Whether you are a professional athlete or a fitness enthusiast, the
muscle soreness and joint pain in the 12- to 48-hour time frame after a
vigorous workout can serve as a major frustration. The good news is

that leads to greater stamina and strength. The bad news is that
without proper management of the inflammation that accompanies muscle

(NSAIDs), which can be harsh on the stomach, consider implementing the
following nutritional strategies as an alternative method to help
reduce inflammation and facilitate quicker recovery times.

When Mickey Kay and Brittany Murlas of UC Berkeley decided to offer a
class in wheelchair basketball, they worried that only a few people
might show up. To their surprise, more than 30 students enrolled - and
most were not disabled. "I don't know of many places where people sign up to play a sport
where they strap themselves into a chair," said Kay, 24, whose spinal
cord was injured in a bicycle accident four years ago.
He and Murlas, 22, came up with the idea for the class after talking
about how adaptive physical education could play a bigger role at Cal -
