This was my first time using creatine. I've read that monohydrate is the most throroughly tested and its not worth wasting money on so-called improved formulas. I've also read that the german "creapure" is recommended for quality. This jarrows forumla is inexpensive and uses creapure as the source. I noticed significantly increases in energy and improvements in muscle feel/mass.

Creatine monohydrate is a naturally occurring compound found in the human body and obtained in the diet primarily from meat and fish. Creatine provides a critically important store of energy which helps to power short bursts of intense muscular activity, as in sprinting or weightlifting. Once inside the muscle cells, creatine is phosphorylated to form creatine phosphate. Creatine phosphate helps recycle ATP for energy production in muscle cells. As a result you have increased explosive energy, ATP energy and overall power. I take 5-6 grams of creatine daily with sweet iced tea, whey protein or post-workout with 5 grams of glutamine. No loading phase is required! Since taking it I noticed I have more explosive energy which helps me push out a few more reps with a given weight. More reps with more weight mean more muscle. I also notice that it decreases recovery time and soreness. I like the fact that Jarrow Formulas uses Creapure creatine monohydrate which is known to be the purest and best quality creatine available. Also this creatine is very convenient because it comes with a scoop unlike the most creatine products sold by other brands. But don't forget to drink a lot of water. Креатин моногидрат - натуральное вещество, которое содержится в организме человека и поступает в организм в основном из мяса и рыбы. Во время выполнения высокоинтенсивных упражнений потребность АТФ в работающих мышцах значительно увеличивается. Креатин помогает восполнить АТФ для обеспечения мышечных клеток энергией. Я пью по 5-6 грамм креатина в день вместе с холодным сладким чаем, сывороточным протеином либо с 5 граммами глутамина после тренировки. Не нужно никакой фазы загрузки! После того, как я стал пить креатин, я заметил увеличение взрывной силы, которая помогает мне сделать на несколько повторений больше в каждом упражнении. Больше повторений с большим весом означает больше мышц. Я также заметил, что у меня сократилось время восстановления между тренировками и уменьшилась крепатура!

Let's be honest: I like Jarrow. This stuff might be the same as any other creatine, but it works. I opted against the micronized form, since most of the research ascribes perfectly good effects to the regular monohydrate. What I do know is that creatine helps me with recovery, and I feel comfortable with half a scoop to a whole scoop a day, but I only do this intermittently. I've noticed during marathon study sessions that creatine can give a small burst of mental clarity and wakefulness. I believe this is a matter of direct and stable fuel for neurons, but I'm not sure. Creatine is considered neuroprotective, but as in all things, moderation is golden.

Creatine is a myostatin blocker so it can help you building muscle fast. However, creatine can also lift your DHT ( dihydrotestosterone ) levels, so it may be good idea to take it with nettle root and/or saw palmetto, if you dont want become muscle man without hair.
