What Type Of Creatine Should You Purchase?

By Russ Howe


Much like all sports supplements, the world of creatine products is very murky and easy to get lost in. We are going to clear up the facts today, showing what the product does inside your body and which blend of it is superior.

As fitness instructors, we know that half the battle with supplements is won by being able to see the difference between facts and sales pitches. Every supplement you come across these days tells you that is' bigger, badder and better than anything else before it.

You're going to see exactly what this product is capable of doing and which blend is the most scientifically proven to work.
Watch Personal Trainer Russ Howe PTI give a jargon-free explanation of how creatine supplements work.


Whether you are taking an Ethyl Esther, Monohydrate, Kre-Alkalyn, Intra-Workout formula or any other blend of this supplement the task it has is the same. This product is designed to increase your explosive strength. It's as simple as that.

So how does it do this?

Remember back to when you were a kid and you used to run as fast as you could for as long as you could. What happened? Usually you'd experience a tingly, burning sensation in your legs. This pain is called Lactic Acid and is your body forcing you to stop or slow down. You can't perform explosively until your body has regenerated it's levels of this very substance we're discussing today. Once it's ready, you'll be able to enjoy a second wind.

So by taking on board more of this substance via the use of a sports supplement you increase your body's ability to resist that 'stop' button. You can run harder for a short period longer. This is why athletes use it.

Think about it. If you have more of this substance in your bloodstream while you hit the gym you will notice an increase in your explosive ability. This could mean one more rep in the bench press or a new personal best weight.

With all the different blends out there, however, it can be almost impossible knowing which one to purchase.

When it comes to science fact rather than science fiction, one blend stands above the others. Believe it or not that blend is Monohydrate. That's correct, the oldest and in most cases the most affordable of the whole range.

Even if we combined the scientific studies performed on all the other blends they wouldn't amount the the pile of studies ran on monohydrate over the years. It's been the bodybuilding industry's leading product for two decades for good reason. But in a bid to part you with your money, companies make up myths such as 'bloating' and 'water retention', both of which have been proven wrong in studies, to get you to purchase more expensive newer products.

They have to get you to go from spending $10 per month to $50, remember, so scare tactics work quite well.

When it comes to how to build muscle with creatine it's important to stick to the basics for the most scientifically backed up results. Over the last twenty years or so, this one particular muscle building supplement has enjoyed more tests and studies than any other product of it's kind. Simply put, you cannot go wrong with it.
