1st Phorm Creatine?

I’ve heard people claim that creatine shouldn’t be taken by women 🙄, that it is a steroid 🙈, and even that it makes you gain weight! This is all FALSE! ❌ Creatine is actually an organic substance created within our own bodies. Naturally, we make about 1 gram per day of creatine (and we also increase our creatine levels when we eat red meat🐮).

Creatine is an energy source for anaerobic exercise, like weight lifting, and it is often taken in supplement form because higher amounts of creatine is PROVEN to increase power and strength 💪🏼 This leads to greater gains in lean body mass! Typically, a serving of creatine (as a supplement) contains about 5g, so you are increasing your levels significantly 🙌🏻 by supplementing your body with it.

•

Creatine helps muscle cells produce more energy because it increases your phosphocreatine stores 🤓, allowing you to produce more ATP energy to fuel your muscles during high-intensity exercise! 💦 This helps you perform better when it comes to things like strength, sprint ability, muscle endurance, resistance to fatigue, muscle mass and recovery. Creatine also increases your IGF-1 levels and stimulates the Akt/PKB pathway, which basically sends a signal to your body to build muscle mass 👊🏼.

There are many different types of creatine, but all of them do very similar jobs (the main difference is how they are absorbed). However, ✨micronized creatine monohydrate✨ is the most commonly known/studied, and it is proven to be highly effective due to its rapid assimilation. There is some debate about when the best time ⌚️is to take creatine, but for the most part, I suggest taking 1-2 servings a day. When I take creatine, I do 1 scoop in the morning and then 1 scoop with my post-workout shake 🥛(Phormula-1 and Ignition).
