Blown biceps tendon

[Jagermeister]

Gen,


the doctor said that he never got his repaired?
If it was blown completely of the bone, then the bicept would be in a ball at the top of the arm, and he would be unable to lift his arm?
maybe im just confused?


about that grip, their is allot of bicept injuries to the arm with an underhand grip. I would strongly advise you to not deadlift with an alternate grip, but use a hook grip instead.

it is much safer, and there is no risk of injury

Jagermeister, I am confused also as I always thought the bicep
would end up on the shoulder if it blew at the elbow. But he
had me do a test. I put my finger on my left arm in the middle,
front of the elbow and then curled my arm up. I could fell this
big thick tendon. He had me do this on the right, the injured
arm, and no tendon. It is gone.

When I did the injury, there was a big lump in the left, center
of my bicep. It has since disappeared. Do not know if this was
a spasm or the tendon.

My doctor said that he has only lost strength in one direction.
The way I understood it is that strength is reduced when rolling
the hand open, much as when one uses a screw driver.

If I have the repair, I will be too afraid to turn my hand under
again. Will probably try to learn to pull with both hands turned
down.
