In the body, creatine is synthesized from the amino acids glycine, arginine
and methionine. Taking supplemental doses of creatine monohydrate can increase
muscle creatine and phosphocreatine (PC) concentrations by up to 40%. These
increases can lead to improvements in muscle energy production and recuperation.
Muscle PC is used as a high-energy substrate (fuel) required for immediate bursts
of energy during high intensity and anaerobic exercise. Body builders and athletes
often notice remarkable increases in muscle cell size and strength, with decreases
in the onset of fatigue and faster recovery.
• Largest reserves of Creatine are found in skeletal muscle
• Supplementation can positively affect muscle size and cell volume
• Studies show its ability to decrease muscle fatigue during performance
and muscle soreness the following day
Take 1 scoop (included) up to 5 times daily or as directed by your qualified healthcare provider. Please refer to Loading and Maintenance Phase supplementation below. Loading Phase (Days 1-5): 1 Scoop (approx 5 g) of creatine 4-6 times daily for the first 5 days. For more precise dosing use the following formula based on body weight in lbs: 0.014 g x lbs Body weight = Total grams for days 1- 5. Maintenance Phase (Days 6-42): 1 Scoop daily. Best results if taken immediately following exercise with High Glycemic carbohydrates. For more precise dosing use the following formula based on body weight in lbs: 0.14 g x lbs Body weight = Total grams for days 1-5.
