OLIMP Creatine Monohydrate Creapure is a dietary supplement which contains the highest quality micronised creatine monohydrate, Creapure^®. Nowadays, creatine is considered to be one of the best legal anabolic agents, used by both sport amateurs and world’s top athelets of various discplines.

Creatine synthesis takes place mainly in the kidneys. Then it is transported to the liver, where it undergoes final transformations. Finally, under the influence of the Na+ ions, it reaches skeletal muscles through cell membranes. Its main function is binding high-energy phosphate residues and their distribution to cells for the purpose of ATP production.

ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is a source of energy for all working muscles. When ATP releases its phosphate groups, the energy is produced (ATP becomes ADP). Creatine enables the return of phosphate to ADP, which restores ATP.

Creatine action
During intensive workout, the energy required to resynthesis of ATP comes mainly from anaerobic glycolysis and phosphocreatine breakdown. During physical effort, ATP restoration from phosphocreatine declines up to three times when compared to the speed ratio in case of glycolysis. Creatine supplementation during intensive workouts raises the ability of the body system to produce ATP, so that it causes an increase in muscle strength and mass.

Moreover, creatine directly affects muscle mass hypertrophy. It causes an increase in the size and hydration of muscle cells, and hence creates a perfect anabolic environment. Bigger number of repetitions or lifting greater weight are possible due to creatine supplementation. It gives also the body system a reason for adaptation, which results in muscle tissue gain.

You should note that creatine increases physical capacity and efficiency of intermittent workout, when you take regenerating breaks between exercise series (e.g. resistance training, weightlifting, sprint), and does not affect durability. Using creatine during long-distance run will not bring any benefits. It is caused by the fact that ATP restoration possible thanks to creatine takes only 10 seconds from the beginning of an exercise.

Creatine supplementation brings optimal effects when it is combined with properly chosen strength training and diet. It is recommended for athletes of both speed disciplines and strength disciplines, such as weightlifting, martial arts, short-distance running and shape sports. Creatine is recommended during intensive and short workouts.

Creapure^® is a form of creatine monohydrate patented by AlzChem (Germany). It is commonly considered to be the highest quality, the purest micronised form of creatine monohydrate available on the market. Numerous studies demonstrate that it has positive influence on the increase in strength and energy production. Micronisation of creatine improves its absorption and effectiveness of action.

To sum it all up, OLIMP Creatine Monohydrate Creapure is a dietary supplement intended for both endurance athletes and people doing recreational physical activity. The best effects will be achieved by people doing resistance and speed trainings. Regular supplementation increases physical capacity, non-fat muscle mass and muscle strength.
