 I took about £4 out of Sooty's bottom Member 685, 8719 posts SQ 225, BP 150, DL 290665.0 kgs @ 93kgs UnEq | Post Edited: 31.10.2012 @ 19:22 PM by PAGAN f**king benching without a spotter just now and stupidly went for an extra rep that turned out not to be there.Had to bin in on the lower pin on the rack and as I did I felt a jolt/snap in my arm where my outer bicep meets my shoulder. There is a visible delve up near the shoulder, not big (f**king couldn't be on my spaghetti arms)but definitely there. I'm getting spasms / twinges if i move it but no pain.I can move it but obviously I'm not attempting to test the limits of my range of movement.Oh and i can flex it. I've come straight home and put ice on it. I know the sensible thing to do would be to nip to A&E but for one reason and another that's something I really want to avoid tonight.Am I right in saying they wouldn't do much of anything tonight even if it was torn? Any input would be great cheers lads. f**king benching!  | ||

I thought I had torn mine once,I was Dumbbell Pressing and I just couldn't control the final rep it came crashing down and at a dodgy angle,I left a Sharpe pain and a snap and it was swollen 20 minutes after,bruised the next day. I went to A&E 24 hours later they said just to rest it,after 2 weeks there was no bruising but still felt sore.It took 3 months before I started to see some recovery I can do chin ups now for reps so I am ok.Get it checked out asap | ||

 always lookIng for the extra UT2 work. Member 9, 18279 posts SQ 210, BP 167.5, DL 260637.5 kgs @ 103kgs UnEq | Sounds like a partial tear a bit like big Mick had. I don't think they'd do anything with it anyway. You'll be reet kid!  | ||

Well when it was swelled it looked like it was concentrated in one area,it was a little ditched in after it all went down.You can still see it a little bit now but it isn't really noticeable unless you get really close up. After that I just did stuff that didn't involve the Bicep too much,I rested completely for 2 weeks after I got the injury I didnt want to take the risk of making it worse | ||

Problem with the Docs/Nurses at the A&E is they cannot do s**t for you,you sit for 5 hours waiting for them to tell you to rest it and take some pain killers. I am sure you will be ok any how Rash | ||
