Most of us don't get enough glycine in our diet, which is why I supplement with about 3 grams per day. I get 2 grams from the low molecular weight collagen I take every day and another gram from NOW brand glycine capsules.
As we age, low levels of glycine can lead to systemic inflammation, so I also add 2 x 600mg NAC capsules per day, which together form glutathione, the "mother of all antioxidants".
Glycine is known to improve strength, strengthen connective tissues, and reduce inflammation. Check out the article below for more good info on glycine. You may want to think about adding it to your stack.

Re: Glycine, the Anti-Aging Amino Acid
What's wrong with cutting out the middle man so to speak and just taking RBS's LIPO Glutathione?

Re: Glycine, the Anti-Aging Amino Acid
Maybe it's also good to "also" have the body generate it at a cellular level... like taking NMN to boost NAD+ vs taking NAD+.
If I want to boost glutiathone in my kidneys or liver, or wherever, I may be more likely to get it there by triggering a process that boosts it in my cells, rather than consuming the end product.
So then I would take Glutiathone and consider taking Glycine as well.
