Creatine, in it’s purest form, is the most popular sports supplement on the market, second only to Whey Protein. It’s performance benefits are widely reported, leading to its adoption by many athletes as their preferred form of supplementation, and it’s clear to see the reasons why.

Creatine is the fuel source for the energy system ATP (Adenosine Tri-Phosphate), especially relevant to explosive and/or anaerobic exercise, such as sprints, weightlifting and plyometrics.

Creatine can help to increase the storage of Phosphocreatine (PCr) at the site of our muscles. Phosphocreatine or Creatine Phosphate is a Creatine molecule found within skeletal muscle, and it’s this that provides the energy needed for muscular contractions during intense exercise.
