4. Récupération et dommages musculaires

Études récentes

• Dean M. Cordingley et al. (2022) — Anti-inflammatory and anti-catabolic effects of creatine supplementation: brief review.

Certaines études rapportent des améliorations de la récupération de la force musculaire après des exercices dommageables, avec des chiffres proches ou supérieurs à 20% :

• Une étude randomisée a montré que le groupe supplémenté en créatine avait une récupération isométrique 21% plus élevée que le groupe placebo après des exercices excentriques, ce qui correspond à une récupération de la force musculaire significativement plus rapide.
• D’autres études et méta-analyses confirment une accélération de la récupération (force, amplitude de mouvement, réduction des marqueurs de dommages musculaires), mais la magnitude exacte varie selon les protocoles et les indicateurs mesurés.
