Ergogenic aids like Creatine (CRM) are common, but GAA, a creatine precursor, may be more beneficial. Involving 31 semi-professional male and female players, the study compared GAA, CRM, and placebo groups. Results showed significant physical performance improvements in females using GAA, particularly in Counter Movement Jump (CMJ) and Handgrip (HG). Male GAA users showed CMJ improvements, while CRM enhanced cognitive functions in males. The study suggests GAA’s potential in enhancing physical performance, especially in women, and highlights the need for further research on GAA and CRM effects, considering gender differences.
