I am wondering if anyone has had experience with water retention when supplementing with L Carnitine. I started a cut a few weeks ago and have not lost what i think i should have and much of what i am retaining is water weight. The only supp i can think of that would be doing this would be the L Carnitine.

No.
Sometime they body do what the body wants and you just got stick to working hard and let it run it's course.
Sodium is usually the most common issue here along with to low water intake. But remember to much water and you flush out your elektrolyts and you will be flat and feel like ****, it's a balance you have to take into consideration here.
But why do you want to lose water in the beginning of a cut?

Thanks for the reply! It isnt that i want to lose water i was just wondering why I was retaining it. When I am on creatine i retain water like crazy and I understand that but i stopped taking creatine a week before i started my cut and I am still retaining. Just wanted to know if it was the Carnitine.
