| Creatine is needed in muscles for the
body to be able to produce energy. Endurance athletes, body builders,
and active individuals have been supplementing with creatine for
increased energy, strength, and faster muscle growth. During intense
exercise, muscle is fueled by a substance called ATP (adenosine
triphosphate) because the body stores only a limited supply of this, it
must be continuously replenished during intense exercise. By
supplementing with creatine monohydrate (the substance that the body
uses to produce ATP), energy is produced at a faster rate allowing the
muscles to perform more efficiently. Fx Sport’s 100% Pure Creatine is
scientifically tested pure creatine monohydrate with enhanced
biovoluminization for a longer lasting "pump", increased muscle strength
and intensity. This ideal powder formula mixes easily into juice and is
a great choice for body builders, weight lifters, runners, wrestles, and
more. |

How does Creatine work?
The major challenge for athletes and physical fitness buffs is
to keep the muscles and brain energized. This is especially the
case for endurance athletes who also need to recover their
muscle power quickly after an intense workout and exercise
Muscle contraction and relaxation are driven by energy in the
cells provided by the compound adenosine triphosphate (ATP).
Muscles have only a limited supply of ATP, however. The ATP
levels are rapidly used up during exercise, particularly in
short, intense bursts of anaerobic activity. Many an athletes
needs immediate replenishment of energy in the muscle during
demanding regimens, such as sprinting and weightlifting. In
these situations, the body produces ATP: The energy currency in
the cells, which powers muscle movement and control
How much and how efficiently is ATP produced depends upon the
amounts of creatine phosphate stored in the cell. Creatine is
the biomolecule, which produces ATP. Creatine is indigenous to
the human body, and is produced by the liver and stored in the
brain, skeletal and heart muscles where it serves as a ready
pool to produce ATP. Creatine is the key substance that helps
speed up the ATP refueling of the muscle. More creatine in the
muscle means greater energy production that allows muscle to
work longer and at higher intensity
How does creatine help the muscle perform at higher efficiency
and recover faster? Creatine saturates the muscle to convert it
into ATP. This conversion takes place in the absence of oxygen
and is, therefore, used as an anaerobic pathway for energy
Creatine is, however, more than just an ergogenic nutrient: It
has a voluminizing effect on the muscle. Cell voluminizing, or
cellular hydration, involves binding of water to the muscle
fiber. In turn, this binding gives rise to the "pumped" look.
Since water is bound inside the muscle, the athletes using
creatine do not have the "puffy" appearance. In other words, the
muscle looks larger but, more importantly, has improved strength
and has high energy and intensity. That allows the athlete to
recover faster and have more energy for each training session.
Creatine has been made popular by athletes, as they constantly
strive to achieve peak performance and maximize the body’s
muscular performance. Studies show creatine increases muscle
strength and endurance thus enhancing athletic performance.
Medically creatine can rebuild lean tissue after periods of
convalescence, muscle wasting illnesses or the natural decline
in muscle tissue that occurs with age.
Benefits of Creatine:
• Increases muscle mass
• Enhances muscle performance and energy
• Helps prevent muscle wasting
• Increases muscle strength
• Fast working, quick dissolving powder |
