This study will aim to determine whether ingesting creatine nitrate (CrN) at higher doses will differentially affect hemodynamic variables compared to a placebo.
This study will examine the short-term (7 day) characteristics of ingesting creatine nitrate (CrN) compared to placebo on Chem-15 blood safety, heart rate, blood pressure, heart rate and blood pressure reactivity and self-reported side effects.
