Creatine

Strengthen your muscular system with creatine!

Creatine is a molecule stored in the muscles that can help create energy. It is made naturally in the body from amino acids and then phosphate is added to the creatine molecule to create phosphocreatine. Phosphocreatine is the key component of the body's "immediate" energy system and provides enough energy for about 10 seconds of high-intensity activity. Once phosphocreatine is depleted in the muscles, the body must switch to a different energy system while more phosphocreatine is formed.
During high-intensity repetitive efforts (such as team sports), the demand for phosphocreatine is greater than the supply, and this limits physical performance. In theory,increasing the amount of creatine in your muscles will increase the rate at which phosphocreatine is formed between efforts and improve your overall performance.

Consuming creatine, whether in food or supplements, can increase muscle creatine stores. Research has also shown that with proper training, creatine loading can enhance an athlete's ability to perform tasks that require short bursts of power (less than 30 seconds in duration).
