Currently I'm taking xenadrine before my workout for a quick energy boost and creatine after. But I've heard that caffeine interfers with creatine uptake in muscles. But I've also heard that a recent study showed people who took caffeine with creatine had,same results as those who didn't take caffeine. Any info on the subject matter would be appreciated Thank You!

Well, caffeine is a thermogenic compound that will let you sweat and loose water, and the anabolic effect of creatine is fullfilling your muscle-cells of water. So just take creatine at a different time, later and much earlier

Right, try to have at least 2-3 hours difference between creatine/caffeine consumption.

how about u guys try doing a cycle or something, like 8 weeks on creatine, for mass, ex. low reps heavy weights for the creatine cycle, then do 8 weeks of cutting up and toning, ex. high reps, lighter weights and cardio, then use the xenadrine/hydroxycut
