{Lifting Pain} 4 Ways to Defeat It for GOOD
Published: Wed, 04/09/14
First off, thanks for the input
last night.
I got some KILLER ideas that
I know you're going to love!!!
Now that I got that out, let's get
pumped and cranking for today...
HUMP DAYYYY.....YEA!!!!
I'm gonna hit the gym early today
but before I do, there's a question
that I wanted to answer...
It comes from Lars Olbich all the
way over in Stockholm, Sweden:
"Hey coach, I'm noticing some pretty
fast gains from the Swole System, but
sometimes when I'm forced to workout
early in the morning I notice my lower
back, shoulders, and knees are stiff and
sore, and it affects my lifting. Anything
you would advise I do? Thanks in advance."
Great question bro!
You know there's nothing that sucks more
than dealing with muscle and joint pain..
When I was in competitive strongman
and powerlifting I was always aching
the most when I was at my biggest and
strongest...
So first off, the fact that you're getting gains
is telling me that you're atleast doing the right
things in the weight room...
But here's 4 tricks I've picked up over
the years from the "Iron Men" of the
lifting world that will allow you to get
all those gains, without feeling any of
that annoying and sometimes debilitating
knee, back, and shoulder pain...
1) Pop 2-3 Aleve or Advil about 30 minutes
before hitting the gym, and right before you
walk through the door rub on some Icy Hot
or Bio-Freeze to the tender areas (these will
not treat, but dull the pain that's being caused
by joint & muscle inflammation so you can
still lift and get the results you've been getting).
2) Supplement with Glucosamine, Chondroitin,
and Essential Fatty Acids to promote greater
joint health (I know it sounds like an old guy
thing to do, but the stuff works!)
3) After lifting, start taking contrasts baths or
icing the sore areas for 10-15 minutes at a
time, or if you really wanna speed up recovery
& reduce pain causing inflammation try contrast
baths out (hot water soaking for 3 minutes followed
by ice water soaking for 1 minute...do this 3-5 rounds
and you'll feel great).
4) You gotta put more emphasis on your "priming"
routine. This is the single most valuable tip I got
from one of my lifting mentors and it continues
to allow me to not just lift pain free, but build more
muscle, strength & explosiveness, all while shedding
a lot of the fat that I put on when I was in competitive
lifting.
Here's the easiest way to do it so you can
start actually getting FASTER gains, and
lift pain free:

My boy Justin A. used it for the same problems
you're having and it's been his "savior":
"Chandler I can't begin to tell you how
indebted I am to you. I've been lifting
for close to 40 years now and recently
it started to take it's toll. It was getting
so bad at one point that I couldn't lift
with my son or play hoops with him
without bing out for a week or two.
I picked up your program "Primed"
on a whim figuring I had nothing to
lose and within the very first day I felt
like you showed me the fountain of
youth! I'm now going strong with my
son in the gym and on the court every
day without any of the previous issues.
This has been my savior!"
