I workout absolutely hard more than five mornings a week; I started taking one day off just to allow our muscles to recover.
- It didn’t help too much though.
I tend to overlift, run too far plus destruction myself. I got to the point where I kept a heating pad by our bed for leg cramps. I was truly usual with icing in the evening. I started wondering if I should look into pain pills… My husband was heavily against this. I knew there must have been some middle ground. I wanted stronger than icy hot but 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 dentist that prescribes medical cannabis. Every one of us chatted for a bit plus I left with a medical cannabis card plus 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… The area feels tingly plus sporadically numb. It is a more powerful icy hot plus smells better. It also doesn’t leave a gross residue either. I apply our topical in the afternoon before I workout plus right before bed. That seems to do the trick. I always guess when I have forgotten to use lotion too. My legs start to cramp up plus our back tightens, then 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 absolutely pack it when I travel for work or go to our friend’s house.
