| Step away from the bench; hammer heavy flat bench dumbbell presses and more incline presses for a while, this and strict OH pressing too! I got stuck on bench for ages (180kg); couldn;t get passed it and it took me an age to get there! I left it alone and did the above for a good few months, did some bench lock-out work too and managed to get 187.5kg on the first week back of benching! Oh, put your feet on the floor too... Good boy | |||

| If you've any dark bruising; I'd personally go and see a decent sports physio ASAP so they can assess what it is you've done, maybe have a look with an ultrasound and then advise you from there! I'd leave any stretching for the time being, could open up the tear more! | |||

Post Edited: 29.10.2016 @ 14:50 PM by hifilover As aboveSee how it goes over the next 48 hours or so If it starts to go black, it's a deepish tear, if just light bruising, not too bad, if no bruising at all, probably superficial and just ease off heavy squats/deads and hamstring stuff until you're happy with how it feels! Torn my right ham a few times now, nothing ever too serious, but it comes back to haunt me every so often, more so on axle deads for some unknown reason  | |||

Sounds like gastroenteritis pal  Had it myself end of July, lost 2 stone in 5 days!!! Keep yourself as hydrated as possible, try and get some electrolytes in you but stay away from the hydralite s**te from the supermarkets as its full of s**tty sweetners etc! Try and eat, but very light, little & often. Thin soups, plain crackers etc! Good luck | |||

IrishMarc said: Just get fat lad.... I mean train smarter or something. Haha, I'm 134kg, that's enough ta Na, I've buggered my left shoulder/neck again, so bench has been all about reps and not out and out maxes Did manage 177.5kg for 2 paused reps the other week, but 180kg just seems to not want to go...! But last weeks benching was s**t, managed x3 paused reps with 157.5kg and it's like someone had turned a magnet on underneath, felt so heavy! | |||

| » Maintaining strength whilst dropping bodyweight (Go to post) | 27-09-2016 @ 17:28 | ||
| I did it last year; dropped from 142kg to 126kg (back to 132kg now haha) Hit the cardio (stationary bike, walking and cross-trainer thingymebob), hard, but short and sweet (no more than 30mins at a time & everuy session bar legs (so 3 times a week)); cut carbs out after lunchtime, cut dairy and wheat right back, ate plenty of green veg, hammered eating meats (I'm not really a protein supplement user), drank loads of fluid, but maintained my heavy lifting on core exercises (bench, squats, deads, OH strict & push-press etc) Didn't lose any strength at all; but I did do it over a 12 week period and was strict from the word go! | |||
