The effects of creatine and protein-carbohydrate supplements might be additive.
Australian researchers found that experienced weight-trained athletes who took a protein (whey) + carbohydrate + creatine monohydrate supplement increased strength (1-repetition maximum lifts) more than a protein-carbohydrate supplement. They took the supplement during a 10-week structured and supervised weight-training program. A supplement containing creatine, protein and carbohydrates improves strength in trained athletes.
