Do you find the half size smaller is the best option with the powerlifts? If they are totally different shoes then they 100% don't count as excessive purchases. I mean they would be different colours and everything like!

Must be completely healed. 65% deadlifts are nice and light to start back on too so I'll be grand. OMG I can't put my left leg on the ground. Where are the drugs! And that's me out of the gym for 2 weeks.

I was doing some double pause deads last Monday with 75% for easy doubles ahead of testing on Wednesday and managed to shear a disc and hurt a facet joint locking out my last rep. Just about got my motorbike home, couldn't walk at all for about three days, then managed to walk but not be able to stand up correctly til Sunday, missed the entire week of work because was stuck on the sitting room floor eating pain killers like sweets. Am still sore, was 12 weeks into the Sheiko 20 week programme and on target nicely for a great comp, now all I want from life is to be able to take a dump without pain :rolleyes: Bye bye sheiko, bye bye comp (probably) F*ck it though all you can do is laugh really, be grand .

Alf Veedersane wrote: » Difene and ibuprofen are NSAIDs. What makes ibuprofen more effective for nerve pain?

Alf Veedersane wrote: » Codeine is in Nurofen Plus. But if you buy generic ibuprofen it doesn't contain codeine so I was wondering why 'something with ibuprofen' would be more effective.
Mellor wrote: » He said neurofen plus though. The genetic stuff comes with codeine too if you ask for it. Just seen COH said codine wasnt working though. Not sure what to try after that. Heroin maybe
