Two-thirds of intramuscular creatine is phosphocreatine (PCr) and the remaining one-third is free creatine. Dietary creatine is found primarily in red meat and seafood. Individuals who consume creatine-rich foods may have higher tissue creatine levels than those who do not, such as vegans and vegetarians. Human physiology has a limited capacity for producing creatine on its own, making it important to obtain adequate amounts from food or supplementation. Between 1% to 2% of creatine in the muscle is metabolized and excreted through the urine. Therefore, the body requires between 1 and 3 grams of creatine per day to maintain normal creatine stores, dependent on an individual’s muscle mass, and even more for muscle growth.1 PCr is used to generate cellular energy in skeletal muscles in the form of ATP, which is the fuel to contract muscles and perform other metabolic tasks. Creatine supplementation can promote the capacity of ATP production, which supports performance output.2 Exercise Performance & Muscle Hypertrophy Creatine monohydrate is the most extensively studied and considered the most eective and safe ergogenic supplement for promoting high-intensity exercise capacity and lean body mass during training.1-3 It is well-established in scientific research that creatine supplementation leads to an increase in muscle creatine concentrations, production of cellular energy as ATP, and enhanced anaerobic intermittent exercise performance, which supports on-field performance for competitive athletes.3 Short- and long-term ergogenic benefits of creatine supplementation have been demonstrated in both trained and untrained men and women, including nonathletes.3 Previously untrained females who supplemented creatine while doing 10 weeks of a self-designed training program had 20% to 25% improvements in muscular strength
