چکیده [English]

Background and Aim: Creatine hydrochloride is a new form of creatine,  it has higher absorption and solubility and also a greater impact on performance due to the properties of hydrochloride. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of creatine hydrochloride supplementation along with resistance training on testosterone, cortisol, strength, muscle hypertrophy and body composition in young men. Materials and Methods: Twenty qualified young men participated in this research. They were divided into two groups (10 people) including resistance training with creatine hydrochloride (0.03 grams per kilogram of body weight per day, taken 30 minutes before training) and resistance training with placebo (with the same dose and time of use). The creatine hydrochloride consumption and resistance training (three sessions per week, with an intensity of 70-85% of one maximum repetition, three times with 6-12 repetitions) interventions were applied for eight weeks. Before and after the intervention, height, weight, body composition (muscle mass, fat percentage and muscle hypertrophy), muscle strength (in chest press and leg press) and serum levels of testosterone and cortisol were measured based on standard valid methods. For statistical analsysis, the results were extracted with the covariance test at a significance level of p≤0.05. Results: Creatine hydrochloride along with resistance training caused a more significant increase in the ratio of testosterone to cortisol, muscle strength of chest press and leg press; cross-sectional area of ​​arm and thigh muscles; and muscle mass; but it also showed a more significant decrease in the percentage of fat and cortisol of the participants, compared to resistance training with placebo. Conclusion: The results show the efficiency of creatine hydrochloride on some variables as: cortisol, the ratio of testosterone to cortisol, the muscle strength of chest press and leg press, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the arm and thigh muscles, and it seems that this type of creatine, considering its characteristics, does not require a loading period, can have beneficial effects on performance and hormonal profile.
