Creatine

In today's blog i am going to be explaining to you guys another workout supplement called Creatine, i am going to be explaining what it is, and its advantages and side effects. (First creatine is a nitrogenous organic acid that occurs naturally vertebrates and helps you supply energy to muscle Creatine was identified in 1832 when Michel Eugene chevreul discovered it as a component of skeletal muscle, which he later named creatine after the Greek word for flesh) this specified information was used from wikkipedia since i didnt know a better way to explain the definition.

Creatine is just a substance found in some foods such as animal meat, fish bassicly anything that has a skeletal tissue. But it only has a few, which is why the creatine supplement was made since it has more substance than found in foods. Creatine will help you developpe muscle quicker when working out, since your muscles will retain more water wich will make them grow. If you chose to take this supplement you need to take it wisely, so here is a step by step instruction on how to take it.

The following information is from ehow.com

STEP 1 : Begin with a loading dose. The loading dose ranges between 12 and 20 g, depending on your weight and the frequency and intensity of your workouts. The larger you are and the more frequently and intensely you work out, the higher the dose.

STEP 2: Take the loading dose in divided doses. Try for three or four times a day.

STEP 3: Continue the loading dose for five days.

STEP 4: Switch to maintenance phase after completing the initial loading dose phase. Again, the maintenance dose depends on your weight and the frequency and intensity of your workouts. The maintenance dose is between 4 and 12 g per day.

STEP 5: Take in divided doses three or four times a day.

STEP 6: Use immediately after exercising, as it will help repair your muscles faster.

STEP 7: Take for one to three months.

That is how to take creatine the right way, but there is something you got to remember when taking creatine you need to drink plenty of water so at least two gallons per day, since if you do not drink as much water your kidnees could get affected by the supplement and may lead to kidnee problems, failure.

I have not personally used this supplement, but I know people that have for some it worked and for some not as much. But before taking this supplement consult your doctor and ask him if this is right for you and if it is safe for you to take this.
