Tweetall right guys old guns may be out of the bbing game forever. well here is how it went down. jumped on the old incline after doing my rotator cuff warm ups as well as my cable cross over warm up to get stretched and blood in. here is the protocal: 135x20 slow controlled full range pause at bottom and top. 185x20 same thing. 225x15 same deal. 315x12 same deal. felt good felt strong no problems. was going to bust out 405x8 and drop set down to 135. i have done this 100s of times bfore and i can go a hell of alot heavier. rep 1 slow controlled pause felt great. rep2 slow to the bottom pause 2inches up and pop let it back down then helped re rack it. my trainning partner heard it pop too. i felt electricty and a pull in my pec shoulder region. i immediately went to the bathroom to see the damage. i have a slight hole in my outside pec. i have zero bruising and it happened at 9 am. i have full range of motion can contract the muscle. o and no swelling. i know that it is at a minimum of a partial tear it has to be. the only pain that i have at this point is my front delt and in my arm pit a little bit.
ok guys let us drag out our prayer hats on this one. it almost brings me to tears because i felt so good at making my run at one of the national shows this year. i am supper supper bummed right now and i am hoping praying with everything in me that it isnt that serious. for now ice and motrin and a cpl weeks rest most likely

TweetBro Im sorry to hear this but I will be praying for you very hard!!! Dont get to down brother keep thinking positive.

TweetShit bro, it is too soon to say anything as far an injury goes.

Let us hope to God that the pop was just build up and nothing more.
Rest it up, heat it, freeze it....do whatever it takes and hit it back slow bro.
I know this is going to be a little depressing, but injuries are a part of this life.

Keep your head up big man! It is going to be ok!!

Tweet...last time I heard something pop was 3 weeks ago, when I pulled the head of my trap and all the way down to my lower back. Shit hurts daily, I pop in a good 2000mgs of ibo, plus I hook up a hot pad to the affected area..it seems to be subsiding.

3 Months ago just weeks before the show, I popped my front quad flexor on the way up, while doing the leg press, and then my lower opposite back muscle just above my glutes on the way down----two tears in just one movement wtf.

TweetGuns-

sorry to hear that buddy! But u better go get checked out, you might need surgery to fix it. If you don't it will heal incorrectly and never work right. Plus you'll always be able to see the hole in the muscle.

B2J4e-

watch out man, IB (and/or any NSAIDs) are VERY HARD ON YOUR KIDNEYS! Not to mention only cover up the pain, they dont solve the problem. Sounds like u might need some surgery too.

If you're using high dose NSAIDs regularly, make sure to drink extra water and u might as well add Cranberry juice as well. Kidney damage is no fun trust me.
