Supports Strength During Cutting or Fasting

Unlike common creatine formulas, Creatine HMB also helps maintain lean muscle during: • calorie deficits • weight cuts • recomposition phases • athletic conditioning programs

Improved Muscle Recovery

HMB helps reduce muscle breakdown after intense exercise, allowing smoother recovery and more productive training.

Clinically Studied Dosages

You get 5g Micronized Creatine and 2g HMB — the exact amounts shown in research to improve strength, power, and recovery.

Enhances Exercise Performance

This formula helps you perform at a higher output for longer, with better power repeatability.

FAQs

My pre-workout or intra-workout already contains creatine. Can I still take Creatine HMB?
My pre-workout or intra-workout already contains creatine. Can I still take Creatine HMB?

Check the creatine dose in your other product. If it already provides 5g creatine, adding a full scoop of Creatine HMB would give you 10g total daily creatine. While not dangerous, doses above 5g have not been shown to provide additional benefit once muscles are saturated. You could take a half scoop for the HMB and Vitamin D benefits, or use Creatine HMB on its own and skip the creatine in your other supplement.

Each scoop delivers 5g micronized creatine monohydrate, 2g HMB (beta-Hydroxy beta-Methylbutyrate), 500 IU Vitamin D3, 200mg Calcium, and 5mg BioPerine for enhanced absorption. Plain creatine provides only creatine monohydrate. This formula adds anti-catabolic muscle protection from HMB, bone and muscle support from Vitamin D, and improved nutrient uptake from BioPerine in a single scoop.

Anyone looking to improve strength, power, lean mass, or maintain muscle during intense training, cutting, or calorie deficits.

What is HMB and what does it actually do?
What is HMB and what does it actually do?

HMB (beta-Hydroxy beta-Methylbutyrate) is a metabolite of the amino acid leucine. Your body produces small amounts naturally, but not enough to impact muscle preservation at a meaningful level. Supplemental HMB helps reduce muscle protein breakdown during intense training or calorie deficits. It works through a different pathway than creatine, which is why combining them provides both strength gains and muscle protection together.

Does creatine cause water retention and will this make me look bloated?
Does creatine cause water retention and will this make me look bloated?

Creatine does increase water in your body, but the water goes into your muscle cells (intracellular), not under your skin (subcutaneous). This is actually the mechanism behind creatine's cell volumization benefit and contributes to muscle fullness. It does not create a soft or puffy appearance. If you experience stomach bloating, that is usually a mixing or hydration issue. Drink at least 8 to 12oz of water per serving.

Can I take Creatine HMB with other Gaspari products?
Can I take Creatine HMB with other Gaspari products?

Each formula complements the other to support total athletic performance.
