Who Are CBDMuscle?
CBDMuscle is a brand of CBD oil products manufactured by Wolfson Berg Limited, a pharmaceutical company that has created many popular health products.
These products are made using European certified hemp, manufactured to UK/EU standards in a GMP approved facility.
The Hemp plants are organically grown and will produce 99% pure cannabidiol. This is then tested to ensure the quality and purity of the products.
Benefits of CBDMuscle
Using CBDMuscle can help:
- Speed up recovery time post-exercise
- Reduce pain and inflammation
- Alleviate anxiety and stress
- Reduce muscle spasms
- Help regulate sleep
How Does CBDMuscle Work?
When you use one of the products available from CBDMuscle, the cannabidiol will interact with the receptors of your endocannabinoid system. For example, your vanilloid and GPR55 receptors.
This helps to relieve pain and can also reduce inflammation too. Therefore helping to speed up recovery from intense exercise.
Cannabidiol also interacts with your serotonin 5-HT1A receptors, which helps to reduce anxiety, your stress levels and your mood.
Is CBD Oil Proven?
There is plenty of scientific research that shows how CBD oil can help reduce pain and inflammation [1][2].
Research has also shown that it can offer other benefits including:
- Reduced risk of diabetes [3]
- Less risk of cardiovascular disease [4]
- Reduced risk of developing cancer [5]
- Better brain health [6]
- Protection against bone disease [7]
- Less anxiety and stress [8]
CBDMuscle User Testimonials
As CBDMuscle is still a new brand user testimonials are currently a little sparse.
However, there are athletes who have tried this brand and have been impressed by its ability to aid muscle recovery, while helping to reduce inflammation and pain.
World kickboxing champion Robert Taylor is one of the athletes endorsing this brand, with Supermoto champion Chris Eastwood also a fan.
Potential Side Effects of CBDMuscle
There are proven benefits to be gained from using CBD, however, there are also potential risks [9] you should know about too.
Potential side effects include:
- Anxiety
- Changes in appetite
- Mood changes
- Diarrhoea
- Dizziness
- Drowsiness
- Dry mouth
- Nausea
- Vomiting
My advice would be to start off using a low dosage to see how your body interacts with CBD. You can always increase the dosage if you encounter no ill effects.

Conclusion: Will CBDMuscle Aid Your Training?
It is clear that using a supplement that contains CBD oil can aid your training.
Cannabidiol is proven to reduce pain and inflammation, which will reduce the time spent recovering from exercise. Its ability to reduce stress and anxiety can also help with pre-game nerves too.
