The Hidden Fat Loss Benefits Of Creatine Supplements

By Russ Howe


Despite being one of the most researched supplements in the bodybuilding industry, creatine is a product which still causes a mountain of confusion. One of those areas of confusion is the weight loss benefits it holds within it's power. Due to the large reputation it has as a muscle building product, most exercise fans are totally unaware that using this product is also one of the top weight loss tips the fitness industry has to offer.

One of the key reasons it is often overlooked is that the genre of losing weight is so dominated by fat loss pills and fad diets. Many people are a little scared to use products which have a reputation for building lean tissue. []

However, researchers recently confirmed what was believed in bodybuilding circles for many years - it holds multiple benefits for those who are looking to lose unwanted body fat! To get to grips with the finer details on why this happens, you must first understand what it actually does. Basically, it's responsible for your body's ability to perform short explosive moves such as jumping and lifting heavy things. Your body produces the substance naturally, but only in very small amounts.

This particular product first came to light around twenty one years ago, during the 1992 Barcelona Olympics, where it was used by sprinters. Based on the information above, you can probably already see why sprinting coaches wanted to use this product. Given that most sprinters complete a 100 meter dash in around 10 seconds, and most 200 meter runners compete their race in around 19 seconds, increasing the body's natural resources of this explosive substance would significantly enhance their ability while out on the track. They were right to do this. Take this into a gym context and it could result in an extra repetition being performed where previously you lacked the explosive strength to do it, or perhaps an extra weight being used.

Simply using the product itself isn't going to automatically make you build a ton of muscle, of course. This comes down to how you apply the extra explosive strength you gain from it. It simply enables you to work slightly harder at maximum intensity.

When it comes to the multiple fat loss benefits it holds, you have to look at more recent times. Studies recently showed us that the more lean tissue our body holds, the more effective the body is at metabolizing fat for fuel both inside and outside of the gym.

Further still, recent studies showed it was also responsible for pushing excess water into the cells of the major muscles and helping them to achieve a leaner, harder appearance.

Creatine is not only one of the most researched and established bodybuilding supplements on the planet, it's also one of the best kept secrets when it comes to weight loss tips. Now that you know the details, don't be afraid to make the most of these proven facts.
