Creatine supplements are no stranger to me. I have been in body building for years, but the results that I experienced with American Sports Nutrition Creatine Powder were over the top. I have never experienced such high-intensity performances before. Normally I go to body building competitions to watch, but last week not only did I join the competition but I won! I haven’t seen a faster way to get stronger and buffer. I’ll definitely continue to use American Sports Nutrition Creatine Powderfor many many years to come!

American Sports Nutrition Creatine Powder 1000g
American Sports Nutrition Creatine has been on the top when we talk about “What Works for Strength and Muscle Mass” The Worlds top sports scientists have reviewed creatine and concluded the following about the effectiveness of creatine:
-
Promotes greater gains in increasing FFM (Fat Free Mass, which
includes muscle mass).
-
Increases muscle fiber size; hypertrophy.
-
Increases muscle mass.
-
Increases myosin.
-
Improves maximal strength.
-
Improves maximal power.
-
Improves single-effort sprint performance.
-
Improves worked performed during repetitive sprint performance.
-
Improving performance during exercise of high to maximal
intensity.
Studies have shown that athletes who exercise and supplement their diet with creatine will increase the total creatine levels within the muscle, which can correlate with higher levels of creatine phosphate and greater energy storage in muscle. Creatine phosphate is the energized form of creatine and functions as an energy storage reserve. Creatine by ASN will not only assist you in exercising longer but will also help in quicker restoration of energy and strength after program sets.
It is a proven fact that from taking creatine you can get bigger, stronger muscles, faster. Theses studies reveal that creatine users consistently experience greater gains and improvements over the people who were not taking creatine.
Here is some information on why creatine works.
Improving muscle bioenergetics is one of the main ways creatine works. One thing that occurs in your muscles from strength sport and resistance training is that you stimulate your type II muscle fibers to grow. The type II muscle fibers are the ones that can get big and strong, and are also called fast-twitch muscle fibers because they can contract very fast to generate tremendous power, when compared to slow-twitch muscle fibers.
For example, a 100 meter sprinter has big muscles to blast off of the starting line and run as fast as possible for a short distance. This takes big strong, well conditioned fast-twitch
muscles. Compare this to the marathon runner, who is faster then most people, but runs half as fast as the sprinter, but can do it for much longer. This is because marathon runners have well
conditioned their type I, slow-twitch muscle fibers, with very little type II muscle fiber development.
Type I muscle fibers contract slower when compared to Type II muscle fibers, they also have the ability to keep contracting for longer periods of time, at this lower level of intensity. American sports nutrition creatine powder is excellent for everyone and research suggests that creatine supplementation during athletic training and competition may actually help reduce athletic injuries and adverse effects of athletic training.

What is Creatine?
|
|
|
Creatine is actually a nutrient found naturally in our bodies, and it's made from a combination of the three amino acids arginine, glycine and methionine. The main function of creatine is providing energy to your muscles for movements, especially quick and explosive movements. Your body gets its creatine from food and/or supplements. You can imagine then, that taking extra creatine monohydrate will help you out during workouts.

What is creatine serum?
|
|
|
In short, creatine serum or liquid creatine is just the liquid form of creatine monohydrate. So instead of ingesting a creatine powder, you're taking in a liquid solution of creatine. Liquid creatine claims to have the same benefits as powder creatine:
- Provides extra energy to your muscles during workout
- Gives you a energy boost through ATP regeneration
- You can gain weight, size, and strength

|
What is Tricreatine Malate?
|
|
|
Tricreatine Malate is a highly soluble creatine salt that provides much greater increase in creatine bioavailability over regular creatine monohydrate. This compound is creatine bound to malic acid. Malic acid is a naturally occurring kreb cycle intermediate, meaning that malic acid plays a crucial role in our natural energy producing cycle.
Malic acid coupled with the effect of creatine as in Tricreatine Malate offers much greater ATP production over conventional creatine monohydrate. Additionally this creatine salt will not make you hold subcutaneous water like creatine monohydrate would since there is no water molecule in its chemical structure. All hydration will occur in the muscle cell. Also, Tricreatine Malate does not cause stomach discomfort and does not need to be loaded.

|
Are there adverse side effects of using creatine?
|
|
|
No studies have show creatine to have any serious adverse side effects. However, some studies have show atheletes to experience gas, bloating, and diarreah problems with over using creatine. This problem went away after lowering the amount of intake. No long term side effects of creatine have been shown either. Positive effects include more energy, strength, and weight gain.
|
|
|
|
|
I heard that creatine is unstable in solution, is this true?
|
|
|
Yes, it's true that creatine is unstable in solution. It eventually degrades to become creatinine, a useless substance to your muscles. So it's recommended that you shouldn't leave your creatine dissolved in water or juice for too long (no longer than 6 to 8 hours).
