Creatine

Known for its muscle gain, strength, and anaerobic performance benefits, this is one of the world's most popular sports nutrition supplements.

combate creatine

Among the most popular sports nutritional supplements in the world, creatine supports muscle growth, strength, and anaerobic performance.



Creatine enhances the rate of ATP synthesis, which fuels muscle contractions. It can help you get more reps during weight training exercises, and sustain short burst anaerobic activities like sprinting or martial arts training. This can help maintain your power output for a longer duration.


Jiu Jitsu is a sport that has high anaerobic energy demands. It requires you to go hard for a short duration, recover quickly, and go again. Creatine can be beneficial for those who train hard, regardless of whether they do it recreationally or competitively. 


According to the Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, subjects taking creatine while strength training increased muscle strength by 8% more than those taking a placebo. Researchers also found that creatine enhanced anaerobic endurance performance among elite wrestlers.

Grappling Strength

If you’re a grappler or combat sports competitor, you’re going to massively benefit from creatine. For BJJ athletes, creatine is an important source of energy for high-intensity anaerobic work. This supplement has been shown to increase anaerobic capacity by 15%. This is essential for grappling endurance.

BJJ is intense

Creatine increases the ability of the body to perform high-intensity exercises

Increase muscle size

Muscle size can also be increased while taking creatine

Finish submissions

Creatine Phosphate provides immediate energy, which prevents premature muscle fatigue. This allows grapplers to last longer by strengthening their muscle contraction capabilities. In addition, it allows the body to maintain a high energy output for a longer time.

Recovery

The use of creatine also helps BJJ players recover completely from intense rolling. Recovery between training sessions is crucial. With creatine, this can be accomplished simply and safely.

We develop our formulas with some of the most premium, and cutting-edge compounds available. Why train to get stronger, faster, and healthier, but use supplements with low-quality ingredients?



These superior BJJ supplements are third-party tested for performance-minded men and women who not only want real results, but also want clean, quality products that deliver great value.

What is"Combate" Creatine?

Creatine Monohydrate

Creatine is a naturally occurring substance found in muscles. When you exercise at a high intensity or lift heavy weights, it helps your muscles produce energy

Why use creatine?

Creatine can improve health and athletic performance in several ways.

It increases muscle growth and gives your muscles more energy

Creatine supplementation can result in significant muscle mass gains.

Creatine is one of the best supplements for improving strength and high intensity exercise performance. It works by increasing your capacity to produce ATP energy.

Should You Take Creatine For BJJ?

You should definitely be taking creatine for BJJ!

Creatine can assist in helping prolong the lactic acid buildup in muscle. This is very relevant to BJJ when holding long isometric contractions like gripping a Gi or squeezing a choke. As you hold the position for a prolonged period of time, you'll feel a burning sensation in your forearms or biceps. Creatine can act as a buffer and delay the time to fatigue

How Much Creatine To Take For BJJ?

5 g per day is the standard dose of creatine for BJJ. That is equal to 1 tsp or one scoop. 

It can take up to 28 days to increase muscle creatine saturation, but if you are in a hurry (like a competition around the corner) then you can load creatine. 

For 6 days, 20 g should be taken a day. It can be divided into 3-4 smaller doses per day so that it is easier to digest.

Following this, taking 5 g of creatine maintains muscle saturation

The Science Behind The Supplement

THE EVIDENCE IS OVERWHELMING

Creatine monohydrate is the most studied sports supplement to date

  • Optimizes exercise performance, muscle mass, strength, thermoregulation, recovery, and intramuscular stores of phosphocreatine (PCr) (47).

  • Vital for the energy reaction of every cell in the human body as a spatial energy shuttle and energy sensor (47,50).

  • Vital in bioenergetics (metabolic activity) of the brain (50).

Your Questions Answered

How much creatine should I take daily?

The recommended amount of creatine per day is five grams. Depending on your size, muscle mass, activity level, and personal response to creatine, you can customize your dosage to anywhere between three and ten grams.

Do I take creatine everyday?

Yes. Take it once per day or as recommended by a health professional.

Do I take creatine before or after a workout?

Your goals will determine which is best for you. To support muscle recovery and strength, creatine should be taken immediately before or after exercise, or in the morning to support cognitive function.

How do I know if the creatine is working?

In the short term, depending on your diet, exercise routine, and lifestyle, you may experience:

• Improved exercise performance

• Delayed onset of muscular fatigue

• Quicker recovery between workouts

In the long term, depending on your diet, exercise routine, and lifestyle, you may experience:

• Increased lean muscle mass

• Improved body composition

• Improvements in overall exercise performance and capacity

• Accelerated progress towards your health and fitness goals


Several studies suggest a percentage of the population is a "creatine non-responder," meaning they may not exhibit the same physical response to creatine supplementation as others. Even if you are a non-responder, supplementing with creatine may give you benefits.


Do I need to cycle creatine?

Not if you are taking a high-quality form of creatine monohydrate like "Combate" Creatine. "Combate" Creatine is safe to take on a daily, long-term basis, and cycling is unnecessary.

Do I need to load with creatine?

No. Even though a creatine loading phase may result in acute increases in strength and body weight, daily supplementation over a longer period will lead to similar results.

Is creatine bad for kidneys?

Creatine at normal doses is not bad for kidneys. It is recommended, however, that those with kidney problems exercise caution.


Taking high doses of creatine may lead to an increase in creatinine levels, a biomarker of compromised kidney function.


Several long-term and short-term studies have found that creatine doses of up to 10 grams per day do not negatively impact kidney health. For those with compromised kidney health, long-term research is needed.


Consult your doctor before taking creatine if you have kidney problems.

Will creatine make me gain weight?

Creatine may cause gains in lean mass and improvements in body composition through some amount of water retention.


While higher loading doses can cause water retention that may exceed five pounds, lower supplemental doses will typically cause minimal weight changes outside of muscle mass gains.


Should women take creatine?

Creatine actually offers some unique benefits to women, especially those who wish to maintain their health and quality of life as they age.


Despite the common misconception that it will cause weight gain.Muscle mass and bone density can significantly decline in women over 50.


A combination of creatine and regular exercise can help mitigate age-related declines in health and function and even improve postmenopausal women's quality of life.


Are there any side effects?

Due to creatine's efficiency at shuttling water into the intramuscular compartment, muscle cramping is an emerging side effect.


The most common cause of this is when too little fluid is consumed while supplementing with creatine. Due to creatine's ability to draw water away from the internal organs, if taken too much without water, mild stomach cramps may occur. 


How to avoid this: Simply drink more water! Aim for a minimum of 64oz per day
