creatine pre contest

[nmk85roll]

Because of water retention, when do most BB's cut out creatine before a contest?

I usually load up 5 weeks out, then cut it completely 3 weeks prior.. I noticed last year I dropped my water weight faster that way..

No carb/creatine drink like Phosphagen HP or anything, just plain creatine in my pre/post workout shakes, 10g per serving..
