Rational & Study Design

Why I created this challenge:

Amidst the buzzing social media endorsements and robust academic findings, creatine supplementation has shown promising potential in boosting muscle growth and enhancing training performance. Research validates its efficacy, yet anecdotal claims and gym lore continue to shape its controversial reception. This study aims to bridge these divides, offering rigorous, real-world data to confirm or challenge prevailing narratives. It’s crucial to determine creatine's true impact on strength training outcomes.

My Objective for You:

This challenge aims to systematically measure how daily creatine supplementation affects your muscle growth, perceived exertion, and sleep quality within an 18-week period, ensuring rigorous, real-life insights into its efficacy and safety.

Aims & Objectives:

The primary aim is to evaluate the effectiveness of creatine on enhancing muscle mass and strength in adults engaged in regular strength training. Our objective is to assess changes in muscle growth, training exertion, and sleep quality, providing a comprehensive understanding of creatine’s benefits.

Significance & Impact:

This challenge is significant as it seeks to substantiate the benefits and potential limitations of creatine through scientifically measured outcomes—muscle growth, perceived exertion, and sleep quality. By documenting these effects in a structured protocol, this study will provide valuable insights that could influence training regimens worldwide, helping athletes make informed decisions about supplements.
