Creatine Monohydrate

Description

Increases lean muscle mass when used in conjunction with a resistance training regimen. Improves performance in repetitive bouts of brief, highly-intense physical activity (e.g. sprints, jumping, resistance training) by increasing intramuscular energy levels. Specially formulated with no fillers to ensure purity, and micronized to deliver enhanced solubility in water or juice.

In their quest to run farther, jump higher, and outlast the competition, many athletes have turned to a variety of performance-enhancing drugs and supplements. Creatine is the most popular of these substances, believed to enhance muscle mass and help athletes achieve bursts of strength.

Part of the reason for creatine’s popularity might be its accessibility. Creatine powder, tablets, energy bars, and drink mixes are available without a doctor’s prescription at drug stores, supermarkets, nutrition stores, and over the Internet.

Although creatine is a natural substance, it hasn’t been well-studied over the long term. Researchers still aren’t sure what effects it might have on the body, although there is evidence that in the short term, creatinine is safe for high-intensity resistance training.

What Is Creatine?

Creatine is a natural substance that turns into creatine phosphate in the body. Creatine phosphate helps make a substance called adenosine triphosphate (ATP). ATP provides the energy for muscle contractions.
