The BodyBuilder's Cream - Nuclear Strength Sore Muscle Therapy Soothing Analgesic Cream for Bodybuilders, Weightlifers and Athletes

I bought this for my sons who are pitchers for their baseball team. This muscle rub worked well for them to apply to their arms after practice and games. It has a great smell and isn't greasy feeling.

I've finally finished this bottle. I found the smell to be decent but you have to like that camphor menthol smell. Tiger Balm is the gold standard for me, and while I liked this balm I definitely didn't use it when I had Tiger Balm handy. I think for the price it's not really worth it to re-buy. I would rather have the cheap Icy Hot and the pricy Tiger Balm together, I think.

Love this cream! Leaves my sore muscles feeling relaxed! Also love that the product rubs in easy and is not sticky or tacky! Definitely recommend!

My family is involved in competitive swimming, and part of that is running and weights to build muscle. We are no strangers to muscle balms. One of the teens is a dedicated Tiger Balm user, but the rest are open to experimenting. This is a white cream and has a fairly strong smell. Definitely wash your hands after application. It does a nice job at removing some pain but it is the same as any other brand we have used -- not as bad as some, but certainly not better than most. For the price, we expected better than most.

This cream works great for sore muscles after workout. The active ingredient is menthol. It is easy to apply and doesn't feel greasy on the skin. It is cooling and soothing, and does a pretty nice job of taking the edge off the soreness and pain. It does have a menthol scent but doesn't linger long after applications. Overall, I like this cream a lot. It is easy to pack for the gym and works great. Worth giving it a try. Good product.

it’s a little too strong on the skin as far as the burn wear gloves when applying so that you don’t get it in your eyes later and smell is the same as Bengay! at the edge off but would rather bite the light came from CVS.

This took several months to arrive, not sure if that is the norm. It feels very cooling and soothing going on. It’s a pump and the cream comes out thinner than I expected. I guess in a way that’s good. I can spread it more easily across wider areas. The only active ingredient I see is menthol. So I’m guessing it’s that familiar cooling / warming type of sensation that temporarily takes your mind off the pain. I’m no chemist, but the inactive ingredients seem mostly natural to me. Perhaps people who cannot use other products due to health reasons, might be able to use this. That’s just my guess, but please remember an Amazon review is not medical advice. If you have any doubts, always check with your doctor. This product does feel good for some temporary relief. Definitely not a miracle cure, but I’ll take all the help I can get. I’m not a body builder but have enough aches and pains to warrant giving this product a try. There is a distinct smell to it that I don’t like. It’s not exactly repulsive, but I don’t find it pleasant either. And it does hang around. The product does give a nice warming effect which lasts a while.

This is a non-greasy, non-irritating cream that provided nearly instantaneous relief when I applied it to my sore spots. It absorbed quickly and has a very nice cooling effect as well. There is a strong sort of menthol smell, similar to Campho Phenique, but I found it pleasant. It lasted about 15-20 minutes. The bottle is a bit odd though. There is a pump and no matter what I tried, I could not use light pressure to dispense just a little bit of product. I had to pretty much push the top down completely for the product to dispense. The spout is also kind of short so you need to have your hand or finger right below it to catch the product. It was a bit trickier to try to pump this directly onto my skin. I pumped it out, then used an empty roller ball stick to apply it and massage it in (keeps my hands cleaner). I wish this came in a tube instead for easier control with dispensing the product. Otherwise, still a very good product! The dispenser is not a deal-breaker. You just need to figure out how to dispense it for your needs.
