I Have Some Exciting News...

[@AuDHDRunner]

Mix it in a warm/hot drink. No clumps. Then add ice if needed. I do this with black coffee every day. No taste and no clumps.

[@irawhitlock1084]

I live in Missouri too! I can’t handle the heat and humidity. Resorting to walking and short runs for now.

[@ewapaka5278]

That's epic. Phily Bowden's world meets Molly Seidel's world. That's a plot twist that we were waiting for but we did not deserve. Absolutely in love with this news!

[@hippygeeza]

Roping the new coach into a day advert the first time he appears..genius Phily love it! 😂

[@jeffmorris9523]

So excited to see this new chapter for you. A partnership with a skilled coach who has a plan but also listens to his athletes sounds like just what you need Phily to take it to the next level.

[@KilroyWasThere]

Nice to a see an athlete-turned-coach that just doesn't mimic how they've been coached by yelling silly things or lording over the athlete. I think you made a good choice, Philly!

[@duck6100]

I also take collagen for my tendons because I climb. I suggest adding it to food if at all possible. Things like curries or chilli or anything with a broth. You make a slurry first and then add it to avoid the clumps. If it’s in food like that I guarantee you don’t even taste it.

[@skyenicolson4236]

Yes exactly, put it in savory dishes.. plus just like making gravy, add collagen powder to a small volume of liquid to mix (warm or hot works best), then add mixed slurry to main batch.

[@StephanieLuff]

I add it to my morning coffee. Don’t taste or smell a thing, and no clumps either.

[@alexmacleod9727]

Watch Dave Macleods video on collagen

[@duck6100]

@@alexmacleod9727 yeah I’m aware of how disputed it is that collagen helps with tendon injuries at all. The reason I take it is because I really struggle with getting an adequate amount of protein for the volume of training I do and collagen is an insanely easy way to add an easy extra 20g a day, and this really does make a difference to my recovery times. The fact that it may also help with the tendinitis I’m prone to, even if this ends up being untrue, is a bonus for me. I did find that once I started taking it I had fewer tendon issues and this might have been placebo or just me getting the protein I need but either way I’m happy about it.

[@duck6100]

[@buffdraven8824]

I struggled for 2 years with achilles issues. Things that helped: Training the soleus. I did calf raises but you lean forward ad much as possible against a wall. If you can get to a gym sitting calf raises are great as well. Changing my running style to not be on the forefoot and more of midfoot. Compression socks especially forwarming up the lower leg before training starts and after as recovery.

[@Jess-Rabbit]

Am dealing with achilles issues lately too and compressions have made a big difference! I have to wear them anyway for my shitty circulation 😂

[@Audifan8595]

I had achilles issues earlier this year that stopped me running for three months. Turned out the problem was indeed a strain in my soleus muscle, but not due to weakness...my problem was that my nervous system had been misfiring my muscles during my walking/running stride, causing the wrong muscles to be turning on and off at the wrong times. This pulled my pelvis into a very weird compensatory position and caused me to land supinated on my right foot, which strained the hell out of my right soleus. I found a physical therapist specializing in "postural restoration therapy" and he was able to diagnose and fix my gait very quickly! Now that I'm moving properly, I'm no longer putting strain on my soleus, and my achilles is perfect ❤

[@macsmachine]

Brought back lots of good memories seeing the Sinclair sign. I spent many many nights at the Little America next door and would run the trails behind the hotel whenever I could. Looking forward to seeing more training in Flag.

The change in Phily's expression when he started to talk of her biggest weakness was just like my cat when he sees me with his carry case!

[@fantaflesdopke]

We use collagen from MyProtein, vanilla flavor 🙂 A big scoop into a fresh smoothy, or even as replacement for sugar in your coffee, if you like it sweet 😉

[@TaylorDorsett]

Try dissolving the collagen in a small amount of hot water then adding the oj. Lots of things dont mix well in cold liquid!

[@juliemckie72]

Wow exciting stuff Phily 🎉

[@lisajepson1228]

I’m so happy for you Phily! Enjoying a new coach and a training camp with Daniel alongside for the whole time. You both have worked so hard for this and I hope you are patting yourself on the back! Big hugs!

Mix collagen with very small amount of hot water and mix the bits out, then add it to cold drink. Works for me.

Since you're in the USA, you should be able to find Athletic Brewing wherever to get your N/A beer fix. If you can find it, I highly recommend NoMo from Crux Brewing in Oregon. It's the best N/A beer I've been able to find.

Like the coach. It's about you and your goals but if it's antithetical to loving the grind it's not you. consistent trainer "he's got you" overly "rigid' around race okay. But what I think makes you great is you get energy from those around you "Daniel" and all the great friends.

[@saskhiker3935]

I mix my collegen with flavoured protein powder in the morning as a smoothy.

[@mg_for_fitness]

You should try RNWY for collagen. It has electrolytes and doesn't get clumpy like traditional collagen--I feel like it masks the weird taste the best of anything I've tried. Congrats on the new coach!

[@rmjames83]

Don’t know if you can get it in the US or UK but I use BsC collagen repair & recover (it’s the only supp apart from electrolytes that I use). It’s vanilla flavoured, goes in my morning coffee & I just get vanilla, no obnoxious collagen taste😉 it is quite sweet tho. Definitely no need for sugar if ur usually a sugar in the am bevy kinda person. Funny story-last big training block in an absolute state of fatigue & brain not working properly I put the collagen in my electrolytes by mistake instead of the coffee…surprisingly it was ok😂 I wasn’t mad at the vanilla passion fruit taste sensation accidentally made…but then again, I wasn’t about to chuck it out and start again🤣🤣🤣

[@stefaniedhaen5324]

You should use it from 6D. It is soooo much better. I do it for 3 years now. Just put it in a bit of lemon, with honey and warm, not hot, water.

[@PeterGleaves-xt3zc]

Love the 'Love the Grind' outtakes at the end - hilarious! Is it me or is there, like, an excessive, unnecessary use of the the word 'like' like?

[@Rinsisu]

i mix my collagen into a smoothie with berrys and milk i find it helps mask the flavor and smell

[@Shipwreckruns]

Collagen is easier to take in hot liquids for me, coffee especially

[@rainerblessing923]

I use Seargarden collagen, which is from fish. If you stick you nose into the jar you can smell the fish, but I never noticed it when I used it in a mix.

[@oliviaosullivan5443]

You must try Vital Protein’s Matcha + Collagen! I shake up a scoop of vanilla whey with oat milk and add that as a creamer to the collagen matcha and it’s amazing.

Drinking a smelly liquid with **shivers** bits??? You do love the grind more than I ever thought possible. I’d sell my achilles to Satan before drinking a liquid with bits.

You can try mixing the collagen in a shaker bottle to get rid of the clumps!!

[@nduron]

Personally I just mix the collagen in a smoothie and I don’t even taste it hope that helps cuz that sounds dreadful

[@thomastypo]

you gotta get a higher quality collagen supplement lol get one that is pre-flavored. the name brand ones tend to mix better and get less clumpy. also use a shaker cup.

Mix the collagen into coffee or tea. Dissolves Nicely in hot liquid and there is no taste.

@@SparkesIsRunning Supplementary nerdy bit, the name chesterfield for a couch or sofa got brought into the Canadian lexicon at some point and stuck around for the biggest piece of furniture in the living room/family room/etc. It's slowly disappearing along with some other regionalisms.

[@Audifan8595]

Phily, hopefully you see this comment-- if your achilles is angry after your body is already so used to the sheer volume and intensity of running you do.... it's probably not tendon weakness. Your body should be well adjusted to the impact and strain you're putting on it by now. What I think of, because I went through this with my achilles, is a potential issue with your posture. Back in February I very suddenly experienced intense stiffness and strain in my right achilles. I tried taking a few days off but it didn't help, and after poking around I found tenderness on my shin, on what I would later identify as my soleus muscle. I did a lot of digging on youtube and found something called postural restoration/PRI, which revolves around the relationship between the jaw, the pelvis, and the nervous system. In my case, it turned out that my brain was firing my leg muscles in an incorrect pattern, and it caused my right leg muscles to be stuck "on," with my left muscles being underactive. My nervous system compensated by twisting my pelvis so that the right side was internally rotated and the left side was externally rotated, all the time, in order to keep my body moving in a straight line. So every step I walked or ran was in this bad pattern that strained that soleus muscle. Over time, it just couldn't handle it and it aggravated my achilles. I found a physical therapist that specializes in postural restoration therapy, and he was able to diagnose all of this for me as well as give me exercises to retrain my brain to turn the muscles on and off properly. It worked like an absolute miracle and now I am running again, completely pain and injury free. I would highly recommend seeking out a PT who specializes in postural restoration and getting an evaluation, even if only to rule it out as a possible problem. There is a nonzero chance that you've got some posture stuff going on that may be, even VERY subtly, causing strain on the wrong muscles. It may not be the issue I personally had, but there are lots of patterns of postural issues that can lead to achilles pain, which can be addressed with this therapy. It definitely doesn't hurt to check!

Collagen peptides do absolutely nothing different than just consuming any protein source. All peptides (proteins) are degraded upon digestion and your body has no way of ‘remembering’ that the amino acids came from collagen or any other protein. Pure pseudoscience. Love the vids! (Scientist who can’t let pseudoscience go without comment 🙄)

[@davidsheartisrunning]

Speaking as someone who specialised in tendon pathology for years and have treated some of the world's best humans and horses with tendon problems taking this collagen with the aim it will aid a tendon problem is nonsence. It will not assist your AT one bit. I could write an essay on why not and what you should do, but I will not! If you're paying for it don't waste your money !
