What is the most painful injury you have gotten at you gym?

That very well may be what I hurt instead of my rotator hesselite. I just assumed it was even thought I never had it checked. But it hurt for two or three weeks and kept me out the gym. So I felt barbell benching was not worth another potential injury so that is why I went to dumbbells. Besides it is great I never have to wait for the most overused piece of equipment in the gym again.

tore a ligament and a tendon behind my knee when I was doing hamstring curls. It's fully healed but still bothers me to this day whenever I work hamstrings

Overpulled a clean and broke my nose.

Even As I Type

Even as I type, I'm suffering the effects of a rhomboid area injury I got about 16 years ago. I was a kid who had the incredible genetics and ate every supplement in sight, and a guy I was friends with and looked up to was nearby so I decided to go for a few more hack squats to impress him and on number 15 it was like someone took a bat to the back of my neck. I could hear it!

I went to the hospital and got the standard collar and muscle relaxants. Ever since then there was something around the upper middle of my back attaching to my scap that wasn't right.

Now it's pretty bad after these past few months when I re-aggravated it. It's like I lost a ton of muscle in that upper middle area and it's tightening up and pulling so hard on my arms and wrists and fingers that they're tight too.

I hope some of you guys can give advice on how to work this area gently.

Thanks,
