What is ck?
CK stands for creatine kinase. It is used to convert ADP into energy in the form of ATP. Specifically, it transfers a phosphate group to adenosine diphosphate to make it into adenosine triphosphate (energy currency of the cell). CK is usually high in individuals who are weight training. Also, CK levels can be high following myocardial infarction.

Why does creatinine kinase levels rise with muscle weakness?
Your creatine kinase (CK) levels are related to muscle breakdown. After any exercise, particularly a strenuous workout, your CK levels will be much higher due to the strain placed on the body and consequent muscle breakdown. CK levels can rise uncontrollably, usually indicating a type of muscle dystrophy is occurring. If the levels do not return to normal, it signifies that muscle breakdown has not ceased. This in turn reduces the muscle's ability to function, creating a weakness.

What is a ck test and what does it measure?
How is it used? Blood levels of CK rise when muscle or heart cells are injured. Your doctor may test for CK if you have chest pain or other signs and symptoms of a heart attack. In the first 4 to 6 hours after a heart attack, the concentration of CK in blood begins to rise. It reaches its highest level in 18 to 24 hours and returns to normal within 2 to 3 days. The amount of CK in blood also rises when skeletal muscles are damaged. When is it ordered? In patients who may have had a heart attack, the CK test will usually be ordered when they arrive at the emergency room and again at intervals of 4-6 hours for a total of three tests. If you have muscle pain or weakness, your doctor may order CK to see if other muscles have been damaged. What does the test result mean? A high CK, or one that goes up from the first to the second or later samples, generally indicates that there has been some damage to the heart or other muscles. It can also indicate that your muscles have experienced heavy use. If your doctor suspects a heart attack and your CK is high, she will usually order a more specific test (troponin ) to see if your heart is damaged.
