You train hard. You rip, tear, strain, lift, recover… repeat.
That’s the grind. But what if you could bounce back faster, reduce inflammation, and support long-term joint and tissue health — without adding another scoop of whey?
Enter:
Marine Collagen – Clean, fast-absorbing protein for joints, tendons, and skin
NAC (N-Acetyl Cysteine) – A precursor to glutathione, your body’s master antioxidant
Glycine – An amino acid that aids in collagen production and sleep
Together, this trio is a next-level recovery protocol for athletes who beat their bodies up daily and want to keep doing it for years to come.
Collagen talk is everywhere now — but not all collagen is created equal.
Marine collagen (sourced from wild fish skin) is:
More bioavailable than bovine collagen (aka your body absorbs it better)
Lean, clean, and less inflammatory
Rich in Type I collagen, perfect for skin, joints, tendons, and ligaments
Now stack it with NAC + Glycine and you've got a formula that:
Repairs soft tissue faster
Neutralizes oxidative stress from hard workouts
Supports lung function and immune health (yep — NAC does that too)
Improves sleep, which = better recovery
Think of it as upgrading your body's repair crew from a weekend handyman to a full-blown tactical team.
| Supplement | Function | Best Time to Take |
|---|---|---|
| Marine Collagen | Joint & skin repair, tendon health | Morning or post-WOD |
| NAC | Antioxidant & lung support | Morning or pre-workout |
| Glycine | Collagen booster & deep sleep aid | Evening or bedtime |
A 2018 study in Frontiers in Pharmacology found that NAC reduces exercise-induced oxidative stress and protects muscle tissue during endurance and strength training.
Glycine has been shown in multiple studies to stimulate growth hormone, improve sleep quality, and enhance collagen synthesis.
A 2022 review in Marine Drugs highlighted marine collagen’s superior bioavailability and anti-aging benefits, especially for connective tissue support.

Bottom Line 💥
If you want to train harder, recover faster, and protect your body from the grind of CrossFit or functional fitness — marine collagen, NAC, and glycine are your low-key power trio.
This isn’t hype. It’s about building resilience from the inside out. 🧬
