When I came across U Perform my first thought was that it’s great to come across a product that is truly science led. As an ex-athlete who is now back in the personal training and performance world, I always want to make sure I maintain a healthy lifestyle that supports my training and my life as a busy working mum. 

I absolutely love the Active Collagen gels. They are perfect to take away with you, to have on the go. And just the right amount of Bioactive Collagen Peptides® that your body needs a day to stay healthy and active.

My body has been put through a lot during my career as a skeleton athlete and now needs all the help it can get to keep me feeling great post workouts! Collagen is great for your muscles, tendons and ligaments supporting their repair and strength building.It feels great to have a product that you trust and that I can recommend to all my PT clients, friends, and family.

For most of my sporting career I struggled with a lot of knee and back pain, due to overuse and repeated injuries. It was a pain that just became part of my daily life.

I started taking U Perform Active Collagen 2 years ago and it wasn’t until a few weeks in that I realised that my knees no longer felt cranky and achy each day. I could wake up and do my workouts pretty much pain free!

At first, I couldn’t quite believe it! After only taking 1 collagen gel a day. So, I purposely stopped taking them again, after a few weeks the aches came back. I had my evidence, and my verdict was in, collagen really does work! If only I had discovered this whilst I was competing, I may not have had to retire so early!
