Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: 1. Any known contraindications to creatine supplementation; 2. Any individual who is currently being treated or is diagnosed with a cardiac, respiratory, circulatory, musculoskeletal, metabolic obesity, immune, autoimmune, psychiatric, hematological, neurological, or endocrinological disorder or disease; 3. Current use of performance-enhancing drugs or supplements; 4. History of renal and/or liver dysfunction or disease; 5. Taking medications that affect muscle biology; 6.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Phase I: 1. Pharmacokinetics parameters like F, Cmax, Tmax, AUC0-t, AUC0-infinity, t1/2, and Kel will be calculated from the concentration Vs. time data. Phase II: 1. Changes in muscle strength using a standard plate-loaded leg press and chest press machine, Rep max for leg press and chest press at day 1, weeks 4, and 8. 2. Changes in hypertrophy measurements of each muscle site (cm) of the biceps, triceps, quads, and hamstrings at day 1, weeks 4, and 8. Timepoint: 1) Pharmacokinetic blood samples will be collected at pre-dose [within 45 min before IP administration] & post-dose at at 0.5 hour (h), 1h, 2 h, 3 h, 4 h, 5 h, and 6 h. 2)Phase II At day 1, weeks 4, and 8. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Phase II: 1. Changes in muscle endurance using a standard plate-loaded leg press and chest press machine by measuring Reps to fatigue at 50% 1-Rep Max at day 1, weeks 4, and 8. 2. Changes in the Body Composition using a BIA at day 1 and end of the study visit (week 8). 3. Assessment of changes in the anthropometric parameters such as body weight, BMI at day 1 and week 8. 4. Changes in the rating of perceived exertion at day 1, weeks 4, and 8. Modified to encompass the entire training day. 1-10 scale as to how hard that workout was. The higher the scale score, the harder the workout felt to the participant.Timepoint: At day 1, weeks 4, and 8. | — |
