Creatine is a nitrogenous organic acid that occurs naturally in the body and helps to supply energy to all cells in the body, primarily muscle, by increasing the formation of adenosine triphosphate (ATP).  Our bodies naturally produce creatine from amino acids primarily in the liver, pancreas and kidneys.  It is then transported in the blood for use my muscles.    Most people only store about 60-80 percent of their potential creatine leels.  Studies have shown that supplimenting with creatine enables individuals to elevate their creatine stores an average of 30 percent.  This additional creatine gives the body the necessary ingredients to produce more adensine triphosphate (ATP) during the creatine kinase process and to ultimately generate more work.  In short-More work equals more muscle stimulation and more muscle stimulation equals greater muscle size.  Creatine does for the body builder what carbohydrate loading does for the long-distance runner:  It provides more energy-producing materials, which provides more work to be generated.

Creatine can be found in various forms:  Creatine Monohydrate, Creatine Ethyl Ester and Creatine Magnesium Chelate.

Creatine can be found in the supplement list of some proteins blends ranging from 2-5 g.  It will however be found in the matrix of most all nitric oxide pre-workout boosters, again ranging from 2-5g.  Some charts will suggest a dosage as high as 20g per day.  I would start out in the range of 2-5 g to see what your body’s tolerance level is.  Many manufactures have you loading with double doses.  It is my experience that the timing of loading was more important than their recommendations of doubling up.

A quick Google search on this supplement 9creatine) will give you scores of reading material on which product renders best results, their studies and suggested applications.  Having worked with multiple brands, I have found the claims of increased performance to not only be true, but very beneficial in building more muscle.

I am currently using Nutrix Research’s Volu Gro, a creatine monohydrate blended with a waxy maze starch which acts as an accelerant in the transport of creatine.  Since using the Volu Gro, I noticed a huge difference in my body’s ability to process and utilize creatine.

If you choose to supplement with creatine, make sure to hydrate well.
