What Does CREATINE Do? (Creatine Supplements Explained)

Like https://facebook.com/RussHowePTI Fitness Instructor Russ Howe explains Creatine supplements for beginners in today's video. If you are just starting out and looking into possibly using creatine alongside your post-workout protein shake you might be wondering what on earth creatine is actually supposed to do.. Today, Russ explains in his trademark jargon-free style.

Creatine is a natural substance found in the human body, it provides you with that limited 'punch' of explosive power which quickly evaporates, then builds up again in the background before providing a kind of 'second wind' feeling temporarily. By using creatine as a supplement you are enabling your muscles to possess more of that explosive strength. So what does this mean for your muscle building progress?

Will creatine make you bigger? No. But the extra explosive strength you get from using creatine will. You see, you still have to put in the work in the gym.

There are countless creatine supplements available, countless blends available too (including monohydrate, ethyl esther, kre alkalyn and intra-workout blends) but the blend with the most scientific research and overwhelming proof behind it remains the original Creatine Monohydrate. This is a very affordable supplement and has stood the test of time, no doubt. All of the top bodybuilding supplement companies and outlet stores will carry a range of different creatines for you to try, monohydrate is usually one of the cheapest despite having the most factual research to back it up.

Creatine is completely safe, follow the dosage instructions on your tub to the letter and you will be completely fine using it as a muscle building or bodybuilding supplement. Be sure to drink plenty water, as creatine forces water from the rest of your body into your working muscles to give that full, hard look therefore you require more water than 'regular people' when using a creatine supplement. Also, it used to be commonly believed that you must stop using creatine after two months to get it out of your system but this is no longer believed to be scientific fact, as more recent research indicates continued use of creatine is completely safe (providing you follow your guidelines, that is).
