thinner after lockdown Member 594, 4166 posts SQ 100, BP 80, DL 100280.0 kgs @ 120kgs Eq | i was benching earlier today and strained my pec benching 60kg. i felt it go and was waiting for alot of pain because i thought i tore it but it wasnt too bad and its not bruised so i think i just strained it, ive had ice on it for most of the day, is there anything else i can do to quicken up the recovery process? ive got a bench comp in 5 weeks so this really isnt good timing! | ||

Keep on with the icing and if you feel fit later next week try some really light dumbells to begin with then progress to the bare bar. If the pain continues seek expert advice such as "magic hands" Pascal. | ||

Did you feel/hear a rip? And have a sudden loss of strength? well its not bruised now but it tender. and there wasnt a loss of strength because i took 60kg again after (probably not the best thing to do) and the bar moved fast but it was painful. i didnt feel it rip but i felt like sudden pain when the bar was on my chest. | ||
