Member 830, 314 posts SQ 235, BP 155, DL 240 630.0 kgs @ 130kgs UnEq	There seems to be a fair bit of evidence that taking non steroid anti-inflammatory pills like asprin and ibruprofen may reduce muscle growth after exercise.. I used to take quite alot of asprin and ibruprofen but maybe i'll stick to paracetomol now! http://jap.physiology.org/cgi/content/full/103/2/415

I personally prefer the stiffest possible. Member 158, 3110 posts SQ 170, BP 107.5, DL 222.5 500.0 kgs @ 67.4kgs UnEq	I believe it is indeed true but if you are in pain then you have to weigh up the odds. I have never seem negative effects from nsaids

Still mostly bodybuilding Member 501, 10465 posts SQ 220, BP 150, DL 250 620.0 kgs @ 94kgs UnEq	My knee and bicep has been in agony for the last week or so and ive been on ibruprofen 4 times a day. Wouldnt event consider not taking it given that i probably wouldnt be able to get out of bed.

Member 830, 314 posts SQ 235, BP 155, DL 240 630.0 kgs @ 130kgs UnEq	I believe uk sport are funding a few studies in the run up to london 2012 looking at the activation of muscle satelite cells following training while giving a NSAID or not.. it will be interesting to see the results..
