Creatine is a naturally occurring compound stored in muscle cells. It helps support ATP production, the primary energy source used during short-duration, high-intensity exercise. Creatine monohydrate is one of the most researched sports supplements.

Creatine may help increase muscular strength, improve high-intensity exercise performance, support lean muscle mass gains, and enhance training volume and recovery.

Creatine can benefit strength and power athletes, bodybuilders, team sport athletes, recreational gym-goers, and anyone looking to improve strength, performance, or training consistency.

Creatine monohydrate is considered safe for healthy individuals when taken as directed. Individuals with pre-existing medical conditions should consult a healthcare professional before use.

Creatine is typically taken daily at 3 to 5 g with water or a carbohydrate-containing beverage. A loading phase is optional. Consistent daily intake matters more than timing.

When purchased using our Buy 1, Get 1 50% Off offer on the 1-year supply (1.8 kg), Hydra Labs can be one of the cheapest creatine options per serve in NZ for many customers.

How the cost per serve is calculated:

• Buy 2 × 1.8 kg = 3.6 kg (3,600 g) total
• Standard serve size = 5 g
• 3,600 g ÷ 5 g = 720 servings
• Cost per serve = total bundle price ÷ 720 (bundle price is 1.5× the single price because the second unit is 50% off)

This provides a straightforward way to compare cost per serve against other standard tubs and bulk creatine options sold in New Zealand using the same 5 g serving size.

Cost per serve provides a more accurate comparison between creatine products. Smaller tubs can be cheaper upfront but often cost more per serving. Bulk formats typically reduce packaging, freight, and handling costs, improving value without compromising quality.
