recentlly ive been going heavier and my knees are hurting more. Im currentlly taking 1500mg of glucosamine and fish oils. When I dont take either, my knees hurt even more.
So I googled how much glucosamine do powerlifters take. Couldnt find and answer. but I did find that taking 5X the normal amount can lead to pancreatic problems (7500mg).
I talked to a few powerlifters and they take about 4500mg a day. Took about 2 weeks to ask around and get an average.
so I decided to increase my dosage to 3000mg/day with some chondrodin and MSM. SportPhamra was the cheapest at $14 for a 45 day supply. Osteo Sport to expensive.
Hope this helps everyone. Seach on the forums just recommend 1500mg. But im going more than 3 plates squat and more than 4 plates deadlift so 1500mg/day isn't enough.
