Are NSAIDs Hurting Your Training & Performance?

February 14, 2025

I admit it!

I was a heavy NSAID (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) user for many years...

Like countless hard-training athletes, I consumed NSAIDs (my drugs of choice were generic Ibuprofen and naproxen) thinking they would help me recover from training and climbing...and by suppressing pain, perhaps even help me train harder and perform better.

In hindsight, this was a stupid and unhealthy habit!

NSAIDs have no performance-enhancing effects, although they do tamp down pain and inflammation.

Unwanted and Counter-Productive Effects of NSAID Use

The health risks of chronic NSAID use are now well documented: asthma exacerbation; gastrointestinal and renal side-effects including acute kidney injury; and the potential to aggravate hypertension and other cardiovascular diseases.

More immediate and concerning for athletes is research showing that chronic NSAID use inhibits collagen repair—a terrible side-effect for a hard-training climber!

Furthermore, it's now widely recognized that a modest level of post-workout inflammation is a desired signal for the adaptations we seek from training. Therefore, heavy NSAID use to suppress the normal inflammatory response has the unintended consequence of also diminishing the adaptations of training.

Introducing REDUX HP! — Nature's Alternative to Drug Store Pain Killers

To address the common aches and pains of hard-training athletes, we created REDUX HP!

This synergistic 3-in-1 powerhouse combines three clinically studied ingredients—Tart Cherry, Turmeric Curcuminoids, and Ginger—shown to:

  • Reduce joint and muscle soreness (such as DOMS)
  • Improve recovery from rigorous exercise
  • Support healthy inflammatory response
  • Combat muscle breakdown and increase performance

REDUX HP is potent and peerless. It's formulated with the very best plant-based ingredients: Meriva® Curcumin Lecithin/SF, organic CherryPURE® Montmorency Tart Cherry 50:1 concentrate, and Ginger Root Powder. (Read some of the research behind these ingredients here >> )

I hope you'll give REDUX HP a try and feel the PhysiVāntage!

Pure Creatine Monohydrate Powder - Micronized & Unflavored
Hans Florine
PR ! In the bench press!

Albeit, the bench press is not a movement common to climbers, I love it as pure standard measurable movement. I am excited to see the Physivantage creatine increase my pulling power on the rock. - That is this next phase I am in , going into the spring/summer. Two weeks in and I am feeling powerful on my composing, and big arm movement pulling.
