Since everyone else is talking about their injuries...

...last night I was clean and pressing and on the second last clean I caught the bar wrong and my back arched the wrong way. When I pressed it I did the exact same and I'm sure I felt the discs (or whatever they're called) in my spine touch. Now I'm in pain!

Any advice?

Go see an osteo.....simples!

man up and get back in the gym?

Osteo - money.

Willsan - I did carry on cleaning and doing good mornings after so I tried my manly best. Just since this morning I've had an issue!

just kidding mate. just rest up and see if it goes away. if not go to a chiro.

I kinda hyperextended backwards when i failed a 300lb pushjerk - at the time it felt painfull and was hurting for the week following , i dont think you will have any damage to the discs , just a strain of the muscles or sprain of ligament type stuff ..

Willsan - no problem pal. Looking at squatting Monday anyway so hoping a sauna on Sunday will sort it.

Boar - mine was a meagre 200lb.

rest it, if its still painful in a week go and see someone. I have hyper-extended on deadlifts before resulting in a painful lower back that gradually got better within a couple of weeks.
