After protein, I believe most people interested in any body shaping should look to creatine supplementation to help them achieve their goals. Using creatine http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Creatine_supplements as a supplement has been around since the early 1900's. It came into the public eye largely due to its use by Olympic athletes in the 1992 Barcelona games.
It does not matter what your final goal is, creatine has been shown in studies http://pharmrev.aspetjournals.org/content/53/2/161.short to be effective for increasing muscle mass. If your goal is to “bulk” up, the use is a no-brainer.
Those who are trying to lose body fat and are not interested in becoming bigger, never fear, creatine is still your friend. By building more muscle your body will need more calories to operate daily. Raising your daily caloric needs and controlling your intake is the best way I know to shed body fat.
When selecting a creatine supplement there two things to consider. Creatine Monohydrate is the form with the most evidence of effectiveness. Most creatine is manufactured in three factories around the world.
