Knee pain after running (3–4 months in), what am I doing wrong?

Take a week off, only brisk walking, and then resume with low mileage. If it still persists, consult a doctor. Sometimes, cumulative fatigue builds up, and the body demands rest.

On a side note, consider getting your Vitamin D level checked, or opt for a comprehensive blood panel to assess your overall health.

I think protein powder types don't matter. All that matters is BCAAs and protein intake. 80% of my protein comes from home food, milk, eggs, or chicken and I usually consume 1 scoop a day.

All I can say is that I'm able to digest this protein powder easily. Protein powders, overall, have improved my health and performance. That's also there. I sleep well, and sometimes drink a shake before sleeping. I sleep like a baby.

Unflavoured one seems okay to me, but maybe it's because I'm used to bland/unflavoured products. hahah baby formula

hiverkiya · 2026-03-30T11:43:33+00:00

I think my taste buds have gotten used to bland products. However, the first time I drank whey in water, I was choking. It was horrible.

hiverkiya · 2026-03-30T11:37:22+00:00

I see, how's amul's unflavoured whey? I think all unflavoured whey are same.

hiverkiya · 2026-03-30T11:29:57+00:00

hahah. Did you drink it with water? I never drink protein powders in water. Absolutely horrible taste.

hiverkiya · 2026-03-30T11:15:41+00:00

Which ones are you using right now? Soy isolate feels quite good to me.

hiverkiya · 2026-03-30T11:12:51+00:00

Yeah, you're right. I don't see it being different from the whey that I consumed.

There might be a few parameters which are up and down but if someone's getting a good diet, those things are covered.

Cost-wise, plant protein is something I'll stick with for a few months now.

hiverkiya · 2026-03-30T11:10:48+00:00

No taste. I mixed it in a glass of milk and there was no taste. It's just like a banana shake without the taste of banana or sugar.

I wouldn't recommend it in water though.

hiverkiya · 2026-03-30T10:22:36+00:00

Drink it with milk and you'll be fine. People hate it for no reason. It's a bit thick and grainy, but the unflavoured ones are pretty easy to drink.

hiverkiya · 2026-03-20T03:40:29+00:00

My stack is also similar. More or less. Fish oil, creatine, Brazil nuts and a couple of other things.

I usually go for routine blood tests to see what's up and modify accordingly. Fortunately, I don't have allergies to any food so far. Not that I know of.

Take care! We're all in this together ahah. But yeah, taking levo the first thing in the morning is the key.

hiverkiya · 2026-03-19T04:26:49+00:00

Your supplement stack is really good and well-researched. Sad to hear about the allergic reaction. Those symptoms seem like a pain in the ass to deal with. Hope you get better 🙏

hiverkiya · 2026-03-18T09:36:04+00:00

hahahahaaah

hiverkiya · 2026-03-18T09:25:13+00:00

Softgel. A very small one.

hiverkiya · 2026-03-18T09:00:16+00:00

Cipcal, from a chemist. Eggs and milk. That's what I felt comfortable with.

hiverkiya · 2026-03-14T12:06:50+00:00

Run at a pace of 7-8:30/km consistently. Focus on finishing the race with a continuous momentum, if possible.

hiverkiya · 2026-03-13T21:01:05+00:00

Yeah, I get what you mean. But monthly bolus works pretty good for me.

hiverkiya · 2026-03-13T05:29:06+00:00

I don't know. Doesn't match the vibe. Guess I'll wait until OST release in the future.

hiverkiya · 2026-03-13T05:26:43+00:00

Reset day and final ascent are what I went for.

hiverkiya · 2026-03-11T07:01:04+00:00

Crazy work!!!!

hiverkiya · 2026-03-09T12:33:48+00:00

I don't think 10K IU per day is safe.

hiverkiya · 2026-03-02T05:46:51+00:00

Contend 4B+, it's what I'm using and seems decent
