5 reasons you're still sore between sessions (and the fix that isn't more stretching)

More runners and gym-goers are backing up harder with one thing they stir into their water. Here's why.

5 reasons you're still sore between sessions (and the fix that isn't more stretching)

If you train hard and still feel sore, stiff or slow to bounce back, you're not imagining it. Recovery isn't only about rest days and stretching. Here's what's really going on, and the simple daily habit that fits into training instead of adding to it.

Collagen isn't just for skin, it's what your joints are built on

Collagen is the main structural protein in your tendons, ligaments and cartilage. It's a big part of how your body handles the load of training, and your natural levels start dropping from your mid-20s.

2

Recovery is built between sessions, not just in them

The work happens after you train. If your body isn't getting what it needs on the days in between, the soreness and stiffness hang around longer than they should.

3

Most recovery routines are too complicated to keep

Cold plunges, five different tubs, a cupboard of pills. The more moving parts, the faster people drop it. Consistency beats complexity every time.

The simple daily fix

UNFLTRD is marine collagen with magnesium, vitamin C and zinc in one daily sachet. Magnesium supports normal muscle function, and vitamin C supports normal collagen formation. Stir it into your water or coffee and you're done.

4

It fits into training, not around it

No shaker, no chalky mess, no extra step. One sachet into your water or morning coffee, so it slots into a routine you already have.

5

The doses are on the pack, nothing hidden

6000mg marine collagen, 200mg magnesium, 80mg vitamin C and 10mg zinc. Third-party batch tested, made in Australia.

I run four or five times a week and it's the easiest thing I've added. One sachet in my water and I feel like I back up better between runs.
