Pro Line, 100% Pure Micronized Creatine Monohydrate, 1kg

Creatine is a naturally occurring amino acids (protein building block) made by the combination of Arginine, Glycine, & Methionine. Creatine is involved in many different functions in the body.  Its main roles are to provide energy for the muscles, enhance protein synthesis and increase cell volume.

What does 100% Pure Creatine Monohydrate do?

100% Pure Creatine Monohydrate can lead to gains in lean muscle mass, improve workout performance and intensity, enhance strength and power, and stimulate protein synthesis.  Creatine allows for better regeneration of ATP allowing an athlete to train for longer periods of time, reduces muscle fatigue and soreness and speeds up recovery time.

100% Pure Creatine Monohydrate provides the following key performance enhancing benefits:

• Improves Performance
• Builds Energy and Stamina
• Increases Strength
• Aids in Protein Synthesis

How does Creatine Work?

Creatine is converted into creatine phosphate or phosphocreatine and stored in the muscles, where it is used for energy. During high-intensity, short-duration exercise, such as lifting weights or sprinting, phosphocreatine is converted into ATP, a major source of energy within the human body.

ATP is the primary source of energy for muscle contraction as well as other bodily functions. ATP can then be used to provide additional energy to the working muscles. You can derive creatine from food sources but the amount can be so small that you would need to eat an excessive amount to the get the same benefits you would from supplementing.

How does Creatine Stimulate Muscle Growth?

Creatine allows you to perform increased work loads while training and as a result of additional energy, increased protein synthesis is stimulated.  When an abundance of creatine phosphate is stored in the muscle, the muscle will retain more water in its cells and become what is known as “volumized.”  The more volumized a muscle is, it will promote the synthesis of protein as well as deter the breakdown of protein.  Increased protein synthesis along with training will lead to muscle growth.  There is also scientific evidence that shows supplementation with creatine causes muscle tears to repair themselves quicker.
