What is Creatine

Creatine Improves Muscle Mass, Provides Increased Strength & Endurance

A compound the body synthesizes and then utilizes to store energy. The storage of energy occurs when phosphate molecules are attached to creatine to create creatine phosphate. Creatine phosphate is capable of donating phosphate to ADP in order to make ATP. ATP can then be converted into ADP with release of energy.

Creatine provides increased endurance and strength by helping muscles create fast energy during exercise. Creatine also draws water into muscle cells, increasing the overall size that can result in growth.

Creatine in Sports

Outside of protein supplements, creatine supplements are the most talked about and effective muscle building and performance supplements on the planet. Creatine supplements can provide a 10 to 15% boost in overall strength, and a lean muscle mass gain of up to 10 pounds. Because of their popularity, creatine supplements are extremely cost-effective, giving an athlete the most bang for his supplement buck.

Creatine supplements come in powder, pill or liquid forms. Because the powder form of creatine is most popular, many creatine supplements are flavored and sold as powdered drink mixes. Common flavors include grape and fruit punch.

Creatine is a popular supplement used by athletes, bodybuilders, wrestlers, sprinters, as well as others who wish to gain muscle mass looking to increase maximum power and performance in high intensity anaerobic repetitive work. Creatine supplements are one of the most cost effective supplements to choose from. On average you can expect a performance increase of up to 5 – 15%. Creatine has also been shown to reduce muscle fatigue following a training session.

Types of Creatine

  • Creatine Ethyl Ester is a highly soluble form of Creatine that uses the fat transport mechanism of muscle cells to enter quickly to replenish muscle Creatine stores.
  • Tri-Creatine Malate is a new form of Creatine that can enter the Krebs Cycle (The process that synthesizes the high energy compound – ATP) faster than traditional monohydrate to maximise energy for training.
  • Di-Creatine Malate is a slower absorbing version of Tri-Creatine Malate to enhance the sustained release properties of Cre8 Carnage.
  • Micronised Creatine Monohydrate has been scientifically proven to increase lean body mass, muscular strength, endurance and overall athletic performance.
  • Creatine HCL is a stable acid salt of Creatine and is a medium absorption hybrid
  • Creatine Anhydrous is the most pure form of Creatine and is not bound to other transport molecules giving it a slower absorption time – ideal for a sustained release formula.
  • Creatine Gluconate is Creatine bonded to Glucose. This improves Creatine’s intestinal absorption as it is absorbed in a manner similar to regular glucose, a fast-digesting sugar.
  • Tri-Creatine Orotate delivers a 3:1 molar ratio of Creatine to Orotic Acid. Orotic acid is a precursor to Carnosine and helps make Creatine more available to boost cell levels of Creatine Phosphate.
