Yeah.
I just want to spend more time here.
There's still a lot of things to do.
Yeah, for sure.
This was great.
Thank you.
We're done.
No, thanks for having me.
I'm really excited as well.
Absolutely.
Yeah, like it's really evolved over the last 40 years.
It's gone from athletes getting bigger, stronger, faster.
Now we're looking at potential benefits on bone health.
brain health, cardiovascular health, even in children and during pregnancy.
So it's evolved from just the young male athlete to pretty much anybody on the planet is now considering creatine either in their diet or supplementation.
So for the next few hours, super excited to talk about all aspects of creatine and the evidence-based research behind it.
Well, because it works from a muscle performance perspective.
So really, it basically increases the ability to produce ATP or maintain it during an exercise session.
So, for example, when you're doing, you know, squat or leg press or even running, you're doing muscle contractions and phosphocreatine, which is what we're going to be talking about today from creatine supplementation.
It really maintains ATP or adenosine di-triphosphate levels.
