Bodybuilding, Nitrix Oxide and diving...

Hi Everyone

I've done a quick search through the forums for NO (Nitric Oxide) and can't see anything which answers my question.

Basically, I am a keen weight trainer / amateur bodybuilder and as such take a whole range of supplements. One of them is an NO based product which increases muscular vascularity and thus "pumps" whilst working out. I take this 30 minutes prior to a gym session (5 - 6 times per week).

My question is whether I am increasing / decreasing the likelihood of a bend. Originally, I thought I was probably increasing the chances of a bend but having read some of the posts from other threads, I'm not so sure.

Since many (most) NO products are now banned in Ireland (No-Xplode, Superpump250 etc etc...) I have to order via the UK and collect them when I go home. I wasn't planning on taking any NO supplementation with me when I travel to Egypt with ancl but since reading the posts outlining potential benefits, I'm giving it some thought.

Are there any doctors / medical professionals / bodybuilders on YD who know about this or have an opinion? A friend of mine in the US feels there are no risks but he's a bodybuilder, not a medical professional / scientist.

Thanks in advance!
