I workout entirely strenuous more than 2 days a week, i started taking one morning off just to allow my muscles to recover.
It didn’t help too much though.
I tend to overlift, run too far and destruction myself. I got to the point where I kept a heating pad by my bed for leg cramps. I was undoubtedly proper with icing in the evening. I started wondering if I should look into pain pills, but my husband was heavily against this. I knew there must have been some middle ground. I wanted stronger than icy hot however not as addictive as prescription pills. I then found that a lot of people rely on medical marijuana for chronic pain. I went to a doctor that prescribes medical cannabis; Every one of us chatted for a bit and I left with a medical cannabis card and a script for topicals. I love that a topical doesn’t get you high. It is a light cream that is applied directly to the skin, then the part feels tingly and occasionally numb. It is a more powerful icy hot and odors better. It also doesn’t leave a gross residue either. I apply my topical in the morning before I workout and right before bed. That seems to do the trick. I always think when I have forgotten to use lotion too. My legs start to cramp up and my back tightens… As soon as I notice the pain I put on the cream. It works wonders. I love that it is quite small too. I can actually pack it when I travel for labor or go to my friend’s house.
