Collection: Creatine

Myocytin Creatine is a creatine delivery system. It helps your body absorb and use the Creatine Monohydrate needed for muscle growth and power. It is a proprietary trademarked blend developed by Body Science & supported by real sports science research studies.

Creatine helps the body's muscles produce energy when they're depleted, such as after significant exercise or weightlifting. Athletes and professional and amateur bodybuilders take it to gain muscle, strength and improve performance.

Creatine production can be influenced by diet and exercise with more meat consumption and excessive training increasing production levels. Supplementing the creatine in your body increases the amount of phosphocreatine stored in your muscle cells as it helps you produce more adenosine triphosphate (ATP), a high-energy protein molecule that enables better performance during exercise.

Claims of Creatine Monohydrate's superiority over other creatine forms — e.g., creatine ethyl ester, buffered creatine and liquid creatine — are supported by numerous studies and creatine Australia observers. However, similar claims that other creatine forms are better than monohydrate aren't supported in the same way by science.

At least one study pegged Creatine Monohydrate as better than ethyl ester and liquid creatine in increasing creatine in the blood and muscle cells. Another study looked at cycling performance, which found it experienced a 10% bump after study participants took Creatine Monohydrate powder.

Research that documented regular usage of up to 30 grams of Creatine Monohydrate per day over a period of five years without any adverse side effects also supports Creatine Monohydrate as a very safe version of creatine. Weight gain is common if you take higher doses of the supplement, but that's not necessarily negative for people looking to gain muscle. The same depth of research doesn't exist for other forms of creatine, which is why people buy Creatine Monohydrate online.

According to the International Society of Sports Nutrition, using creatine while training may enhance recovery by reducing the risk of injury or hastening the recovery period. For instance, there's evidence suggesting that creatine loading before intense exercise, as well as glycogen loading, can help restore depleted glycogen levels after exhaustive regimes.

This evidence accompanies further research suggesting creatine supplementation may reduce muscle damage, acknowledging that athletes or those wanting to engage in intense training can take creatine supplements and tolerate higher training levels.

As Creatine Monohydrate has osmotic properties, it helps retain small amounts of water and may result in hyperhydration, allowing higher tolerance to exercise in the heat.

Sports scientists also note that Creatine Monohydrate can affect the brain with "neuroprotective benefits". Therefore, it may aid recovery from brain-related injuries, such as damage from concussions, as well as improve learning and memory.
