Emergency Recovery Needed!

Simple Ice Baths help my CNS feel recovered. Sit in tub run your cold water up to waste level covering top of legs and hips. Add at least THREE bags of Ice to the water. Sit for 15-20min.

I live in the South so the water is not cold here either three bags Ice does the trick though.

What about NSAIDs? MSM? DMSO? I’m more concerned with soreness/tightness than CNS fatigue

just use aspirin at night- don’t want to screw up your reaction time and DMSO makes tisue more vulnerable to injury and is best used only with a day or two off or just easy training.

What dosage of Aspirin is appropriate? I typically use Ibuprofen.

80mg or a baby/low-dose aspirin is usually fine and is enough for most off the benefits in the literature.

Prob right. I like aspirin much better than anything else.

Charlie what WOULD slow down your reaction time?
How’s acetaminophen for a pain killer occasionally when eeded?

don’t know about it particularly but most anti-inflams affect R/T even though there is no mention of it in the literature I’ve seen.

Did you do the ice bath yesterday?

I take acetaminophen to sleep i wouldnt use as a pain killer this close to workout

I usually take 2-4 Advil before most meets.

and how is your reaction to the gun usually?

That slows reaction?

It does in my experience

Why are you training hard anyways, your training should be in maint mode since you don’t know when you will get that phone call. The work has been done, now let it show!!!

How did your workout go?

It must have been a good workout because he got picked up.

Congrats!

Yes. Congrats

I have a question about hamstring injuries I am seeing in training camps- when a few cornerbacks get a slight pull what are you suppose to do if your are on contract year and need to prove yourself against rookies trying to take your job since they are cheap labor are able bodied?

How do you keep going Charlie without resting?

NICE. Congrats and good luck.
