Shit DG-
I feel for you bro. Hope everything turns out to be alright. Just make sure not to aggrivate t even worse by lifting with your ego. I think all the crew that lift with you are anxious to see you hit a grand within a few years, so do what you need for that goal.
Later..

1-20-02:
ME Bench:
Well, not much to tell, other than I have totally f'd up my entire upper body. My tendonitis is horrible, (I have it in my bicep tendon, tricep tendon, and all down my forearm to my wrist), my rotators are torn up for the first time ever, my upper back is shit - basically I'm a mess.
My strength is down as far as lockout strength is concerned because I have had two bench workouts in a month. And all I've done at those workouts is work in my shirt - I was so destroyed afterwards that I had to stop.
After talking to Tommy Fannon (and will be giving Dave Tate a call in the morning) I believe I will be taking several weeks off the benching. I will do AR only for two weeks at least, and then begin back slowly with the benching. I'll start with 3 rep maxes and if all is well after a few weeks, I'll move into the singles.
I also need a new bench shirt. I have a bunch of money right now, but I'm spending it too fast and was hoping to save a fair amount of it, but I think its about time to get a Karen's Double.
Anyway, that's about it.

dg21 - a vicious cycle
be careful man. if you are not training for a meet, consider letting yourself heal for a week or so.
what's one week in the grand scheme of things?
best of luck.
btw: i pulled a glute muscle squatting the other day. fortunately, i have my wife jump up and down on it twice a day and it seems to be working itself out. i dont think i could pay a therapist enough to rub my scar-tissued laced ass.

Rack pulls today - my worst lift cause i get speed off the bottom and suck at the top.
worked up to 705 which wasn't all that hard.
I felt a little pop in my low back so I stopped. Hurts now, but nothing horrible.
So now my quad is hurt as well as my back. I need some super healing to take place to get me ready for my hardest week of circa max on fri. I don't want to stop training because of the upcoming meet in Feb, but if I really have to, I may take a week or two off from squating and pulling and just work my bench. Maybe I can figure out my shirt in that time.
Irish, hope that glute heals fast. I'm lookin forward to seeing you hit 9 in the squat at your next meet.
