Creatine Monohydrate
The most extensively studied supplemental form of creatine for short bursts of intense exercise and resistance-training adaptations.
Creatine participates in the phosphocreatine system that helps regenerate ATP. Supplemental creatine monohydrate has human research for strength, power, and measures of lean mass, especially alongside resistance training. Early changes in lean mass can include water; individual benefits and safety depend on context.
