Creatina no Desporto

Authors: Fernando Jorge Vieira Ribeiro;

Creatina no Desporto

Abstract

A creatina, descoberta há 186 anos, tem vindo a ser investigada devido ao seu papel central no metabolismo do músculo esquelético. Atualmente é um suplemento ergogénico muito popular entre atletas de variados desportos e apesar da sua eficácia ter sido comprovada por um elevado de número de estudos, os mecanismos de ação por detrás das suas propriedades ergogénicas ainda não estão completamente esclarecidos, sobretudo aqueles relacionados com o aumento do peso corporal/massa muscular. Nesta monografia pretende-se fazer um resumo das aplicações da creatina no desporto, bem como descrever, de acordo com a evidência existente, os mecanismos por detrás das suas propriedades ergogénicas, inclusive aqueles relacionadas com a hipertrofia muscular.

Creatine, discovered 186 years ago, has been investigated due to its central role in skeletal muscle metabolism. It is currently a very popular supplement among individuals performing various sports and, although its effectiveness has been proven by a number of studies, the mechanisms of action behind its ergogenic properties are still not fully understood, particularly those related to muscular hypertrophy. In this monograph, i intend to summarize the applications of creatine in sport, as well as describe, according to current scientific evidence, the mechanisms behind its ergogenic properties, including those related to muscular hypertrophy.
