Effects of Creatine Supplementation on Exercise Performance in the Heat in Endurance-Trained Humans (original) (raw)

This study investigates the effects of creatine supplementation on exercise performance in endurance-trained individuals, particularly focusing on performance in heat conditions. It reviews historical context and previous research findings regarding creatine's role in muscle metabolism, its efficacy in various types of exercise, and the prevalence of differing responses among athletes. The results indicate that creatine supplementation does not yield significant performance benefits for endurance activities, and in many cases, shows no effect on performance metrics.
