Muscle & Recovery

What people reach for after training or a long day on their feet - magnesium in its better-absorbed forms, protein and collagen powders, and the sprays and bath flakes that go on rather than in. Magnesium contributes to normal muscle function and to a reduction of tiredness and fatigue.

Viridian, Mag365, Lamberts and Biocare cover most of it, with Hunter and Gather on the protein side. See magnesium for the full range and muscle for the wider category.

Mag365 built their name on a magnesium powder that dissolves into a drink, which suits anyone who would rather not swallow another capsule after a session. Viridian is the clearest example of how we buy: no fillers, no binders, no artificial additives.

Lamberts supply the practitioner market and hold their specifications tightly - they have long been a sports-nutrition staple for that reason. Biocare formulate in the UK with practitioners, and Hunter and Gather do the grass-fed collagen and protein end.

This is where the money goes. Bisglycinate and citrate are absorbed more readily than the cheap oxide in supermarket own-brands and sit better with digestion - oxide is the one most likely to send you to the loo rather than to your muscles.

Malate and taurate turn up in formulas aimed at daytime use. If you are buying on price alone you will almost certainly end up with oxide, which is why a Viridian or Biocare capsule costs what it does.

Powders dissolve into water and are the easiest way to take a larger dose. Sprays go straight onto the skin over the area you want - a tingle on first use is common and usually settles.

Bath flakes are the pleasantest version: a decent handful, twenty minutes. Popular with anyone on their feet all day rather than in a gym, and there is no dose to measure.

FAQ

When should I take magnesium around training?

Most people take it daily rather than timing it to a session, and many prefer the evening. Consistency matters more than timing.

Is collagen or protein better after exercise?

They do different jobs - protein supplies the amino acids for muscle, collagen is aimed at connective tissue. Plenty of people use both. Neither is suitable for vegetarians unless it is specifically a plant protein.

Why does magnesium spray tingle?

It is a common reaction to the concentration on the skin, especially the first few times. Applying to damp skin or after a shower reduces it, and it usually settles with use.

Can I take too much magnesium?

Very high oral doses have a laxative effect, which is your signal to cut back. Stick to the pack and count what is already in a multivitamin.
