Regarding collagen, what most don't realize is that the stuff you see on the shelf mostly is beef collagen which is primarily types I and IX which is what your skin and hair are mostly composed of. Cartilage, ligaments and tendons are mostly type II collagen and for that you want to be consuming chicken collagen. Type II is found in chicken bones and egg shells, and before someone says "just drink broth bro" while broth is good for you if the collagen is not hydrolyzed most of it will not be properly absorbed. I added in chicken collagen to my diet and my tendonitis that had been bothering me for months suddenly started fading after a few weeks, it was dramatic.

Also the collagen cycle is slow, it usually takes several weeks to notice changes hence why many go through a 30 day supply and then cry that it was a scam online.

It's been well studied that those who took 10g of collagen with 50mcg of vitamin C post workout saw joints recover at least twice as fast. I prefer to put it in my pre-workout so that all the movement helps circulate it into my joints as i get my muscles pumped up as the lymphatic system is heavily involved in transporting the peptides and that is driven by body movement as it has no pump like the heart to drive it.
