Creatine HCL is solubility more than creatine Monohydrate. It seem this form of creatine better for use in multi-ingredient and pre-workout supplement. Moreover this better solubility and absorption of creatine HCL maybe induce to improvement of body composition. Also Dosage and loading between both form of creatine is controversial. Some research had shown both form of creatine could increase the muscle mass and strength but only creatine HCL could improvement of body composition. This effect may be Due to the water retention after loading and use of creatine monohydrate because some research suggest that creatine HCL does not need to pre loading. Solubility, absorption, loading. Dosage and bioavailability are factors that can effect on satellite cell and myostatin but this theory need to more researches. I find some related research for you. I hope be useful for you
Best wishes
