Your funniest training accident/injury

[Matt_2003]

Whats the funniest accident or injury youve had in the gym.

I've got a few to start

1. When I was 18 pulled both my tricep and bicep in each arm, can you spell "overtraining" lol You have no idea how much of a pain in the arse not being able to move your arms more than inch is, simple shit like eating and drinking became so frickin hard. Took a course of muscle relaxers and about 2 weeks to heal before i was mobile enough to scratch my nose and jerk off again.

2. Blacked out while doing squats, the rack caught the bar and the wall caught my head....

3. Oh yeh mate shit him self while doing hvy squats, never laughed so much in my fuckin life. Dirty bastard ended up leaving his soiled pants in the toilet


(Sigh) memories.

Doing push press... smacked bar into chin. BONG. Luckily didn't do any damage.

And of course the old favorite getting stuck under a bench press with no spotters around... That sucks.

Yep thats always a bitch, happened to me when the gym was about empty, girl there had to run off to get help, felt like such a muppet.

Use dumbells now, makes life simpler......

It wasn't my injury.

A dumb ass kid kept crowding my wife while she was warming up for squats. She was overly polite and wouldn't say anything, but it was pissing me off royally. He was doing some idiot exercise and kept moving into her space with no respect for the fact she was lifting there.

I took her bar... dropped all the weight off it... started warming up with just the bar... and when he came crowding in doing his jumping jack lunge thing - I popped the bar out to the side right into his head.

It spun him sideways... a direct hit.

Then I looked at him all dumb and concerend and said, "Are you okay?"

He stayed a long way away from her after that.

This just happened Sunday...

For those of you who read the training boards, my last two workouts (including the one I did tonight) I have about or have lost my pants (snap up warmups) during Zercher Squats.

on the first occasion, I undid ONE snap that was digging into my leg during the zerchers, when I went up in weight and got to the bottom of the motion, my entire left pant leg exploded open, leaving my leg exposed and my grey tommy boxers showing from the ass to the front...

tonight... I DID NOT undo that button... instead, however... on Zerchers, on both 185 and 225, on the bottom motion, my left pant leg AGAIN exploded (I was wearing those black and white Otomix snap warmups)... however, on 225, the leg blew off the pants all the way up to my waist... I was not wearing my fanny pack, so it wasnt' there this week to HOLD my pants on...

With my wide stance, I mananged to finish out my set without my pants falling totally off... when I racked the weight however, my pants slid completely off... leaving me standing there... in a pair of black tommy boxer breifs... the only consolation I had is that my legs were VERY pumped... and no one was in the gym at 1am.

C-ditty

maybe you should get a Unitard there bro ......j/k


Let's see....I've been pinned on the incline bench already, which isn't that big a deal, because it's pretty easy to roll the weigfht down and clean it.

Pinned on a flat bench....sucks a lot worse

Dropped a 45 lb plate right on my foot - OUCH!
Luckily, nothing was broken or anything

lets see... flying off the back of the stepmill (while checking out a cute guy), slammin my head into the Smith bar (also checking out a cute guy) & getting my pinkie stuck under a heavy dumbell on the rack (while talking to a cute guy).

yeah...chicks are always hurting themselves checking me out at the gym

I bet all of us have unloaded a bar and had the other side spill
making a huge racket that everyone in the gym stares at..

This is the best time to pull down your shorts..
