I usually use NSAIDs like Ibuprophen for normal lifting pains, aches, etc. when I have to. I recently got access to a few boxes of celebrex and wanted to see what you guys thought of it.
I use vicodin when my serious injuries get bad, and I have percocets and oxy on hand for really bad days, but I don't want to use that type of shit for everday joint pains.

Perc and oxy are used by lots of strongman competitors...a good friend of mine passed away due to his abuse last year...
I put icy hot on all my major joints before every workout...very lightly: elbows, biceps, forearms, knees, under my knees, lower back, and my neck. It helps to warm me up and to keep inflammation down before it starts...
I know they're pretty sketchy drugs, but a couple of my injuries are serious enough to use drugs that strong. Sometimes I'm stuck on the floor for hours and can't move at all or the already severe pain will triple. I don't mean to whine, just justifying the use.
Also, I'm going to go get some icy hot before leg day tomorrow and give it a try
