100% Creatine - Bodybuilders
What is creatine?
Creatine is an organic compound, found in vertebrates, where it facilitates the recycling of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the cell's energy currency, primarily in muscle and brain tissue. Recycling is achieved through the conversion of adenosine diphosphate (ADP) back to ATP through the donation of phosphate groups. Creatine also acts as a buffer storing energy in the cell for muscle contraction.
Common questions:
- Why Monohydrate?
Monohydrated creatine is absorbed more slowly, because it has undergone simpler filtration. It is used by thousands of athletes and non-athletes and is easily absorbed.
- What is it for?
Creatine is best suited for those looking for hypertrophy and increased strength. In addition to accelerating post-workout recovery, it increases muscle resistance to effort, accumulates water between muscle fibers, and with that the muscles gain volume without the body becoming swollen.
- How to take creatine?
The recommended amount may vary depending on the health status of each individual. Generally, consumption guidance is approximately 3 grams per day. It can be taken before or after training. Creatine is best absorbed after training with a carbohydrate source.
