Aspirin

[shane]

Does anyone take aspirin daily for their training :?

i think i remember reading that one of the guys on here did along with milk thistle or whatever... i tried it a couple times but only because it doubled up to help relieve sinuses a little. since i wasn't used to using it on training, it helped me push quite a lot harder than usual (not by providing more energy, just longer until i felt pain). i'd say if you use it all the time the benefits will probably taper away but since i don't do that regularly it's only speculation.

I remember reading that Aspirin is like NSAIDs and can reduce/hinder protein synthesis as inflammation is supposedly a required process for protein synthesis.

A quite google search will bring up a few results

Take 100mg tab daily not directly for training, blood pressure related

cant say that notice any great difference to training but maybe cause taking it when wake up not directly before training usually 11am.

According to today's NZ Herald, aspirin could lower the risk of skin cancer. At least, if you're a woman. It doesn't mention the guys - we're on our own.

Low daily dose has been shown to be beneficial to health but I don't really see how it's going to directly help your training much
