Creatine works by binding with a phosphate molecule to form creatine phosphate, which can then donate its phosphate to re-convert ADP to ATP, increasing energy production locally. The best time to take creatine is post-workout, although taking it pre-workout is also an option. Fasted workouts are preferred for three out of five training days.
