WHAT IS CREATINE AND WHY DO WE USE IT?
WHAT IS CREATINE AND WHY DO WE USE IT?
Creatine is an amino acid that is found in the muscle tissue. The three components it consist is methionine, glycine, and arginine. This amino acid is consider as a erogogenic (muscle building) supplement that increase strength, performance, and muscle mass. It can also increase growth hormone production and ATP Levels which is known to benefit not only athletes but non-athletic and aging individuals.
Creatine can be found in foods such as salmon and beef.
In case you didn’t know, ATP is short for Adrenosine triphosphate; its a substance that fuels your muscles like gas for a car. Creatine purpose is to re-synthesis of the muscle ATP.
What are some types of Creatine?
What are some types of Creatine?
1. Creatine Monohydrate
a) Also known as the original creatine. It is very cheap and maybe the most effective however it is not very soluble in water and your body may have a hard time absorbing it. Some feedback from individuals may include water bloating and diarrhea because of water retention in the stomach.
2. Micronize Creatine
a) This is creatine monohydrate but this is micronize, meaning that molecules of creatine is divided for easier absorbtion. This resolve some of the flaws of creatine monohydrate, such as absorbtion rate and reduce stomach discomfort however it is more expensive and require a load phase.
3. Creatine Ethyle Ester (CEE)
a) Is is a micronize creatine with ester attach. This item allows 99% absorbtion. Remove the need of a load phase. This item has an side affects but it is expensive and taste terrible.
4) Creatine Serum
a) It can be considered to be creatine dissolve in water. It is very easy to use (just put a drop under the tongue). It is a item that is mix with vitamins and amino acids. Another item with no loading phase but this item may not work for everyone. It is expensive. It is consider less effective than monohydrate in building muscle mass.
5) Efferrescent Creatine
a) This is creatine with surgar and sodium, and chemicals that cause bubbles in liquid. This item item is not only expensive, but it has a better taste and better absorption. The downside of this product is that it has surgar and sodium, which is something that the body need to decrease.
6) Creatine Citrate
a) This consist of other molecules that increase absorption. It is slightly water-soluble; it gives less stomach discomfort. This item is expensive and require double dosage to have the same effect as monohydrate.
7) Tri & Di Creatine Malate
a) This device is bonded with other molecules to increase absorption. Tri is the most soluble and absorbent of the two. This creatine is a compound of molecules created from malic acid. This improve recovery and decrease amount of fatigue doing workout. It has a cell volumizing effect. It is very expensive. Health effects are unknown.
8) Kre-Alkalyn
a) This item has a very positive feed back. It has no load phase. Has the leased bloating and stomach discomfort but it is very expensive.
9) Creatine Orate
a) Another type of creatine bonded to a molecule is orotic acid. This is a precursor of nucleic acid which help optimal cell functioning and energy use from ATP. It increase ATP Levels. It has more energy than monohydrates. It decrease symptoms of fatigue. It is very expensive. Some effect has not been proven by studies or test.

PRODUCT REVIEW: NEON VOLT- BERRY POMEGRANATE FLAVOR
PRODUCT REVIEW: NEON VOLT- BERRY POMEGRANATE FLAVOR
This is not only my first pre-workout but my favorite one as well. It is powered by an ultra high energy stimulant complex containing caffeine, rhodolia, olive leaf extract, and rauwolfia. Together, with there powers combine creates intense focus and energy which makes any human being immortal.
The secret ingredient is beta alanine. This guy supports muscular endurance and improve performance. Also this causes awesome tingling sensation if your into that. This item also prevents lactic acid from accumulating too quickly in your muscles, which often occurs doing training.
It also contain agmatine sulfate which is a relative to arginine, an ingredient that increase pump and nitric oxide production. The deference is that agmatine sulfate is more effective, allowing blood to flow more freely to the muscles so that they can absorb nutrients more efficiently. In conclusion, it intensify muscle contraction, pumps, and more muscle vascular.
Just to note, this product has no creatine.
Also, I never experience a crash with this product.
SCORE: 10/10

Product Review: C4 50X- Blue Rasberry Flavor
Product Review: C4 50X- Blue Rasberry Flavor
It is said to be one of the strongest pre-workout and it is....to a point. This is a complex item. Compared to the original C4 it appears that they added double the dosage of the original ingredients. Another main difference it they added two new ingredients called Tea Cor and Xcellicor.
Tea Cor is a chinese herb that reduces our tolerance level. Meaning, we will always have the same experience everytime we take a serving.
Xcellicor, also known as the coco crystal, is a new type of caffeine that is more absorpable to the body. However our body will absorb it a bit slower than other caffeine types but the reason for this is to build our endurance.
Base on my experience, the only downside of this product is that I did feel bloated at times. I had experience an intense crash. But this experience only happen twice...maybe I didn’t eat right that day. Tell me how you think.
Note: This product has creatine and beta alanine. (you will get some tingles)
SCORE: 7/10

1. Drink lots of water
2. Some people will not respond to monohydrates or other items
3. Creatine can cause people to bloat or retain water
4. Taking creatine with surgar and protein will increase absorption
5. Take surgar 1 hour after taking protein and creatine. This will cause a spike
Creatine Cocktails
Creatine Cocktails
Creatine Cocktails is usually a mix of other aminos such as glutamine and taurine. Other cocktails can be mix with nitric oxide. The ideal is to maximize its effects.
The most popular cocktail is the combination of NO and creatine. They always give their users much more muscle gains than when using nitric oxide or creatine. So if you crash and don’t worried about putting lots of supplements in your body, then this is for you.
We’ll Be Running Low on Tuna This Coming Season
We’ll Be Running Low on Tuna This Coming Season
The United States Tuna fishing Fleet is fighting for business survival since the cost to fish in the Pacific Ocean has dramatically increase. The total number of boats in this fleet is 37; these are the people who provides 60% of our nations Tuna. This will not only destroy some businesses, it will also create a concern to American consumers since it is expected that there will be a decrease amount of tuna in the market.
American operators agreed in August to pay $67 million for 5,700 days of fishing in 2016. In late November a dispute arrived, some fleet operators argued that they can not pay for the allotted days because of the recent falling of tuna prices. This problem has led other operators to claim economic hardship or leave the fishing business.
Former Chief Operations Officer, Hines, state that the standards for canned tuna sold to U.S. Consumers would be diminished if American boats aren’t taken out of the water. He then added, “Our vessels are the most regulated, the most managed,”. Foreign nations “don’t have the stringent controls that we have for management of fisheries.”
