Everyone's talking about creatine and rightfully so. As the most proven sports nutrition supplement on the market, it holds a lot of clout and can be an asset to both your performance and health span. It may even benefit your road biking or gravel cycling!
There's a lot of new research around creatine, and I wanted to make sure you were up to date, so I invited expert Dr. Scott Forbes onto the podcast to answer some important questions.
Dr. Forbes is an associate professor in the department of Physical Education Studies at Brandon University and an adjunct professor in the faculty of Kinesiology and Health Studies at the University of Regina. He's a certified sport nutritionist (ISSN) and a clinical exercise physiologist and high performance specialist through the Canadian Society for Exercise Physiology (CSEP).
Dr. Forbes and I dig into a lot of interesting areas today, including creatine biology and physiology 101, so you can gain a solid understanding of what it is, how we make it, how our bodies use it and how it provides energy.
We peel the layers back on the following topics and do some myth busting.
Dosing strategies (3!)
Creatine for vegans and vegetarians
Creatine in your plant based burger?
How long creatine stays in your muscles
Creatine and bone health NEW!
Can creatine help ultra endurance athletes preserve explosiveness?
Can creatine improve carbohydrate storage for cyclists?
Creatine and dehydration - myth busting
