			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>Medicine has researched the area of synthetic HGH to stave off the aging process. Several legal HGH replacement therapies have been introduced in the past. However, most of these HGH releasers were expensive. Natural HGH releasers came into existence following the presence of side-effects in some of the preceding HGH replacements. Natural HGH releasers are considered better alternatives. Today, advancement of Medicine has brought natural, non-side-effect HGH replacements, within the reach of common man.<br />
<br />
The anti-ageing formula has tested positive for safety in more than 18,000 studies and has a safety track record of 10+ years. It is without side-effects and is used by people in over 40 countries. HGH Plus is manufactured in FDA-approved labs, and is available in a liquid form. However, be sure that you buy only authentic HGH Plus.</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>Not sure what caused it, but 90% sure I have one, even without visiting a doc. Immediately after sitting down in my car after a particularly heavy day, the very top of my abdomen (right between the two halves of the rib-cage) felt quite crampy and sore; this is definitely more than just the &quot;I over-worked it a bit&quot; feeling that happens to everyone now and then.<br />
<br />
Have been experiencing crampy/dull pain all the day after, with occasional spasms (definitely feel the top part of the abdomen twitching, at times). Occasional bouts of actual pain, but nothing too severe. Extra-strength Motrin and Aleve keeps it reasonably controlled, and from the research I've done, there's very little that I or even a doctor could do, regardless.<br />
<br />
Two questions:<br />
<br />
1. I don't think it's *too* bad, so when might it be appropriate to start lifting again? I'm thinking a minimum of one week. I'm going to at least try to get a decent walk in now and then, if I can handle it.<br />
<br />
2. From what I know, this is a fairly common injury. Anyone have experience with one, or information on how they best dealt with it?<br />
<br />
I have to say, in over ten years of lifting 'seriously', this is only the second time that I've ever actually injured myself, so I'm not particularly experienced in this area.<br />
<br />
Any tips/suggestions would be appreciated ;)</div>
