I'm in the middle of a 10 week program and I'm thinking of going for a message at the end of the program. I was wondering if there any specific message's that are good for lifters. A friend of mine said that there sports message's you can get but I can not find any around here. Have any of you had any experience with message's?

I prefer the Russian massage parlors. :D
But srsly deep tissue massages are supposed to be great. After my finals are over I'll definitely be getting one.

Price depends on area. Good rule of thumb for a general cost of your average massage is $1 a minute. You'll pay a bit less for bulk time or a less experienced person and a bit more for a specialist. In any event they're well worth the cost in terms of recovery.
When you go tell them what you do and why you want the massage. Drink some water before and after, and have some advil handy for the evening.

Might be worth asking them to do your IT bands and delts as well as the usual back stuff. Explain the movements you use the most to them, so they know where to concentrate. Don't assume they understand lifting, they probably deal more with tennis and golf injuries.

Here's a message for you that you don't have to wait any longer for -
Train hard, eat a lot, and only masturbate on Thursdays! Good luck!
