Ibuprofen(AND Tylenol) blunts muscle growth - study

Any speculation on wether this effect happens as much while on cycle also? Discuss.

i can see where this could occur.. but, many of those studies can be "thrown out" when steroids are in the mix.. look at the number of bodybuilders that take anti imflams and make great gains.. for the natural bodybuilder i can see where the study has merit though..

I hope it don't effect gains too much because sometimes it takes 2 Advil just to get to the gym!! Suck's gettin old.

i've never noticed ibuprofen effecting my strength or size. to be honest, i'm always the strongest when taking a little ibuprofen pre workout. i know it's not the safest or healthiest thing to do, but it helps.

doesnt matter what the study says. look at tom prince.....did he have trouble building muscle? hell no! maybe a natural person it may make a slight difference on a celluar level but some one who uses gear? i dont think it makes a difference. a lota guys use asprin,.advil,tylenol and still are huge mofos, so......

I want to bump this because Im having to take pain meds right now for my pain and will also be after surgery and sometime thereafter. I mean I still want my protein synthesis to be high even while im down for surgery.Do you all think this doesnt apply too much to guys that use aas? I have to take my pain meds but im still curious..

The amount of muscle gains suffered is so minimal its not even worth noting. Its like the study they did on diet coke and cancer. I think they started to find trace amounts in mice at a certain amount, which would be the equivilant to 15gallons of DC daily for a human being.

Well I hope thats true in my case.
