Hi-Tech Pharmaceuticals Phosphagen Creatine In the early 1990s, EAS introduced its original brand of creatine monohydrate and
thus sparked the first great revolution into the sports nutrition
market. Since the release of Phosphagen, Hi-Tech has worked diligently
to develop a creatine product that would represent the same quantum leap
in nutritional technology and consumer value that EAS’ Phosphagen did.
Hi-Tech understood that to succeed in this mission, it would need to
design a sophisticated creatine product that significantly advanced the
muscle-building potential of the original Phosphagen. Moreover, Hi-Tech
realized that the successful design of such a sophisticated creatine
product could take a decade or more of both in-house and independent
research and experimentation. Hi-Tech believed that the keys to
unleashing the full muscle-building potential of creatine would be to
identify (1) other forms of creatine that might be more bioavailable
and/or have more valuable muscle-building applications than creatine
monohydrate and (2) synergistic compounds that could dramatically
enhance the propitious effects of creatine by enhancing creatine’s
performance in the phosphagen system.
The term “phosphagen” is synonymous with creatine phosphate,also known as phosphocreatine (PCr), which is a phosphorylated creatine
molecule that provides a reserve of chemical energy in the form of
high-energy phosphate bonds that can be rapidly mobilized from PCr.
Since creatine is the rate-limiting compound in the formation of PCr, a
sufficient supply of creatine is crucial to maximize the work
performance capability of the phosphagen system, which directly
correlates to the ability to enhance muscle and strength.
Hi-Tech knew that it would only be a matter of time
before such compounds would be discovered by milestone sports nutrition
research. As the years passed, Hi-Tech funded an abundance of its own
internal research into the matter; and continued to scour the scientific
journals for creatine-based scientific revelations. Hi-Tech finally
reached the end of what has been the longest, most exhaustive road of
research, experimentation, and product development in the history of the
company—the completion of a quest to create a creatine product that
would not only live up to the reputation of the Phosphagen name, but
that would also take that legendary name to a whole new level of
recognition. The result of this quest is a technologically advanced
creatine formulation that allows all those who seek to build muscle to
capitalize on the potential of a fully charged phosphagen system. Almost
exactly twenty years after EAS launched Phosphagen, Hi-Tech
Pharmaceuticals is launching a new and improved Phosphagen!
The new Phosphagen optimizes the benefits of creatine supplementation
because it doesn’t just stop with incorporating the finest ingredients
to enhance creatine availability for utilization in the phosphagen
system. The new Phosphagen also incorporates ingredients that create a
synergistic effect with creatine by enhancing creatine uptake and by
delaying the onset of muscular fatigue during intense muscular
contraction, thereby providing the creatine ingredients in Phosphagen
with the opportunity to continue to perform longer in the phosphagen
system. To ensure an uninterrupted supply of creatine to 1) enhance the
anabolic effect of greater muscle cell volumization, including through
increased protein synthesis, and 2) heighten and more rapidly mobilize
concentrations of PCr muscle fuel to facilitate the rapid and sustained
transfer of high-energy phosphate within the phosphagen system for ATP
resynthesis, Phosphagen contains the most potent forms of creatine ever
discovered: creatine nitrate, disodium creatine phosphate tetrahydrate,
creatine phosphate, and creatine HCl. To ensure optimal utilization of
creatine by 1) enhancing creatine uptake, and 2) by extending the
duration of time in which creatine can continue to energize the work
performance capability of the phosphagen system by delaying the onset of
muscular fatigue, Phosphagen contains guanidinopropionic acid (a
creatine analog), shown to enhance the uptake of creatine into muscle
cells due to its insulinotropic properties, and beta-alanine, shown to
delay the onset of muscular fatigue through complementary pathways that
provide additional time for creatine to contribute to the formation of
PCr and resynthesis of ATP, thereby extending the duration and/or
intensity of muscular contraction to elicit a greater hypertrophic
response. Without the contribution of these synergistic creatine
ingredients, the phosphagen system quickly becomes bottlenecked during
periods of intense muscular contraction, well before the potential
contribution of creatine can be fully realized. Thus, the bodybuilder
who wisely chooses Phosphagen over another typical creatine product will
have the extra amount of muscle fuel available to complete the one
additional rep required to pull the trigger for muscles to grow.
Phosphagen is back to maximize the creatine endgame
with renewed thinking outside the creatine box, which represents what
creatine supplementation is capable of achieving in its most aggressive
and comprehensive form. Phosphagen, by Hi-Tech Pharmaceuticals… more
weight… more reps… more muscle!
