Creatine+ for men and women

How Creatine works

1. During short, intense activity, our muscles use a form of energy called ATP.

2. Creatine works by regenerating ATP really quickly, so the muscles can keep producing power

3. So, by raising your body’s creatine stores, you provide a larger ‘battery’ to draw energy from.

4. Aside from providing a source of energy, creatine also influences cell hydration, cell activation, protein synthesis signalling, mitochondrial function and brain energy metabolism.

Energy, strength & muscle growth

More available ATP means you can exercise for longer, lift heavier and push through more reps - leading to bigger muscle gains when taken in conjunction with exercise.

Enhanced endurance

By increasing high-intensity exercise capacity, creatine helps users exercise for longer.

Faster recovery

Faster ATP regeneration supports quicker recovery between bursts of exercise.

Misconceptions about “bulking up” and lack of awareness have kept creatine off many women’s radars, despite strong evidence showing its unique advantages for women’s fitness, brain health, and overall well-being.

Lower baseline stores

Women often have lower dietary creatine intake and lower muscle creatine stores per kg than men, so typically respond well to supplementation.

Hormonal changes during menopause

The decline in oestrogen throughout perimenopause and menopause has a huge impact on muscle metabolism, bone turnover and the ability to produce creatine itself. Declining oestrogen contributes to an acceleration in the loss of muscle mass and bone density. Combining creatine with regular resistance training can be a targeted tool to help offset the decline.
