Sci-MX Creatine Monohydrate (500g)
Creatine supplementation, when combined with resistance (weight) training or intensive, short bursts of power training (such as sprinting) increases strength and lean muscle mass and accelerates recovery, making creatine the most widely used sports supplement.
Body builders, power athletes and endurance athletes can benefit by including creatine as part of a scientific training, nutrition and supplementation plan.
Creatine Monohydrate is the sport supplement industry’s most researched and widely used product.

Sci-MX Creatine Monohydrate
- How does Creatine actually work?
- Creatine Monohydrate is the sports supplement industry’s most researched and widely used product. Sci-MX’s Creatine Monohydrate assists the body’s natural production of ATP which is the fuel used by the muscles during intense muscle contraction. Creatine Monohydrate increases strength levels in weight training or other forms of strength training, which results in additional micro-trauma to muscle tissue, leading to adaptive muscle growth.
- Creatine Monohydrate supplementation also replaces creatine phosphate which would otherwise only be able to occur by the breaking down of existing amino acids in muscle tissue, therefore recovery is also greatly enhanced. By using only the highest quality European produced creatine and ensuring that sufficient fluid is consumed, Creatine Monohydrate can be used completely safely without any negative effects.
- ATP (Adenosine tri-phosphate) which is energy in it's simplest form in muscles, consists of one adenosine molecule and three phosphate molecules, and exists naturally in muscle tissue. When muscles contract against extreme resistance (i.e. when training with weights), a message is sent through neurotransmitters instructing one phosphate molecule to break free from the other molecules in the ATP, leaving 2 behind. This causes a release of energy or a tiny cellular-level “explosion”, which is what allows your muscle to contract against the resistance. This happens millions of times during each contraction.
- Creatine phosphate molecules act as a “donor” molecule to bond to the remaining one adenosine and two phosphate molecules to form a complete ATP molecule again, allowing continued muscular contraction for a further 6 – 18 seconds. Once all available ATP and Creatine Phosphate has been used, no further contraction may take place (muscle failure) until the body has rested for a few minutes to allow ATP to reform.
- Creatine supplementation provides additional Creatine Phosphate molecules to be available for ATP support allowing for a few extra reps, or the same amount of reps with more weight. Creatine Monohydrate increases strength for weigh-training which results in additional micro-trauma within the muscle due to the increased weight being lifted, which in turn leads to adaptive muscle growth. In theory, you are stronger as soon as your creatine phosphate levels have increased, which is within a few days of taking creatine regularly as a supplement.
- By using quality European produced creatine and ensuring that sufficient fluid is consumed, creatine can be used completely safely without any side effects.
Creatine is typically used by:
- Body-builders, weight-lifters and other strength athletes
- Power athletes (Rugby players, Field athletes, Boxers etc)
- Endurance athletes wanting to build muscle or increase strength (Tri-athletes, cyclists, swimmers)
- Anyone wanting to gain muscle or improve all-round sports performance
Sci-MX Creatine Monohydrate Recommended Use
- Loading phase: For the first 5 days of use, take one serving 4 times daily.
- Thereafter, use as follows:
- Pre training: Take one serving (1 rounded teaspoon) 30 – 45 minutes before training with fruit juice or a carbohydrate energy drink
- Post training: Take one serving with fruit juice drink, a carbohydrate energy drink or a recovery drink like Sci-MX’s Rapid Recovery Complex as soon as possible after training.
- Rest days: Take two serving per day, one with breakfast and one with evening meal.
Combining Sci-MX Creatine with other supplements
- Creatine can be safely combined with other supplements such as Sci-MX's L-Glutamine or Amino-Fusion as well as protein drinks.
- Hydration
- Ensure that you drink at least 6 pints of water per day when using creatine
- During hot weather when training for over two hours per day, this should be increased by 3 to 5 more pints

Pure creatine and excellent quality. Easily digested, gives more power and strength in weightlifting or other explosives workouts. Really works perfect with Sci-MX Grow+ Hardcore.
