Creatine Tri-Phase is university tested to elicit 3 TIMES greater muscle size and strength gains than regular Creatine Monohydrate due to the addition of two additional forms of creatine. Recently sports scientists have discovered that adding just the right amounts of Creatine Phosphate and Creatine Pyruvate to Creatine Monohydrate would triple the effects. One recent study published in the Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition found that ingestion of Creatine Pyruvate vs. Creatine Monoydrate resulted in a 17% greater peak plasma blood concentration of creatine.1 The result? Increased peak exercise strength and exercise endurance using Creatine Pyruvate vs. Creatine Monohydrate, according to a separate study from researchers from the School of Sport, Exercise and Health Sciences at the University College of Chichester in the U.K. 2 Another recent study published in the scientific journal Nutrients showed a combination of Creatine Monohydrate, Pyruvate and Alphaketoglutarate provided synergistic effects. In other words, 1 + 1 + 1 = 4.3,4,5
