Beyond Vitamin/Mineral needs (which is always good to focus on) you may want to check on the actual state of your muscle themselves particularly in the lower back/IT/calf area.

NROL of lifting programs are really good at training the legs BUT if you don't focus on proper recovery, even foam rolling or trigger point work, it can lead to overly tight muscles that can then lead to dominance issues. In short nip it before there is a problem.

Best way to do that?

Make sure that you are focusing just as much on more Dynamic Warm ups and Static cool downs and you are in the actual lifting program. For extra bonus through in some Foam Roller work.

It will give you better gains, better mobility, and less pain. And if going for fat loss then it is even more calories burned and more of a efficient workout and that is never a bad thing.

I am not going to get into a big supp talk but I want to say make sure you buy for what you need and can uptake, not the highest dosages or fads.
