General Information for Creatine
Creatine is a naturally occurring substance within our muscle cells, and it is one of the primary sources of cellular energy. Whenever you blink your eyes, scratch your elbow, chew your food, or perform most other movements, it’s creatine—or rather, the creatine phosphate energy system—that’s powering you through it.
As a supplement, creatine has been popular since the 1990s and has been the subject of hundreds of studies since then. It comes in numerous forms, but none have been shown conclusively to be as effective as the cheapest and most popular variety, creatine monohydrate.
Benefits of Creatine Supplementation
Increased lean muscle mass, particularly with strength training[1,2]
Improved muscular strength[1,2]
Decreased muscle soreness and lower levels of exercise-induced inflammation[3]
Improved blood flow during training[1]
Improved performance during high-intensity training[1,5]
Many athletes follow a “loading” protocol of around 25 grams a day for five days, but this isn’t essential. But as Ciaran Fairman notes in the article “Do I Need to Load With Creatine,” you can also get the same benefits with around 5 grams a day, potentially with none of the mild side effects of the loading protocol, which include stomach pain and water weight gain. The catch is that you have to take it consistently. Don’t skip it!
Recommended Dose:
5 grams, taken whenever works best for you. If it helps you remember, take half of your daily serving pre-workout, and the second half post-workout.
