Muscle and Strength
Supplementing with Creatine allows the bodybuilder or power lifter to complete more repetitions or increase the working weight. So too Creatine increases the athletes ability to sprint, jump, kick, throw, tackle, hit etc more often throughout training games. The muscle cell volumisation properties of Creatine directly increase lean muscle mass and help recovery.
Our bodies naturally make creatine, which is used to supply energy to our muscles. It is produced in the liver, pancreas, and kidneys, and is transported to the body''s muscles through the bloodstream. Once it reaches the muscles, it is converted into phosphocreatine (creatine phosphate). This high-powered metabolite is used to regenerate the muscles'' ultimate energy source, ATP (adenosine riphosphate). Creatine is 100% natural and occurs naturally in meat. Lamb contains more than beef. However, the very best source of creatine by far is creatine monohydrate because it contains more creatine per weight of material than any other source.
Tips when taking creatine
- Increase water intake
- Use 10g pure carbohydrates in liquid or powder form with every 5g dose.
- Reduce caffeine intake (interferes with absorption and hydration)
