Dr. Alfredo Franco-Obregón
Author of Creatine: A Practical Guide
Dr. Franco-Obregón is a well-respected research scientist with more than 20 years experience. He has conducted his scientific research at Johns Hopkins University Medical School, the Mayo Clinic, Harvard Medical School and the Swiss Institute of Technology in Zurich, Switzerland.
His primary area of interest? The "understanding the biophysics of muscle cell growth and survival."
That's a mouthful and probably a bit beyond where the average bodybuilder/athlete can or even wants to go. But to understand muscle at the cellular level is to possess the secrets of its growth.
It doesn't take a genius to understand the potential impact such knowledge can have for those of us seeking muscle gain. And Dr. Franco-Obregón proves himself an extremely capable teacher.
In his ebook, Creatine: A Practical Guide, he successfully breaks down the complicated muscle building process, puts it into layman's terms and leaves the interested reader with a new appreciation of EXACTLY what needs to happen if they plan on increasing muscle mass.
The focus of the ebook is on creatine and how to best use it to help you build muscle. The sad truth is that most people supplementing with creatine aren't even coming close to maximizing the capabilities of this truly amazing supplement. This should be required reading for all creatine users.
