Frequently Asked Questions

What is “micronized” creatine?

“Micronized” creatine is a type of creatine that’s been processed into smaller particles than standard creatine monohydrate. This smaller particle size helps improve solubility, mixability, and absorption. It also reduces stomach discomfort and bloating associated with creatine monohydrate supplementation.

EFX Sports
Kre-Alkalyn EFX Creatine Monohydrate Powder - Blue Frost (7.76 Oz. / 110 Servings)
Kre-Alkalyn EFX Creatine Monohydrate Powder - Blue Frost
Traditional creatine supplements have pH levels below 7, which immediately begin converting to creatinine — a useless waste product when mixed with a solution. (The lower the pH of the solution, the quicker the conversion.) Kre Alkalyn EFX, however, has a multi-patented pH range of 12-14, resulting in a buffered, stable creatine monohydrate. This means you only need 1.5-3 grams with no loading, no bloating, and no side effects! Creatine monohydrate is the single most studied sports supplement ever. It’s the top pre-workout and post-workout compound for athletes and bodybuilders who want to improve muscle mass, increase power, enhance performance, and accelerate muscle recovery. Kre Alkalyn EFX is 99.9% pure creatine monohydrate—science-backed, clinically tested, and safe for professional athletes looking for a legal edge! Kre Alkalyn EFX flavored and neutral powders easily mix in water or your favorite drink. We include a scoop that gives you a precise serving with no guessing. Just grab the bottle from your gym bag, scoop, mix, and get to work! Kre Alkalyn EFX was invented by Dr. Jeff Golini, the exclusive formulator of EFX Sports. He developed the patented manufacturing process that produces the only creatine monohydrate with a pH level of 12-14. No other creatine product can make that claim! EFX Sports is part of a very small, elite group of brands that actually make their products themselves. That’s why we can unquestionably guarantee Kre Alkalyn EFX always meets label claims and is 100% banned-substance free. When you use Kre Alkalyn by EFX Sports, you have the purest, most potent creatine product available anywhere!

Grind harder with pre-workout performance supplements

Fuel your exercise sessions before you even hit the gym with our extensive selection of pre-workout supplements. You’ll be able to power through your hardest-hitting workouts with the help of convenient powdered energy drinks, natural energy supplements, or pre-made energy drinks.

Determining which pre-workout supplement is best for you will depend on your personal fitness goals. A variety of key ingredients in many pre-workout products can help to improve your fitness performance by promoting higher energy levels and increasing muscle strength. When purchasing a pre-workout supplement, here are a few things to look for:

Caffeine: Encourages elevated energy levels and alertness.
Creatine: Supports energy production within the cells to boost power and endurance.
Beta-alanine: An amino acid used to boost strength, minimize fatigue, and support energy production.
BCAAs: Help reduce exercise-induced muscle fatigue and enhance workout recovery.
Citrulline: An amino acid associated with improved blood flow for bigger pumps and healthy vascular function.

How to take a pre-workout supplement

Pre-workout products come in a variety of forms including powders and pre-mixed sports drinks. Powders can be added to water or your favorite beverage and come in a variety of delicious flavors like watermelon, orange, fruit punch, strawberry, and raspberry.

Tip: Most performance-enhancing ingredients in pre-workout supplements require 30-60 minutes to kick in, so time your intake to get the maximum effect during your workout.

Healing your body after winning the fitness battle

High-intensity activities put your whole body under heavy stress. It’s important to consume quality post-workout nutrition to help kick-start your recovery process, especially after intense workouts. Post-workout supplements are often used to encourage healthy weight management, stimulate gains in muscle mass, and enable sustained performance day after day. Many types of post-workout supplements contain some of the same key ingredients featured in pre-workout supplements, such as beta alanine, creatine, and BCAAs. Additional ingredients in recovery products that can help you get the most out of your workout include:

Betaine anhydrous: Used to encourage the growth of lean muscle mass and promote a healthy metabolism.
Glutamine: Aids in protein utilization and helps fuel and repair muscles.
L-Carnitine L-Tartrate: Can help to reduce muscle soreness and tissue damage after exercise.
Leucine: An essential amino acid that helps fight muscle breakdown and encourages muscle growth.
Carbohydrates: Helps replenish glycogen levels.

Choosing the best recovery drink or supplement

The best recovery drink or supplement will largely depend on your lifestyle and preferences. Post-workout powders offer a convenient, on-the-go solution you can easily mix with water or your beverage of choice. Recovery supplements also come in a variety of other forms including tablets, capsules, liquids, and individual packets.
