Subject: I lifted stupid today...(here's what happened)...
So today I was loading a freezer into the back of a cargo van by myself and I lifted it in a stupid way.
Instead of squatting down behind it and lifting like I should, I leaned down sideways beside it and half pushed and half pulled the thing up into the back.
Stupid.
And yep, I tweaked my left side lower back while doing it...noticed it right after I got it up and into the van.
It's not too bad, but it's definitely sore right now.
And I've got a training session to do in a few minutes...so I thought to myself...
"You know, I should use that pain cream that I received a sample of a little while back"...
I had gotten a heads-up on this stuff from another trainer friend of mine and he had the maker of the cream to send me some samples, even though I rarely use any sort of pain cream or anything like that.
He said the stuff was awesome and worked extremely well for him and his clients. It's called "MindBody Matrix Pain Relief Cream."
(this picture is the small sample size I got...it comes in full-size bottles when you buy it).
Now, I generally don't have need for pain relief as I don't have any chronic issues with pain, or if I get injured, I'll just suck it up until it feels better.
Today, I used some of the cream on the area and I felt an IMMEDIATE decrease in pain in my lower back.
Like within 10 seconds it hurt less.
There was definitely a lot less pain. I could still feel the tweak was there. I mean, this stuff doesn't magically cure injuries or anything like that.
But I could move better, even in the exact movements that hurt just a minute before. I'll still need to make sure I don't lift anything stupidly when I train but it took down the pain a LOT.
This stuff worked and worked FAST.
Beyond acute injuries, I think this cream has MASSIVE potential for people who have chronic pain (like back pain) or arthritis.
My experience with it has been very good. I'm still using it and will definitely use it again on any injuries I might get in the future (when you push yourself, injuries happen...that's just how it goes).
You still need to let injuries heal before you go back full power again, but with something like this as an option, there's no need to suffer while the healing process happens, especially if the pain of the injury interferes with your sleep (which would slow the healing of it).
The mechanism by which it works goes beyond just simple medicinal ingredients.
You can read more about it here.
It's a really fascinating concept called "Bioenergetic Imprinting." It sounds very strange when you first read about it, but it's been proven effective by more than 4,000 peer-reviewed studies.
For me, I like having the studies to back up what I actually FELT working.
All the risk is on THEM.
What I like about this company is that stand behind their product. This stuff is not cheap, so they offer a full 60-day money-back guarantee on the cream.
If you get it and try it and it doesn't do the trick for you...even if you use the ENTIRE bottle...they'll give you a full refund.
Even if you DON'T use the entire bottle, if you ask for a refund after using it a couple of times and it doesn't work to your satisfaction, you'll get to KEEP the bottle.
Bottom line, if you suffer from pain, this is worth trying and you literally have NOTHING to lose.
Go to their website and read more about it.
It worked for ME from the moment I tried it.
And I think it could work for YOU.
