Anti inflamatories.

[Gezza]

Good or bad idea to gym while using them?

 

[FrancTheTank]

I don't think its a problem...

 

[Obelix]

youre gonna hurt yourself......

 

[zoopy3]

why do you need them in the first place?

 

[rurapente]

yeah they usually got sorting out inflamation and/or pain - so you might be compounding a problem by gym'ing and masking it with the pills.

I get pains in my arms when I gym. I do rock climbing too so I put extreme presure on my arms. It causes my arms to get inflamed so just wondering if taking those pills will cause my arms to weaken when gyming them?

Rather use the gel. You know the rub a dub dub stuff. I think its Voltaren gel or something, but if you are a real, salt of the earth sadist, I would recommend liberal quantities of Deep Heat spray.

 

[Gezza]

So to my original question. it is a bad idea to take anti inflamatories while gyming.

 

[zoopy3]

maybe you doing something wrong and causing unnecessary strain on those muscles... i think you should get professional advice on what to use

agreed, whilst they are not going to kill u, ur masking a problem. Unless its a sports event u cant miss, go check out why ur getting the issue.

Definately do not take anti inflammatories whilst going to gym. Every time ive been prescribed anti-inflams (cataflam) ive been told to stop going to gym.

You can take them while gyming it Shouldn't hurt you but the problem is you should not be gyming when you have the inflamation on the muscle all you going to do is break down the muscle more

You can take them while gyming it wont hurt you but the problem is you should not be gyming when you have the inflamation on the muscle all you going to do is break down the muscle more

I used to rock climb too a while back, what helps with aching arms are bananas, or anything loaded with Potassium, it helps with the drainage of lactic acid. Eat a banana before going to gym.

I think it depends what type of anti inflammatory meds you'll be taking...
Non steroidal anti inflam drugs can increase the strain on one's heart and if you're going to be exerting yourself while on these meds, I doubt your heart will be very happy.

I use them quite a lot while gyming once the tennis/golfers elbow sets in... Just know your limits and remember that you are hurt and you should be fine...
