Effect of Creatine Ingestion after Exercise on Muscle Thickness in Males and Females
Abstract
Muscles exercised before creatine (Cr) supplementation have a greater elevation of intramuscular Cr than nonexercised muscles.
PURPOSE: To determine whether preferential increase of muscle thickness could be achieved by ingesting Cr immediately after exercise of specific muscles over 6 wk. Another purpose was to determine if the increase in lean tissue mass (LTM) with Cr supplementation is greater in males than females.
