FWDfuel Collagen Timing Protocol

Take your Codeage Multi Collagen Peptides + Probiotic (or equivalent multi-type collagen w/ Vitamin C) 45–60 minutes before your workout or rehab session. This timing aligns with research showing peak amino acid levels in the blood coincide with mechanical loading, leading to significantly greater collagen production & repair.

Protocol Guidelines:

Timing: Consume 10g 45–60 minutes prior to exercise or tissue-loading activity (the window supported by key studies on collagen production & repair).
Beverage: Mix into any hot or cold beverage — coffee, tea, water, or smoothie all work well.
Stacking: Safe and effective to mix directly with your pre-workout supplements.
Injury Recovery: Increase to 20g daily when rehabbing joint or tendon injuries. Take the full 20g serving 45–60 minutes before your workout or rehab session.
Consistency: Use daily on training/rehab days for best results. On non-training days, take with any morning movement or alongside a Vitamin C source. Pair with adequate overall protein intake and progressive loading.

This approach helps support faster recovery, joint resilience, injury prevention, and healthier connective tissue over time.
