Creatinine really does not affect the oxygen carrying capacity of your blood stream. That is directly influenced by the number of red blood cell you have, and how efficient your lungs are. Elite athelete often go for several weeks of training at high altitudes. This encourages their bodies to produce more red blood cells to compensate for the thinner atmosphere. At ground level, some use special low pressure chambers to get the same effect. Eating well and making sure you get enough protein and iron in your diet will encourage your body to produce more red blood cells in response to exercise.
Creatine helps supplies energy to muscle cells, but your body produces sufficient quantities of this on your own, and does not require supplementation. There is scientific evidence that taking creatine supplements can marginally increase athletic performance in high-intensity anaerobic repetitive cycling sprints, but studies in swimmers and runners have been less than promising, possibly due to the weight gain. Ingesting creatine can increase the level of phosphocreatine in the muscles up to 20%. It must be noted creatine has no significant effect on aerobic exercise (Engelhardt et al, 1998).
