This works well with: >Glutamine 1800 >GenaSlim MRP >Kre-Alkalyn EFX >Body Builder Increase Muscle Energy, Strength, Endurance And Creatine Uptake! While all the other companies are cutting corners to try and see just how cheap they can sell you creatine, AST Sports Science is networking with leading research groups around the world to deliver you state-of-the-art creatine compounds that are more effective, work better and produce results that the cheap creatine supplements can't come close to. Enter Creatine HSC! “How to Pump Over 87% More Muscle Building Creatine into Your Muscles . . . and Bio-Energetically Fuel the Phospho-Creatine Cycle for Sustained and Continual Muscle Growth Over 247% Greater Than Creatine Monohydrate!”   The Problem . . . We all know creatine monohydrate works! You take it - you get bigger and you get stronger. You feel good, you feel big, and you feel strong. You can knock out more and more reps with heavier and heavier weights. It’s great stuff - at least for the first month or so. Then what happens? Bam! You hit that wall. The weights aren’t moving up like they did at first. That pump just doesn’t seem quite as full as it use to. You know what I mean. This is called diminished creatine efficacy. It happens to everyone who relies on simple creatine monohydrate for their creatine saturation needs. The Solution... One of the fundamental missions at AST Sports Science is to foster a greater understanding into the dynamics of muscle anabolism through nutritional intervention. With this fundamental approach AST Sports Science became the first company to enhance the effectiveness of creatine monohydrate with our original Creatine Complex-5™. Now Creatine HSC™ takes the science of creatine supplementation even further. New Creatine HSC is designed to create a more efficient and congruent atmosphere to increase creatine uptake and utilization within the muscle cell by effectively manipulating the intricate metabolic pathways of the phospho-creatine cycle. Creatine HSC’s scientifically based creatine formula utilizes an advanced substrate understanding to enhance the biological mechanisms of creatine metabolism. Creatine HSC maximizes the integration of creatine carrier sub-pathways and bioenergetic mediation to effectively increase muscle cell creatine uptake, retention and creatine/ATP turnover. Creatine HSC’s innovative “Hyper-Saturation Creatine Complex” incorporates pure HPLC creatine monohydrate with an integrated bio-energetic ATP support system, a dual-phosphate / taurine matrix, unique sodium / creatine mediators and DGC™ (high-glycemic-index dextrorotatory glucose crystals) to help facilitate a desired creatine “Hyper-Saturation” effect. Through this “Hyper-Saturation” effect, Creatine HSC delivers over 87% more creatine to your muscles than creatine monohydrate alone. And it doesn’t stop there . . . Integrated ATP Support System ATP Support System - AST Sports Science is currently the only company researching the bio-energetic complexities of the phospho-creatine cycle in order to gain a better understanding of the co-interactions with relation to creatine / ATP synthesis. These important intermediaries are key to increasing the intensity and duration of creatine’s muscle building effects. By providing these essential intermediate substrates, Creatine HSC fuels a micro-cellular environment prime for continued creatine/ATP turnover long after other creatine supplements have stopped producing results. Other creatine formulas ignore important substrate activity that is involved in the proliferation of ATP. This oversight limits creatine’s potential as a fuel and a buffer for ATP and as a contributor to cell hyper-hydration, protein accrual and muscular growth. Creatine HSC provides the necessary micro-nutrients that take advantage of creatine’s site-specific substrate activity. By providing these bio-energetic nutrients responsible for sustained creatine/ATP turnover, Creatine HSC delivers continual dynamic muscle performance increases month after month after month. Sodium-Creatine Mediators Sodium-Creatine Mediators - Unknown to but a few resourceful researchers, creatine uptake by the muscle cell is sodium dependent - sodium is required for proper muscle-creatine delivery and utilization. Providing the proper intra / extra-cellular creatine-sodium chemical gradient is crucial to “hyper” creatine transport - getting more creatine in the muscle than normally allowed under ordinary cellular-metabolic states. Creatine HSC stimulates sodium-creatine cotransport by increasing the transmembrane sodium concentration gradient. This increased sodium flow into the cell allows a thermodynamic creatine attatchment to “hitch-a-ride” in with the sodium. Creatine HSC provides a precise sodium requirement to increase cellular creatine accumulation through cross-membrane sodium transport. Another first in the industry. Dual-Phosphate / Taurine Matrix Dual-Phosphate / Taurine Matrix - Creatine HSC integrates a precise sodium-potassium phosphate combination along with HPLC Taurine for increased muscle cell hydration and insulin-like mediation for creatine transport to promote an optimum cellular medium for accelerated muscle growth. Controlled studies have demonstrated Taurine’s potent insulin-like characteristics and have also shown insulin potentiating attributes as well. This dual mimic-potentiate ability may foster an even greater net effect in insulin mediated creatine transport. Numerous studies are indicating the more creatine that can be driven into the muscle cell, the more potential for substantial lean mass accumulation. Spiking Insulin! DGC™ - Creatine HSC incorporates new high-glycemic-index dextrorotatory glucose crystals. This new glucose component helps mediate a significant increase in creatine uptake and retention by having a sharp impact on serum insulin levels. This insulin “spike” mediates a “hyper” uptake of creatine into the muscle cell. DGC provides this insulin medium without the overly sweet sensation other insulin spiking methods produce. Not only does Creatine HSC redefine the science of creatine supplementation, but it now provides a refreshing way to do it. Two Muscle-Quenching Flavors! New Creatine HSC comes in two awesome and refreshing flavors - Juicy Grape and Lemon Squeeze. Both are available in 2.2 pound (23 servings) and 4 pound (41 servings) containers. You just scoop it into a glass, add cold water and stir. Creatine HSC mixes instantly into a great tasting, very refreshing and potent muscle-building drink. It doesn’t load you down or weigh heavy on your stomach. Creatine HSC is simple to use and very effective. Creatine HSC is a breakthrough supplement with a unique precision “Hyper-Saturation" formula that integrates the absolute latest in creatine research, delivering you the most scientifically advanced creatine formula available to help you build lean muscle and strength faster. Creatine HSC is defining a new era in creatine effectiveness. Creatine HSC will change the way you think about fast muscle growth! Questions And Answers I'm taking creatine monohydrate and not making gains like I did at first. How will Creatine HSC help me? This is the beauty of Creatine HSC. Creatine monohydrate works great for about the first month. After that - nada, nothing. It quits working. But you don't want to stop because you feel you'll lose all you've gained. Right? Creatine HSC is designed with precise micro-nutrients that enhance the bio-energetic sub-pathways involved in the phospho-creatine cycle. This provides consistent creatine/ATP turnover month after month unlike other creatine supplements that stop working after a short while. Not only that, Creatine HSC will drive more creatine into the muscle than creatine monohydrate. More creatine - more muscle growth and strength - continually. Is there a loading phase with Creatine HSC? Yes. There is a 5 day loading phase when you take 1 serving 4 times a day. After 5 days you reduce your intake to 1 or 2 servings per day. What should I mix Creatine HSC with? That's up to you. I recommend cold water. It comes in two delicious flavors - Juicy Grape and Lemon Squeeze. Both taste fantastic and you'll look forward to each serving. Creatine HSC uses new DGC, a dextrorotatory glucose crystal that produces the important insulin spike but is not overly sweet tasting. Should I take Creatine HSC on an empty stomach or with food? It doesn't really matter. Whatever is most convenient for you. The utilization is probably a little better on an empty stomach. Should I take Creatine HSC before or after I workout? When you take Creatine HSC is not that critical, but it may be more beneficial to take one of the servings during or after you train. You can mix it in a shaker bottle and sip it while you train. This is convenient and refreshing. If you want to take it after you train I would wait about 30 minutes after your workout and then mix up a drink. At this time your body is very "nutrient-opportunistic" - meaning it tends to naturally utilize nutrients more efficiently than other times. How does the spike in insulin from Creatine HSC help creatine uptake? Insulin helps by providing a pathway for nutrients to enter the muscle cell. It does this by binding or attaching to insulin receptors on the cell membrane thus opening the door for nutrient entry. Low insulin levels or poor receptor affinity results in inefficient nutrient uptake. Spiking insulin and providing creatine at the same time enhances creatine ability to enter the muscle cell and remain there. It is strongly believed that insulin has a significant positive impact on increasing muscle creatine uptake. What is sodium's role in Creatine HSC? Ahh, good question. Sodium plays a very important role in creatine transport as well as the cellular transport of many other nutrients. The sodium in Creatine HSC helps to create an optimum transmembrane sodium-creatine chemical gradient. It's this gradient that allows creatine to hyper-saturate the muscle cell by "hitching" a ride into the cell with a sodium ion - this is called symport or cotransport. Not only does it allow more creatine to enter the muscle cell but it gets in there faster as well. This is called facilitated diffusion. What is creatine Hyper-Saturation and what is Hyper-Hydration? Hyper-Saturation, where muscle-creatine level is concerned, is the ability to "trick" the muscle cell into uptaking and retaining more creatine than it would under normal circumstances. More creatine in the muscle cell - more muscle growth. Creatine HSC is designed to promote creatine hyper-saturation via several substrate channels. Hyper-Hydration is when the muscle cell uptakes and retains more fluid than under normal circumstances. Creatine Hyper-Saturation leads to muscle cell Hyper-Hydration. Hyper-Hydrating the muscle cell creates an environment more suitable for muscle growth and strength. How much water should I mix Creatine HSC with? One serving mixes well with about 8 ounces of water. It is important to understand however that Creatine HSC works by increasing muscle cell hydration, which in turn creates a micro-environment ideal for anabolic activity. Creatine HSC is designed to aid in this extra fluid consumption. Proper fluid intake while taking Creatine HSC only helps to produce even greater results. We recommend drinking an additional 6 to 8 - 8 ounce glasses of water a day. *The method of mixing plain creatine in a few ounces of water and then drinking it down quickly is one reason why many people respond poorly to it. When taking creatine of any kind you want to increase your fluid intake by approximately 16 to 20 ounces for every 5 grams of creatine. If the muscle is to become hyper-hydrated, you must supply the hydration vehicle and the hydration source. Should I cycle Creatine HSC? There is no need to cycle Creatine HSC. Unlike other creatine supplements, Creatine HSC is designed to work continuously. You will not experience the creatine/ATP overload that plagues other creatine supplements. With Creatine HSC you get more results faster and longer. Order today using our 100% secure server and get it at the lowest prices in the world with our fast, inexpensive 2 - 3 day shipping!
