Creatine monohydrate is extremely popular among bodybuilders and athletes because of its proven ability to build muscles and increase endurance levels. Many bodybuilders have reported that creatine monohydrate can increase lean muscle density in as little as two weeks. For this reason, it is often use by bodybuilders who need to “bulk up” before a competition.

Creatine monohydrate provides an intense ability for the body to quickly increase the strength and energy generated by their muscles. Although creatine occurs naturally in some foods, most bodybuilders prefer to use supplements because they would have to eat unrealistic portions of certain foods in order to obtain the amount of creatine they need. Creatine works with phosphate in our bodies to create a substance that is known as phosphocreatine.

All professional bodybuilders and athletes know that creatine plays a key role in helping them to achieve their performance and fitness goals. One reason why it is so popular is its proven ability to build lean muscle while boosting endurance.

Simply put, creatine promotes more energy in muscles. In fact many bodybuilders report a significant increase in muscle mass after taking creatine for only a few weeks. Several studies have confirmed that creatine has the ability to increase muscle strength and size, while also boosting endurance levels. Creatine is not a drug and it is not a steroid. In fact, creatine occurs naturally in the body because it is produced by amino acids.

At one time, straight creatine was the most popular supplement on the market. At that time the research team at Muscle Tech went to work to develop a far superior workout supplement that could add even greater advantages for bodybuilders. After many months of experimentation, the researchers at Muscle Tech came up with what they believe is the best possible combination of ingredients to boost bodybuilders’ performance.

The name of the formula that they produced is Muscle Tech Cell Tech and soon became the most popular bodybuilding supplement on the market. The Cell Tech formula immediately became the new standard and is still embraced by bodybuilders and weight lifters from throughout the world. Today, Cell Tech is considered to be the superior bodybuilding supplement in America.

Creatine ethyl ester is a substance that aids athletic performance and muscle development. It is a modified version of creatine monohydrate with an ester attached. The ester allows this creatine compound to “kick it up a notch.”

Regular creatine monohydrate has substantial benefits but it is not absorbed well in our bodies. The ester allows the compound to be more easily absorbed. Some athletic trainers and body builders believe that creatine ethyl ester does a superior job in increasing muscle strength, muscle mass and the overall performance of bodybuilders and athletes.

Creatine loading is an area open to much discussion. If it is necessary or not does not seem to have been proven or decided.

So what actually is creatine loading?

Well it is what some of the creatine manufacturers recommend when you first start using the supplement. You take a higher dose of creatine each day say for the first 5 days and then onto a lower maintenance phase for a few weeks. There are many different variances based on amounts and frequencies. One example would be take a 5g dose of creatine 4 times a day and for the first 5 days then 2-5g for 5 weeks, then no creatine for 1-2 weeks. If you do not load initially a normal intake is 5g daily.

Creatine is known as an energy replenisher. What it works in replenishing is a molecule called ATP (Adenine Tri Phosphate). The ATP is broken down in our bodies and in doing so releases the energy for our muscles during contraction. What actually happens to the ATP is that it loses a phosphate molecule and then it becomes ADP (Adenosine Diphosphate) with only 2 phosphate molecules. The ADP then is replenished through phosphates from the phosphocreatine molecule (creatine + phosphate) which leaves the bi product creatine to be excreted from our bodies. From the contraction a bi product is the production of lactic acid. This is stored in our muscles and by getting to much of this the muscle contractions stop, you will feel your muscles ‘burning up’ and heavy and have to stop the set. It’s a funny feeling when you just can’t lift anything anymore, even with the lightest weight. I find this is the most notable when doing a bicep workout.

Just a quick news update on the well know nutritional supplement Creatine. It is to be used in a large study in America by the US National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke to determine if the supplement can help to slow the progression of the degenerative brain disorder - Parkinson’s disease.

There are drugs at present that can reduce the symptoms of Parkinson’s disease but there are none at present that can slow its progression.

The study will take place across 51 medical sites across the US and Canada and will involve 1720 people who have early stage Parkinson’s disease. Half will be receiving a placebo and half creatine and each participant will not know what they are receiving.
