What is Micronised Creatine?
Micronised Creatine is a Creatine Monohydrate that has been ‘micronised’, tohelp provide greater uptake by the body. Creatine Monohydrate is one of the mosttalked about sports supplements in sports nutrition. The reason for this is themillions of athletes around the world acknowledging better sports performancefrom using this supplement. Athletes admit that Creatine Monohydrate gives them‘the edge’, and has become the staple supplement for elite and amateurathletes.
Creatine is a natural metabolite our body uses for a number of vitalprocesses. Its most important role may be its part in ‘ATP’ production (ourinitial energy system to produce quick, explosive movements, and muscularcontractions). Through Creatine loading we may create a pool for accelerated ATPreplenishment, for faster access to more energy, delaying training fatigue, topush harder for longer. This may help lead to greater strength gains and musclegrowth.
How may Creatine Monohydrate help?
In addition to its energy support role, Creatine also appears to help cellvolumisation (the effect when muscle cells become super-hydrated). This processmay stimulate greater muscle protein synthesis as well as help allow resistanceto muscle wasting and breakdown.
Weight trainers commonly describe that once loaded on Creatine the fulleffects begin to be noticed. This includes greater ‘pumps’ during training,and a harder visual appearance to their muscles. Along with a noticeableincrease in strength and endurance.
Safe, Pure Creatine
When selecting Creatine there's a broad range of quality. Low grade rawmaterials and production methods result in high levels of impurities in sometypes of Creatine. Worldwide authorities warn about health risks resulting fromthese. Internationally renowned for its strict specifications, high quality andpurity, Reactiv uses patented Creapure® brand Creatine made in Germany www.creapure.com. Advancing Creatinetechnology further, Creapure® is ‘micronised’ for a finer particle size,more easily dissolved – which may lead to more rapid absorption and uptake bymuscle cells.
If you're serious about developing a lean and more toned or muscularphysique, or greater athletic performance, then this is one supplement youcannot afford to train without.
The History of Creatine
A French scientist named Chevreul, in 1832, was the first person to identifyand name a component in meat, Creatine. Another scientist, Justus von Liebigfrom Germany, later confirmed Chevreul's finding. Liebig's own research ledhim to discover that creatine levels in the muscles of wild animals weresignificantly higher than those of animals kept captive.
Creatine – the focus of more than 300 scientific studies – has nowbecome one of the most well known and extensively researched sports nutritionsupplements.
Creatine supplementation has become a common practice among eliteprofessional sports people, as well as amateur athletes for enhancingperformance.

How to use Micronised Creatine Monohydrate
There are 2 ways you can go:
- Traditionally it's suggested muscles first need to become saturated withCreatine, and initial ‘loading’ is recommended. To load consume 5g, 4 or5 x per day for 5 days. Then drop to a ‘maintenance’ dose of 5g, 1 or2 x per day for up to 12 weeks. It used to be protocol to cycle the use ofCreatine like this, with a 3 to 4 week break before resuming. Taking Creatinethis way leads to faster results occurring, usually beginning within 5 to7 days.
- In recent years it's become common practice to skip the loading phase andtake one serve of Creatine every day, this can be followed continuously withouta break. Taking Creatine this way is usually slower for progress to begin, itusually takes around 10 to 14 days, compared to the 5 to 7 days if followingthe loading plan above.
While on a Creatine cycle you should take it EVERY day (do notskip days).
Carbohydrates, particularly High GI Carbohydrates like Dextrose orMaltodextrin, taken with Creatine may help increase uptake dramatically. Thisstack is what has given Creatine the reputation as one of the most effectivebodybuilding supplements. While supplementing Creatine avoid caffeine as it mayreduce the benefits.
