RIMADYL (pronounced âRim-a-dillâ) is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) approved by the FDA for once-or twice-daily dosing to relieve the pain and inflammation in the joints of dogs with arthritis. Pain medications that help manage arthritis pain in people â like aspirin â can be toxic to dogs.
One of the biggest myths about weight lifting is that it stunts your growth. No studies have ever been shown that lifting weights stunts or inhibits growth. But, as with any exercise program, if you do too much too soon, physical problems can occur no matter how old the person doing the exercise is.
But most importantly, all three aspects of muscle growth are interrelated. Muscle tension with heavier weights can cause fiber damage that allows for swelling and metabolic stress to occur. Muscle tension with lighter weights and more time under tension triggers metabolic stress, during which blood canât escape your muscles quick enough, and helps promote growth. And then tension with moderate weight for more reps or different exercises ignites both metabolic reactions and damage.
