Increased Strength & Power: Creatine helps regenerate ATP (adenosine triphosphate), the primary energy source for short, high-intensity activities like weightlifting and sprinting, leading to improved strength and power output.
* Enhanced Muscle Growth: By providing more energy for intense workouts and reducing muscle protein breakdown, creatine can contribute to increased lean muscle mass. It also draws water into muscle cells, leading to a "fuller" look.
* Improved Exercise Performance: Athletes engaging in activities requiring quick bursts of energy (e.g., weightlifting, sprinting, team sports) can experience enhanced performance, work capacity, and anaerobic threshold.
