Resistance training and aerobic exercise both stimulate collagen type I synthesis [R] but data regarding collagen synthesis from pre-workout supplementation + training is limited. Moreover, the dose required for a greater response than not supplementing is unknown.

This study [R] from 2024 analyzed collagen serum levels post-workout from supplementing 0g, 15g, and 30g of collagen pre-workout and found that the dose needed to achieve whole-body collagen synthesis is 30g. Taking 15g was no different than taking 0g. Collagen is characterized by its high content of glycine, proline and hydroxyproline.

1g collagen / 10kg bodyweight is the bare minimum for aesthetics, an accurate calculation would be 153-200mg collagen / kg bodyweight; thus 30g could potentially be reserved for injuries or budget-less expenditures seeking a maximalist approach.
