My Elbow and Knee Problems were better within one tub My elbows and knees have always ached. As I increased my training to 6 days a week I started to struggle with recovery, and these occasional aches became pretty much constant. I started picking up small injuries and niggles in both my elbows and knees, affecting my enjoyment and progress. Supplements didn’t help I tried a few joint supplement brands which didn’t work for me. I’d heard good things about … Read more

GLC2000 is a total godsend for me My joints feel older than their years I’ve worked outdoors my entire life; trick riding, weight training, swimming, rock climbing, all take their toll. Obviously you can go for massages, acupuncture and other therapies but if the correct nutrients aren’t there then you’re basically swimming upstream. I don’t need days between sessions anymore Being introduced to GLC2000 has allowed my body to naturally repair on its own a lot quicker. After a long … Read more

Stubborn Wrist Injury. Sorted I struggled with a stubborn wrist injury for almost 5 months. I couldn’t lift overhead and couldn’t put my wrist into extension at all, which made day to day tasks tricky. Nothing seemed to help I did everything I could to fix my wrist, I rested it, did mobility and rehab exercises and even changed the way I lifted. Nothing made any real difference. I love training and competing, and when I can’t do it I … Read more

Helping my joints survive masters weightlifting High Volume Squats Were Making My Knees Sore I was looking for a supplement to help my joints survive the vast volume of squats I am programmed on a weekly basis! I started taking GLC2000 on the recommendation of my weightlifting coach – who uses the product himself.

Now I train how I want, not how my body can cope My body was struggling I found myself in a situation where my body couldn’t cope with the training volume I needed to progress and compete in Weightlifting. Old injuries would flare up, ache and swell after almost every session, so I was taking more and more days off to recover. While the pain was tolerable, the frustration at having to limit training days was making me reconsider how … Read more

Recovering from ACL surgery in half the time After an ACL reconstruction on my left knee I was still getting some pretty severe pain. At the same time I was also struggling with pain in my ‘good’ knee. It was so frustrating that I was making no progress with my post surgery rehab. A friend on mine who had similar issues put me on to GLC2000. Now I’m not one to just take peoples word, nor did I think it … Read more

No more wrist brace Two Years of Problems I’d been struggling with wrist and shoulder problems after I broke my wrist mountain biking. The break healed, but the movement and mobility of my wrist was limited and painful. This started to cause shoulder pain where I was compensating for the pain and lack of flexibility. I spent 2 years having physio but it didn’t improve, if anything it was getting worse. If I wanted to mountain bike I had to … Read more

Dealing with ‘clicky,’ achy knees My Clicky Achy Knees were getting worse I always suffered with ‘clicky’ knees, as I started to train and compete in Crossfit and Weightlifting I found that my knees also began to ache a lot. I’d struggle to recover between sessions and at the same time my knees were getting louder and crunchier – especially during squats. It really started to affect my enjoyment of training, my progress and began to knock my confidence when … Read more

Damien St Ledger – KBT Education Senior Educator

Dealing with chronic knee issues I’ve always struggled with my knees, I’d tried every supplement and treatment out there. When I first heard of GLC2000 I just thought it was an overpriced glucosamine that was well advertised and marketed. Eventually my training got to the stage where I couldn’t lift much more than 50% – and it was holding me back. So I ‘bit the bullet’ and bought my first tub of GLC2000. “if you think this stuff is ‘just … Read more

‘Its true what they say, you get what you pay for’ A year or so ago I had some ongoing discomfort in my knee and took some cheap glucosamine tablets that I got from a supermarket. They had literally no effect. This pretty much made my mind up that joint supplements were pointless. Recently I started to struggle with lateral epicondylitis (tennis elbow) caused mainly by heavy cleans, overhead work and high rep pull ups. I was forced to cut … Read more

Bobbie Ross – Weightlifting Wrist Injury

by

I’ve had weak wrists for as long as I can remember. Meaning that I would wear wrist supports almost every session, as I knew they were going to hurt. I also struggled with sore hips after heavy squatting sessions, as an Olympic Weightlifter I am usually squatting four or more times a week. My coach had heard some good things about GLC2000, so recommended that I give it a try. After around 11 weeks of consistent use I found that … Read more

Crossfit Regional Athletes Overcoming Long Term Wrist Injuries

The wrist is one of the most frustrating places Crossfit athletes can get injured. Almost all upper body movements involve the wrist, as do the majority of compound movements including the olympic lifts, gymnastics moves and other barbell work.

A wrist injury often means that an athlete’s progress in the gym … Read more

18.4 Mobility and Activation Guide

by

Heavy Deadlift Edition There is no shying away from the fact that 18.4 is a lot of deadlifts. These will tax you midline and then going upside down for HSPU and handstand walks is going to cause you to move from lower back flexion to extension in a fatigued state. If you don’t warmup effectively there is a good chance your lower back will be sore or worse after this workout. We’ve put together a 6 minute video with 6 … Read more

18.3 Mobility Guide

Focussing on improving overhead positioning and kipping efficiency 18.3 is a lot of double unders followed by some quite technical movements. Overhead squats, dumbbell snatches and muscle ups are tricky enough when you’ve not just done 100’s of double unders. Mobilising your upper back and shoulders before this workout will help you to stabilise the weight over head, and releasing your lats will help you kip effectively for the muscle ups. 2 rounds for time of: 100 double-unders 20 overhead … Read more
