Re: strength..the old fashioned way!!

First and foremost his form should be evaluated. I've seen some horrible squatting on youtube clips. If it was me, I'd be hitting antioxidants hard. Vitamin C, l-carnosine esp. if he doesn't eat meat, coenzyme q10 at least 500mg a day, l-glutamine at least 2-3000mg per day, MSM, glucosamine,chondroitin 1000mg of each at least per day, castor oil packs for the knee...Those are some things I can think of. I hit the MSM and antioxidants hard for prevention of injuries. Also, I know my limits. Sometimes in competition the pressure is on to lift more than one's body can bear/capable of. Tweet
