Do I have to be injured to see and feel the benefits of collagen?

No, you absolutely do not. The best thing about high quality collagen supplements like ours is that they can (and should) be taken daily to support the normal maintenance, repair, function of our connective tissues, like muscle, bone, ligaments, and tendons. 

Think of them like very specific tools, to do very specific jobs, and can be used proactively to improve day to day recovery and reduce the risk of injury OR they can be used reactively when looking to improve the speed and quality of injury recovery.

Are your collagen products batch tested and safe to use?

Yes, they absolutely are! To ensure your safety, every batch of U Perform's signature collagen products is pre-market tested for banned substances under the Informed Sport program. Products undergo rigorous testing using ISO 17025 accredited methods to provide the highest level of assurance for athletes.

The Informed Sport program provides assurance that products have been tested for a wide range of substances prohibited in sport. U Perform’s co-founders represented Great Britain at elite levels, Greg at two Olympics, Greg & James at World & European Championships... so they both understand and value the importance of products that have been banned substance tested.

When is the best time to take collagen? 

The best thing about high-quality collagen supplements like ours is that they can be taken at any time to suit your lifestyle or training plan. Like with all sources of protein however, if you are taking multiple servings, we recommend doing so by spreading them out across the day, at specific meal times, in between meal times or target it at specific windows of opportunity, such as after exercise. 

So long as you are getting the collagen in and giving your body the best opportunity to absorb it and utilise it effectively then you are on the right track!

Like HUUB, the team at U Perform and I have a passion for improving an athlete’s performance. And, by adopting the latest scientific innovations in the field of sports nutrition and physiology we are able to deliver functional and effective products for athletes of all abilities; from the weekend warrior, to seasoned Age Groupers, all the way up to elite professionals. 

We use a bespoke selection of independently proven Bioactive Collagen Peptides® from a bovine source. Almost all of the current published research points towards bovine collagen being the most optimal source compared to other sources like marine or plant-based options and that's exactly why we use them across our range. 

Athletes know that when it comes to performance, every advantage counts. Whether that's choosing the fastest wetsuit, the latest carbon plated running shoes or nutrition that delivers the highest quality ingredients at the best value for money. Our products are used by athletes of all abilities and you could be the next!

Here at U Perform we are very proud to support some of the world's best multisport athletes and coaches, including Non Stanford on her recovery from knee surgery all the way to her monumental 2022 European Championship title in Munich.
