I was told by my doctor that you should use 10mg of Glucosamine for every pound of body weight. The common dosage of 1500mg is for a 150 lb person.
Ice bath’s after hard efforts work best for me.
Or bags of frozen peas ace wrapped on for 15-20 min.
So I said I would report back on this cocktail. I’m not in the suppliment business. All the earlier disclaimers are still valid.
Its been a few weeks. I am still on a regular training increase program of about 10% per week. My current week is 35 miles of run, 4 miles swim, 80 miles bike with 4 days of core. I am 50 yrs old and do my workouts split with the bigger workout at 9am and a lighter workout at 3:30pm. I stretch before and after every workout, mostly leg stretching. (roll the It bands a few times a week).
I don’t know what ingredient is helping or if it is all of them. Might be in my head I don’t know but I don’t have any pain in any joint. My muscles still get stressed and a little sore the day after my long runs and long swims but no joint pain. I’m not feeling any scratching sensation under the knee-caps on the bike. IT bands are good.
So I will keep taking it for a while longer; probably finish out the month. Maybe if I stop taking it I can really find out if there is a benefit.
Hope this helps.
