Alright so I had a question to ask you guys. I started going back to the gym about a week or so ago. I stopped working out around late august when I left for school but now I figured I might as well go back to the gym. So anyway my weight fluctuates between 145-147 pounds usually. I've heard that in order to get the most gains I need to take creatine before I work out then a protein shake after I work out. Could you guys give me a few tips such as how much creatine/protein I should take and when exactly I should take them?

Man , in all honesty , it doesn't matter WHEN you take your creatine It can be first thing when waking up , or last thing before going to bed , it doesn't really matter.
There are 2 things you need to know about this.
1- Creatine is more easily absorbed by your body if you take it with some simple carbs (don't overdo it tho)
2- Some supp companies label creatine as pre or post workout because of the other ingredients the supplement has in it (Like muscletech cell-tech and dymatize power-tech , they both have 80g of sugars in them ) The only 2 times when you can take simple carbs without worrying too much is first thing in the morning and immediately after the workout , your body will always use them for energy instead of storing fat etc
So as long as you keep an eye out on the other ingredients , you should be fine
