Everybody responds differently to Creatine. How does the average recommendation of 5 grams affect your performance? Pre or post workout?

I'm one of the unlucky few who didn't respond to creatine in any way. Didn't even increase weight for water retention.

That sucks. I remember reading about "non-responders" as a teen. I then quickly realized I was not one. Have you tried different variations - mono, ethyl ester, etc ?

PO2 (Anonymous) - Though your comment holds truth, it doesn't negate the fact that many simply do not have a response to additional Creatine.

I've tried it many times throughout the years every since it was introduced. I keep coming back to it hoping it will work for me if I used a different protocol from the ones I've already tired before.
I had great expectation in the beginning with all the press about it. Unfortunately, it doesn't work for everybody, and I'm one of those people. I still have some left over in my cupboard from the last time I tried it a few years ago.

I drink it as a pre workout with my pre workout dink I use creatine isolate what it does is it hydrates you cells and muscle fascicles and creates a longer and better pump and can reduce the lactic acid in your muscles for less soreness. It last a couple hours in the cellular level.

Seems you misunderstood the question. I wasn't asking on a scientific level. I'm asking what it does for YOU.
