Article: Making Gains Through Injury

"Stay the course, even if it’s not what you’re accustomed to. Once you get back to full speed you’ll be better than ever!"

Is he just assuming we're going to get hurt as often and as badly as him?
 
@ Lexmuscle: At least the guy is giving other people his life experience of what not to do; Paying it forward. Maybe someone will read this and then change the way they train to prevent these injuries happening to themselves. And I'm sure your the next Mr. O....

Never said I was the next Mr. O, but I'm sure as sh-t a HELL of a lot closer than you are ya punk ass dwarf. Obviously this guy doesn't know when to give his muscles, tendons, and ligaments time to heal after injury. He'll be having loads of fun dealing with that sh-t in 10 years.. Injuries take will power and patience to recuperate, and building up muscle around areas that will not heal without surgery will eventually end in a lot of pain and difficulty further down the road. Best to get it fixed while young and able to heal completely.
 
A pec is a muscle, not a tendon. I think pec tears are pretty common for guys benching real heavy, 385 for 15 reps is monster, I can crank out 300, for 1 rep...

This is encouraging to read. Injuries are a part of lifting there's no way around it, which is why I guess they say an average lifter's career is 6 months; that's probably the length of time it takes to get your first injury that's not just DOMS. So it's important to learn how to train around/with injuries. I read something like this an my own aches and pains don't seem so serious in comparison.

Yes I know the pec is a muscle, but from the article:
"there was no reason in my mind to take time off of work to get the tendon reattached"

So your saying he is mistaken and that what he thinks is a torn tendon was just a muscle tear? either way this guy's training and writing are questionable

Well, his writing is certainly questionable, or at least, the editing is. His training, well, I don't know. I've been a rock climber for years, there's a saying; "If you don't fall you're not climbing hard enough.", meaning, you're not challenging yourself. Same holds for weight lifting; if you're not challenging yourself there's little point. The downside of that is injury. It's inevitable if you're pushing yourself day in and day out.

Funny, your making yourself look like the toolbag you are by making degrading comments to others. Simply a Troll in my book. And if your not Mr. O your just another guy looking up to the best. No prize for 2nd place buddy. Keep making yourself feel better about yourself by talking smack to other people on the internet. Internet Toughguy for lack of balls and life.

Have a nice day

Seriously, there's not a damn thing you can say to me that won't change the fact that you're simply a sheep amongst lions. I don't talk smack on a f-cking internet forum unless a pr-ck such as yourself makes a rude comment. I see you're a new member. Let me ask you, what the f-ck have you contributed to this forum that is worth giving a f-ck about? Any worthwhile information? Helped anyone out lately? Until you've proven yourself otherwise, don't even think about saying one damn negative thing to any member here. I come here for answers, and I come here to give answers. If you're butthurt, feel free to respond. If not, go about your business and please be a worthwhile member in the future.
