What are the benefits of using Optimum Nutrition Micronized Creatine Powder?
Optimum Nutrition Micronized Creatine Powder is a pharmaceutical grade ingredient that hosts a number of benefits, which you’ll get to experience in the form of recovery and results. When taken as a part of a well-planned training program and healthy diet, Creatine from ON can provide the following:
Fuel for Muscle
Once ingested, Creatine becomes a usable form of energy as ATP. This is what your muscles are using to complete all of the high intensity exercises you’re putting them through. Increased ATP means better performance.
Amplified Recovery
Creatine is useful for supporting the recovery and maintenance of muscle tissue. It doesn’t directly impact muscle growth; rather it ensures your performance and recovery are boosted so you can lift more for a longer period of time resulting in bigger muscle tissue. (1, 2)
Loading Phase
When using Creatine, you should begin with a 20 gram serving each day for the first 7 to 14 days. This will ensure complete Creatine saturation. From that point forward, only use the standard one serving of 5 grams.
