You've read your shit man! Voltaren ( Diclofenac ) is indeed the most popular NSAID here ( Greece ), and  mostly famous for arthritic pain relieving. I used to ignore the continous ibuprofen references, thinking it is just more popular in the US, but i think the Australian guys mentioned it too lately so i wanted to ask and get some feedback. I am happy with Diclofenac's action ( being as uncertain as LBSS is about the placebo effect ) so i am keeping it. Interesting info about hepar and muscle growth impacts.

Thanks both!  :highfive:

PS : Just saw the hangover part, you might want to try 1000mg paracetamol. No idea if they are popular/available overseas, but they work wonders for everyday aspirin-like usage. Most popular brand names here are Depon/Panadol.

It's =/= Its

Its action is good
It's (it is) cold in here.

Too bored to search, does ibuprofen help healing? I mean does it actively act against the inflammation or does it just reduce the pain? Are you happy with it's action?
I am asking because here the most 'popular' and 'proven' nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug is Voltaren ( whose action from what i see is based on Diclofenac ). But everyone seems to swear to ibuprofen on the net so i was wondering if i should give it a chance. Also, pills or gel? Gel massage is what i use, but i've read its nonsence because the gel cant penetrate more than a couple of inches (shut up raptor!), so it can never reach the muscles.
Sooo off topic!  :derp:

^^^ best part is total lack of reaction from ref.

Unfortunately, it is the same ref that calls the charging one second later.

Here's when you know your life sucks:

When your name is "Mick PENNISi" , you are 6'9''/240lbs , and you flop 10 seconds after you're hit by a 600gr air filled ball.

Thanks flander!
I have been consistent with upper this season, that's the secret ( no shit )! Nothing impressive, but PRs are always welcomed.
Pitty my quad injury threw me so much back on the legs training. Hope i can catch up now that i am healthy...  :pokerface:

^Thanks. I gotta disclaim though, they were not consecutive reps: When i am at the dead hang my toes can touch the ground, so i can take a couple of breaths. 10 reps was 4-2-2-1-1. Takes little less than a minute to complete.

Bodyweight@session : ~194.5
Soreness : none
Injuries/aches :  :ninja:

Lance's 3-set-progress template - workout #43

LEG EXTENSIONS:
20@65 lbs
20@80 lbs
20@95 lbs
-Decided to try normal reps, 1:0:1. Was fun, 95 still easy.

BENCH PRESS:
7@148,5 lbs ( +1 rep )
7@148,5 lbs ( +1 rep )
6@148,5 lbs ( same )
Total : 20 reps ( +2 reps )
-Starting to feel it again, those were strong.

SEATED CHEST SUPPORTED MACHINE ROWS:
10@165 lbs ( +2 reps ) ,  :personal-record:
8@165 lbs ( same )
8@165 lbs ( same )
Total : 26 reps ( +2 reps )
Back is definitely getting stronger faster than chest, which was always the case anyway.
