In any form of exercise, although you can minimize your risk of injury, you can’t remove the risk altogether. Powerlifters can typically expect to experience one or two injuries each year and there can be nothing more frustrating than when you have to take a number of weeks out of your training schedule to allow recovery. During this time you no doubt do anything you can to speed your recovery to get back lifting weights and this may involve use of medications to help you get over your injury. Torn muscles and other soft tissue damage can certainly be painful, but over-reliance on painkillers is usually not the answer. Heavy use of pain medication can bring its own problems, so taking a more natural approach to ease your discomfort alongside more traditional therapies might be a better approach.
