ABSTRACTBackground Modern sports nutrition has evolved through discoveries in muscle metabolism and dietary supplementation. Advances in muscle biopsy techniques revealed how diet influences muscle energetics and exercise performance. The establishment of the Metabolic Research Laboratory provided a platform for further investigation, leading to the identification of creatine monohydrate (CrM) as an effective ergogenic aid.

ABSTRACTCreatine supplementation is an effective ergogenic aid to augment resistance training and improve intense, short duration, intermittent performance. The effects on endurance performance are less known. The purpose of this brief narrative review is to discuss the potential mechanisms of how creatine can affect endurance performance, defined as large muscle mass activities that are cyclical in nature and are >~3 min in duration, and to highlight specific nuances within the literature.

2. Materials and methodsThe study was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled intervention. The intervention included 6 weeks of dietary supplementation in addition to laboratory and performance familiarization for pre- and post-testing. A convenience sample of participants included degree majors and degree minors in the dance program at the University of Idaho.
