Great for athletes, CREATINE 6000 ES supports muscle growth and increases strength when combined with diet and weight training. Ideal for a variety of sport-related activities.
Creatine, as found in Creatine 6000 ES, is a contributing factor to the primary energy source used for muscle contraction. In the muscle fiber, creatine exists in two different forms: as free creatine and as creatine phosphate. This latter form of creatine makes up two thirds of the total creatine supply. When your muscles contract, the initial fuel for this movement is a compound called ATP (adenosine triphosphate). ATP provides its energy by releasing one of its phosphate molecules. It then becomes a different compound called ADP (adenosine diphosphate).
Unfortunately, ATP stores are limited. So for muscle contraction to continue, more ATP must be produced. Creatine phosphate is used for its phosphate molecule, which it gives to ADP, thereby recreating ATP. This ATP can then be used again as fuel for more muscle contraction. Creatine has also been shown to increase protein synthesis and can also help increase intracellular water in muscle cells. This is called cell volumization. Cell volumization creates the proper environment for protein synthesis, enabling increases in mass. Creatine 6000-ES provides 5 grams of HPLC-tested pure creatine monohydrate per serving.
