What Does Creatine Really
Do
Creatine helps volumize
your muscle cells by providing it with increased hydration.
The great thing about
this process is it also takes along with it nutrients responsible
for increased muscle growth. Plus, recent studies show Creatine
has a direct effect on your muscle's "satellite cells". These cells
contribute directly to increasing your muscle mass.
Here's How Else It Works
Your
capacity to lift a weight is limited by the amount of energy, ATP,
available in the muscle.
When your ATP runs out,
your muscle can use creatine to make instant ATP. By supplementing
with creatine monohydrate, muscle creatine stores increase, more
ATP can be manufactured, and increased power and energy result.
Creatine monohydrate is
the only form that has this unique storage feature which allows
you to use it when you need it.
It's Been Around...
Creatine is not new to
the "performance enhancement" scene. Since creatine phosphate is
a major component of the ATP-PC (phosphagen) system, various forms
of creatine have been studied for more than 70 years. The use of
creatine phosphate (phosphocreatine), although promising in the
research lab, did not pan out in the real world.
The creatine phosphate molecules
are just too big to be absorbed intact. Your body must first take
them apart. Once the molecule is disassembled it can then be absorbed
into your bloodstream. The trouble is, it doesn't necessarily reassemble
when it gets inside your muscle cells.
Several recent, reputable studies
have shown that the smaller creatine monohydrate molecule works
much better. It can be absorbed intact, and go right to your muscle
tissue, where it contributes to the synthesization of ATP (muscle
energy).
Why Is The Beverly International
Creatine A Superior Product?
Phosphates...
Hundreds of research studies on the
benefits of creatine monohydrate and phosphates individually and
two very significant studies where creatine and phosphates were
combined.
The creatine plus phosphate group had a significant increase
in muscle power. This translates to more weight on the bar. (Wallace
et al, 1997.)
The combination of creatine plus phosphates out performed the
creatine only group by nearly 300% in aerobic work capacity, i.e.
more reps in the gym with the same weight. (Eckerson, 2001.)
Also, Beverly International's Creatine
contains PURE Creatine Monohydrate, not cut-rate or blended versions.
To receive optimum benefits from creatine
monohydrate, it must be 99% - 100% pure.
Athletes have reported that they
gain much better with Beverly creatine than with other brands that
they have tried.
Creatine is creatine so we must assume
that some of the other brands they've tried are cut-rate or blended
versions of the real thing. But, when you combine the highest quality
creatine with select phosphates, then you have a combination that
regular creatine cannot come close to matching.
Here's what Roger Reidinger of Beverly
International says,
"...So I had our lab find
the correct ratio of creatine and the specific phosphates used
in the research. Then, without me even knowing they added an excellent
orange flavor and a small amount of an extremely high-grade maltodextrin.
(They know that I don’t like simple sugar so they used a predominantly
five-chain saccharide which is classified as a complex carb.)
I received sample A and sample B.
The first thing we did was conduct
a taste test. The lab used the same research proven creatine to
phosphate ratio but varied only the flavoring ingredients. Sample
B won hands down. So that was what we decided to use in our field
study.
Then, I decided to "hog"
the product. For five days I loaded sample B–four servings per
day. A serving is one 12g scoop. And the scoop actually reaches
the bottom of the jar. By the third day I was already noticing
my rest periods were getting shorter and shorter between sets.
Then after the loading phase I took just one scoop (sometimes
two) before training. My weights and reps kept going up.
Now I’ve used creatine before
and I certainly have been training long enough to know when something
is out of the ordinary. Here I am, fifty-five years old and getting
stronger. What’s up with that?
I’ll tell you what! The Beverly
labs created a state of the art supplement that works fast."
How to Know Your Creatine Is Good
Take a good look at the particle sizes of
the creatine you decide to use. The creatine that is closest to
100% pure will have very fine particles, almost like powder. And
when you mix it in liquid will dissolve readily and almost completely
(make sure to use 8 ounces of water for every teaspoon of creatine
to assure there is enough water for it to mix completely).
Finally, after taking it for 1 week and especially
if you're doing a loading phase (see below), you should have picked
up a few pounds on the scale.
WOMEN - please don't be scared by this. If
you're trying to lose fat I know this can be disconcerting. But
remember, your ultimate goal should be to make progress, not just
lose weight. What's the difference?
Here's an example:
I can put you on a program where you gain
5 pounds of muscle and lose 5 pounds of fat. Your overall scale
weight would not have budged but would you look better? Yes you
would!
Creatine and the Increased Muscle/Fat Loss
Connection
What well-made Creatine Monohydrate will do
is help you gain more muscle (with added phosphates even more).
The first indication this is happening is you will gain weight.
This is simply the body retaining water within the muscles.
This is a good thing and is the opposite of retaining water outside
of the muscles cells such as underneath the skin.
What Creatine Monohydrate actually does is
help pull any extra water you have in your body (such as underneath
your skin) and push it into your muscles cells.
Recent studies have shown that this increased
"hydration" in your muscle cells is a signal to your cells
to turn on the muscle-building machinery. In other words, a cell
that becomes super-hydrated will subsequently grow more muscle.
For most men this is exactly what they want.
However, some women are afraid of the word muscle and of picking
up any weight at all, whether it's the bad (fat) or the good kind
(muscle).
Here's what will help convince you this is
what you want to do. In a word...MUSCLE.
You see, muscle is metabolically "active".
This means is requires many more calories just to support it than
an equal amount of fat. It's been estimated that for each pound
of additional muscle you have on your body you will burn an extra
35 calories every day.
This means, for example, if you have an extra
10 pounds of lean muscle on your body you will burn an additional
350 calories! This increased metabolic rate is exactly what will
help you lose fat AND completely reshape your body.
Therefore, more Creatine in your body = more
muscle = more fat loss = a great looking body. This is really the
bottom line when it comes to Creatine supplementation (remember,
as long as it comes from a reputable source).
Results from Creatine Monohydrate supplementation
are most dramatic in athletes who have limited their intake of red
meat.
Eating red meat helps supply creatine to your
muscle cells. However, it takes about 2-1/2 lb. of fresh, uncooked
steak to equal the creatine in one 5 gram serving.
Those eating red meat regularly generally
have a higher concentration of creatine in the muscle starting out
so it sometimes takes a little longer to see dramatic results.

Suggested Usage
For anyone who has reached
a plateau and wants to start gaining again:
Stir one scoop in 4-6 oz. of water. For faster results, consume
4 servings daily for the first 5 days. Then consume one or two servings
daily. Best times are pre or post training, or just before a meal
on non-training days. (This way you get to use the natural insulin
production that occurs maximally with balanced meals rather than
relying on expensive insulin mimicking substances.)
Vegetarians and those on low red
meat diets:
Setup Cycle - 1st week of Usage: 1 scoop of powder mixed with 4
ounces of fruit juice (grape is best) plus at least 4 more ounces
of water, 4 times daily.
Daily Maintance Cycle: 5 grams of
powder mixed with 4 ounces of fruit juice plus 4 ounces of water,
2 times daily.
For maximum gains in strength
and size:
Combine one or two scoops CREATINE SELECTPlus Phosphates with one serving Beverly Mass Maker before
and/or after training. Take it before training and you will have
one of the best workouts of your life – GUARANTEED! Research (and
my own experience) has shown that the combination of Mass Maker
with CREATINE SELECTPlus
Phosphates gives you the greatest creatine uptake possible to
date. There is nothing on the market that can even touch this combo
for fast results.
Creatine is the most intensely studied
sports supplement in history. Every singe study confirms its effects
-- It just flat out puts more muscle on your body. Latest evidence
shows it actually helps with fat loss as well. And it does this
not just by 'volumizing' the muscles either. It actually directs
your body to lay down more muscle tissue.
Finally, with the added select phosphates,
even greater results can be obtained from 'regular' creatine.
Best of all, the price is the same
or cheaper than other brands of creatine on the market. It'a a no-brainer!
500 grams is $30.
(Normally
priced at $30, and for a limited time only, Creatine Select Plus
Phosphates is only $26)
