Product Description
When working out, the thing that most strive to achieve is muscle tone and/or buildup, and no product makes that easier than Micronized Creatine Powder. It’s well known that Creatine helps to stimulate the growth of muscle as well as produce Energy. Optimum Nutrition has created a product designed to take full advantage of those natural traits.
How Creatine Works
It even provides you with the ability to perform more intense and frequent training sessions to get the results you’re looking for.
Creatine is able to increase your energy levels. Other than the obvious benefits of feeling more energetic, your body is also pushed to start a process called protein synthesis. This is where protein and amino acids are produced by the body more often. There are many ways in which Creatine produces energy.
One way that is especially effective, is the conversion of ATP to ADP. Known as Adenosine triphosphate and Adenosine Diphosphate, the process of storing and using energy takes place completely inside the mitochondria of the ATP cells. After the food you eat is oxidized, it produces high energy electrons that are then kept inside of ATP phosphate bonds. Break the bonds apart and energy is released through the loss of a phosphate molecule.
In order for the process to repeat and produce even more energy, Creatine phosphate provides ADP with its missing phosphate molecule so that it turns back into ATP, starting the process all over again.
One more way that Creatine works in an athlete’s favor is that once Creatine is stored in the muscles, it makes the cells of those muscles more capable of holding water. Once they’re super hydrated they’re more likely to aid in protein synthesis while helping to prevent the protein in your body from breaking down.
Building Muscle
All of this combined works together to increase your muscle mass. It even provides you with the ability to perform more intense and frequent training sessions to get the results you’re looking for. The outcome is impressive no matter who you are, as evidenced by the fact that with the help of Creatine powder women have been able to build up muscle just as quickly as men. It's well known that women generally have a tougher time building their muscle mass than men do. It’s a mark of this supplements’ effectiveness that gender is no longer an issue in terms of building muscle.
