Phosphagen was the first creatine product shown in university studies to increase lean mass
and strength in weight-training athletes. Over the past five years, numerous university
studies have confirmed creatine helps athletes increase size and muscle strength, even in
the most rigorous trials.
Phosphagen is a nutrient formed from three specific amino acids and is also found in various whole foods, such as red meat. (Phosphagen is derived from sources free of animal products.) Phosphagen saturates muscle tissue with creatine, an essential precursor component of muscle energy production. By increasing muscle creatine concentrations, athletes can recover more quickly between bouts of intense physical activity, such as weight training. Over 95% of the body’s creatine pool is stored inside muscle cells. And, leading scientists believe most athletes can store more creatine than is normally obtained from food sources. Phosphagen supplementation helps "saturate" your muscles with creatine. When the muscle holds extra creatine, it has more reserve fuel for intense exercise which can result in substantial increases in power. (Many Phosphagen users report significant increases in strength after using Phosphagen for only a week.) It’s also believed that when a muscle cell takes in more creatine, it also brings water along with it. This promotes a phenomenon called cell volumizing or cellular hydration. When a muscle cell is hydrated, it gets bigger, and this may create improved conditions for new muscle growth. Cell volumizing does not involve water retention outside of cells - the type that can produce a puffy look. It promotes intracellular hydration. Think of your muscle cells as individual water balloons (muscles are made up of 70% water). If you can get more water inside of them, they get bigger and firmer - if you let water out, they get smaller and softer. When muscles start to swell with creatine and water, and then you train with weights, it can cause an extraordinary "pump." |
