Shake recipes for you

In certain instances, the supplement creatine can support your exercise performance and prolong creatine depletion. It can be taken in either a tablet or powdered form. The powder is often mixed with a high-sugar sports drink or can be mixed with other ingredients to make a shake. As part of a shake, creatine can be made up during the day as a lean snack to replenish your muscle creatine stores.

Here are some great Creatine recipes to help you devise a supplementation plan that works best for you.
