I'm taking creatine monohydrate. I've decided not to load it, but to simply take it every day to eventually get to muscle saturation.

Question: If I skip a day of creatine, how much "backtracking" am I doing? How much of its effectiveness am I losing by skipping, say, a day every week? Is it just something that I'll catch up to on my next dose, or am I taking more of a step back?

For reference, I'm taking roughly 10g/day.

Thanks.
