Some people, like me, push their workout to a limit that will sometimes cause a strain or a pull.  Yes, sometimes injury too, but please don’t push that hard if you can help it!  Anyway, just yesterday I was doing an intense upper body workout and I strained the muscle between my shoulder blades.  They weren’t torn or pulled, but strained.  And they got tighter and tighter as the evening approached.

The muscles got so tight I remember thinking I couldn’t get a complete breath.  There really wasn’t any flexibility there and there was no relief from a dull ache.  I remembered what two women on my team had told me about Tang Kuei, and how it contained Chinese herbal muscle relaxers.  They take it all the time for menstrual cramps and say it will relax your muscles to the point the pain can at least be overcome.  So I took it!  And I tell you first hand that I don’t know why this pain reliever is so heavily recommended for women, it’s totally for men too!
