jesus christ /fit/
a big guy at my gym blew out his fucking knee deadlifting today, audibly
>crrrackPOP
I can't stop thinking about it now, I'm honestly afraid of lifting now, his shit is ruined
>>36866449
This shit terrifies me. I'm only a beginner, but I'm thinking about substituting squats and deadlifts because of this shit
No risk no reward fagit
With how much weight? Probably never did leg day and combined it with shit form.
>>36866449
Babby shit. Dude on the 4x100 team when I was at school ruptured ACL and MCL at training. I heard the bang from the other side of the track. The guy who was passing to him stepped on his heel as he pushed off
>>36866449
>squating
Not even once.
reminder that being 'big' has nothing to do with whether or not you're injury prone
reminder that the only thing that matters is your bone density and that if you're a tall lanklet fucker with weak girly bones, you have shitty lifting genetics and are more prone to breaking your shit up than my god tier mesomorh 5'7 bone genetics
>>36866744
Its extremely unlikely his knee bone broke. Its all the shit around it.
>>36866744
>lankcucks getting BLOWN the FUCK out
lankcucks on suicide watch I REPEAT lankcucks on suicide watch
>administering calcium
>>36866744
>bone density is relevant to ligaments
>>36866449
It takes truly shitty form to have any risk of knee injury on a goddamn deadlift.
>>36866713
I played on my college's rugby team. Saw a guy on an opposing team "Kevin Ware" his forearm when someone fell hard on it as he was bracing it against the ground. Bone wasn't showing though. There was a noise behind it you could hear across the goddamn field.
>>36866481
>being this much of a goddamn pussy
>actually thinking you can substitute squats and deads
A: flat bench, flies, curls, OHP, pull-ups
x: rest
AxAxAxAx
How retarded is this for a noobie, such as myself?
>>36866895
Very, why are you ignoring lower body?
>>36866898
Got varicocele (wide veins in my ballsack) so I don't wanna make it worse.
>>36866906
What?

>>36866895
this much.
just read the sticky and do the fucking SS
>>36866895
You'll kill your upper body from not enough rest
>>36866916
Many have fallen for the SS meme. Not this guy.
>>36866910
Don't wanna put pressure onto that area, because my veins are gonna go even wider. Fuck that.
>>36866930
You're fucking retarded, and you're not gonna make it.
>>36866928
Isn't 48 hour rest enough?
>>36866935
I have a good face and I'm tall.
I've already made it.
>>36866449
dont do roids until you have lifted for 2-3 years and this wont happen.
>>36866878
I don't understand that reference but I assume it'd be similar to this:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NE1JIyAcFIo
>>36866449
This can happen if you train like a dumbass on roids, which are the people more prone to training like dumbasses.
Basically when roiding your muscles recover quicker between sessions, but your tendons and ligaments still recover at a natty rate, so they are getting beat up because roiders train for long periods of time and with a lot of volume not giving their bodies adequate rest.
Eventually this leads them to snap city.

I fucked up my form on mixed grip deadlift and flexed my arm yesterday.
>that tug on my bicep tendon
My life flashed before my eyes. Mixed grip is some dangerous stuff family.
>>36866895
You can detach your bicep tendon doing curls, better skip those.
>>36866988
Seems like it. Kevin Ware was a University of Louisville basketball player who, some years ago, broke his shin in half simply from landing after a jump because basketball players are a bunch of brittle, soft, unlifting pussies.
You HAVE to be European or something to have not of heard about that. It was national news for a solid week.
>>36867062
HOOK GRIP
>>36866988
>>36867627
I DONT HAVE THE FOREARM STRENGTH DAMNIT
>>36867062
I fucked my elboe by arm wrestling, feelsbad doing mixed grip now. Should i go bitchmode straps or just swap hands on the mixed?
>>36867676
>what is hookgrip
reminds me of a similar story
>2 years ago
>my second week of the gym all time
>doing squats in the rack
>guy beside me is doing 5pl8
>I have done 2 sets and this guy has yet to get under the bar
>guy looks pretty dyel actually

>I decide to watch while resting for my next set
>unracks the weight

>guy is screaming similar to someone set on fire
>the scream haunts my dreams til this day
>crying and screaming on the floor
>by this time everyone in the gym comes to take a look
>ambulance called guy gets stretchered out
>rumor has it the guy never walked again
>when I ask gym staff about it they say they aren't allowed to comment on it
>just mention ego lifting is dangerous
>didn't squat for a month after that
Really scared the fuck out of me, being so new to the gym I thought holy fuck the gym is hardcore I had no idea, haven't seen anything even 10% as fucked up as that since
>>36866759
you sure are insecure
>>36866895
if you are hellbent on not training lower body, at least train a bit more variably
A: Bench, Pendlay row, kroc row, dips
B: OHP, klokov press, lateral raises, pullups
but dude, just do the fucking SS no joke
this is why 1/2/1/2 is the actual goal most lifters should aim for
any more and you're asking for serious injuries
>>36866878
I had something like that happen to me.
We were playing some sort of rugby/NA football mix and I passed the ball, but a friend decided to tackle me and landed with his knees directly on the forearm I used to protect my face from the ground.
Straight arm + lot of weight right on it, my arm then had 2 right angles a few inches from the wrist.
Brain didn't quite register until like 15 seconds later
>>36866449
> Did i ever tell you the story of Darth Dyel the small?
>>36867833
never post again gainsgoblin
>>36867833
>60kg squat
>100kg deadlift
>actual goal most lifters should aim for
maybe for their first session at the gym, even a ghost of a holocaust jew lifts more than that after a month
>>36866713
I hope he sued that faggot
>>36868230
It's America, he could sue the people who built the field
What a country
>>36868240
I mean the asshole that stepped in his damn ankle while he was lifting heavy
>>36866449
Fucking sumo shits
>>36868262
The injury happened during a relay practice not lifting, but hey it's not my first language either
>>36867453
Ausfag living in japan and couldn't give less of a fuck about niggerball
You don't JUST blow out a muscle or joint. You'll feel pain leading into it. He was retarded and ignored that pain. Know the difference between soreness and pain and you'll be fine.
I'd sue the fucking owners of the gym I'd that ever happened to me.

>>36866449
How much was he lifting? What was his age?
I cracked a rib last week boxing with my buddy.
>can't bench
>can't squat
>no diddlys
It's like my whole life's been put on hold.
I just wanna make it.
Especially squats. How do I keep doing lower body?
>>36868814
NO PAIN NO GAIN AUUURAGH
>>36869249
Just let yourself heal mang
making it is a marathon that never ends, no hurry
>>36867723
thanks for the story anon
>>36866744
I'm 6'2 but I agree with your sentiment.
My brother and I have done insanely stupid shit and the buddies who have been with us either died or fucked themselves up.
We were always fine. Must of been the breast milk and milk in general. Probably genetics.
FROMAGGIO AL FORNO
>Good thinkin' mama
>>36869937
Milk actually has no effect on bone density. You know what does? Lifting weights. That's why they do resistance training in space at the iss
>>36869249
Leg extensions....
I'm sorry anon
>>36867723
kek city 4000
>>36866895
You can always do a one-leg squat progression, anon. It doesnt put as much pressure on your balls and gives you decent legs.
>>36869957
Not even breast milk in babby development?
How'd we survive tho?
>>36869249
iktf bruh...
Strained my rotator cuff when i fell during a ski trip last year.
>Shoulder felt like it has been torn off
>Lifting anything heavier than an empty water bottle kills me
>that was 4 months ago
>4 months of nolift
It's much better now though.
I just went back to my old routine without experiencing pain last night.
>>36866744
>fuck lanklets they have inferior bones
>long live 5'5 master race
found the manlet
>first time squat
>watched jewtube vids for proper form and how to use the smith machine
>try 2 x5 with only bar
>bretty easy
>load 25 pl8s
>finish 3x5
>feel great
>latter that day
>try going up the stairs but cant
>have trouble sitting down or getting up
>next morning legs and ass on fire
Aside from muscle pain, no other pain so fuck it I'm gonna do it again next week
>>36870084
That's just DOMS.
Also,
>STOP USING THE FUCKING SMITH MACHINE YOU DUMB FAGGOT FOR FUCKS SAKE DO YOU WANT TO TAKE A RIDE ON THE GAINS GUILLOTINE?!
>>36866449
How much was he lifting? Im dyel af but never felt any pain while doing deadlifts. Squatting is a whole other story I feel like my femur is cracking.
>>36867062
How much weight were you lifting?
I use mixed grip because I can't keep the bar from rolling away otherwise.
>Using leg drive during deadlifts
Fucking sumolifters when will they learn
>>36866744
>Somatotypes are real
'no'
>>36866449
>a big guy
4U
>>36867669
Warm up double over handed and then go to straps for your heaviest sets. Fuck the haters. Shrugs and rowing variations will still work your grip.
>>36868814
>lean over to pick up soccer ball
>achilles tendon ruptures
It was a cold day but I had no pain warning before.
>>36870798
> muh unique body type !!!!!
I have a related story
