How Does Creatine Help A Muscle Building Program?

The long sought after muscular physique is obviously not achieved overnight. With the endless publications on "how to build muscle", many of them fall short of really explaining what it really takes to reach your goal with an effective muscle building program. One of the most popular additions to a muscle building program, in the way of supplementation is the very popular "Creatine". We hear of it all over the bodybuilding and fitness world and it's known to be very effective... because it is!

Believe it or not, creatine occurs naturally in the body by way of the spine and in non-technical terms is helps to supply skeletal muscle (muscle attached more directly to your bones) with energy to perform stressful muscular functions, ya know like working out.

Since most of the creatine our body stores comes from foods that we eat, our muscle building program should have a good supply from reliable sources like meats and fish (Sorry vegeterians, your levels tend to be lower due to this fact).

With this in mind you may still be wondering how or why does you body benefit from using creatine from an outside source if our bodies already produce it? Good question.

Now stay with me.

Just imagine, your ready to roar because today with your muscle building program you have good quality heavy sets to perform and your energy levels are high and you just can't wait to hit the steel because your going to put that "eye of the tiger" you've got to your advantage.

Upon stepping up to the weights and psyching yourself for the battle ahead, you grin because you know you've already won. You blast off you first three or four treacherous reps and your creatine levels have spiked... Awesome!

But wait... it's been only about 30 to 40 seconds and sadly your major, useful creatine output is now... GONE.

Sorry, but that's all you naturally get right now. This happens every time you engage in you shirt ripping, muscle building program but you obviously can use a heck of a lot more.

This is why the absorption of creatine in a slightly higher quantities from an outside source can greatly increase performance energy, healing of muscle tissue which means faster gains, etc. But first and foremost, with any muscle building routine is the quality of the workout itself and then what you do before and after that counts the most, and not the supplementation you take or spending hours in the gym.

Too many people have this flipped around.

Learn as much as you can about what a true muscle building program is before you waste your valuable time and energy.
