Chronic Joint Pain From Lifting?

Power Must Hurt by mumpasak, Flickr.comThis is a Sponsored Post

Most of us that have been lifting weight for any length of time have probably suffered from muscle aches and pains (if you haven’t you might be going too light ;-) ). I know that personally, I will get a dull ache in my shoulders if I’ve done a lot of chest or shoulder work. But there are some people that really do suffer from chronic joint pain. This could be either from lifting incorrectly, or maybe from some type of an injury that you have sustained in the past.

For example, in the case of my shoulder I think its a combination of the two. I think that when I first started lifting I was not using good form and probably damaged my shoulder a little. Now, every now and then my shoulder will just not feel right for a day or two at a time. I should probably get it checked out, but one way to reduce the pain on those days would be to use Freeze It Gel.

Freeze It can help with the following aches and pains:

  • Sore Muscles & Muscle Sprains
  • Back, Shoulder, and Neck Pain
  • Muscular Strains

If I was somehow able to win a supply a Freeze It, it would really help me to push through those days where the ache is strongest. Luckily, my pains are not so strong that they keep me from going to work, but they may be enough that I decide not to exercise. I really should get this shoulder checked out, but why ache if you don’t have to?

Here is a commercial about Freeze It Gel in case you haven’t heard about it:

The way I look at it is if using a product like this can reduce the ache and make me feel my best, why not?

    If the joint pain is from inflammation, I’d also try a Black Cherry Extract supplement. I hear that it is great for arthritis and whatnot…

    I get plenty of knee joint pain from cardio, too. I don’t think joint pain is confined to being caused by lifting. Also, while freezing it may cause temporary relief, I don’t think that it is a permanent solution. If you have chronic joint pain, then you should probably see a doctor.

    Over doing or incorrectly doing any type of exercise can certainly cause joint pain. You really have to be careful with any exercise regiment.
