HIIT Harder with Creatine

February 1, 2010

This article is for all of those people who have already discovered the joys of HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training)
According to this latest bit of research, supplementing with Creatine results in:

Improved workout performance during HIIT
Higher glycogen load found in fast twitch muscles (18% increase)
No difference in slow twitch muscles
Lower blood lactate levels

Conclusion
For improved HIIT performance, supplement with creatine.
In fact, if you perform any sport/activity that requires intermittent bursts of high intensity effort (hockey, fighting, track & field, etc), creatine should be part of your supplement regimen.
However, if your sport/activity relies on slow twitch fibers and aerobic endurance, creatine may not be for you.
Recommendation
There are a lot of supplement companies selling different types of creatine supplements.
In my experience, AllMax produces one of the better versions. Quality results with no side effect bloating.

Warrior Fit Testimonials

First, I want to say thank you for convincing me to do Tabata! I was struggling to lose weight and Finally I found something that helped! I really appreciate your coaching! - Craig T.

Ever since I was convinced to do Tabata I have seen huge results, I lost 6 pounds and gained energy in the first 3 weeks. I have been working out for 3 months before I decided to do Tabata and I struggled to lose weight. At first I thought "How am I losing weight by bringing my heart rate up then cooling down then bringing it up again?" I don’t know how it works but it does! Thank you!! - Theresa F.

The first day of Tabata, I wondered WHAT AM I DOING - I AM 56 !! Five weeks later I knew that it was what I needed. I learned that I could push myself well beyond my comfort zone and feel good later. I have a marked improvement in physical as well as emotional endurance. - Lyn C.

When I was first told about Tabata I was very excited from the word go, however that excitement stemmed from the fact that I had no clue what it meant. I missed the first week of class b/c I was traveling for work so when I came in during the 2nd week I had some making it up to do. It was hard at first b/c my body wasn't used to working out at such a fast pace, but once I got into a rhythm I started to feel very good. These classes are no joke. If you stick with it you will leave there feeling stronger, healthier and overall better about yourself and what you've accomplished. I would recommend these classes to anyone. Darrin is a great trainer and he'll keep you going with his energy. - Jami L.
