What was it like? I think mine is torn. I was benching, all of a sudden my pec got really tight, and then I heard and felt a tear. I couldn't do shit after that. I'm going to the doc tomorrow. Any advice? Recovery time? Treatment?     | ||

That happened to a buddy of mine...I thought he tore his bicep after he showed me the inside of it turning blue and black. But his Dr told him it was his pec...Your right for going to see a Dr, wouldn't want to take any chances....He wasn't able to do anything for 3 months and it took about a year afterward before he was able to start building back up | ||

If its a full out tear, as in, torn in two pieces, i don't know... how much bruising is there? could it be just a bad strain? is a sharp pain like you would get with a pulled hammy? or does it just hurt like fuck all the time and you can't do a thing? if its a bad strain, i have had one of those. Active Release Treatment helped a great deal. Also, have you had any shoulder problems/imbalances? If so, those can put additional stress on the pec. Anyway, you may want to check out A.R.T. ------------------ | ||

It might be just a bad strain. It hurts like fuck when I use that muscle. Yes, I have a shoulder problem on the same side as my pec injury. Hurt it in Football this past season. Fucking doctor can't get me in for another week. This sucks. I am testing for a JuCo team in late April. I doubt it will be repaired by then. ahhhhhhh! Can you tell me more about A.R.T??? Thanks | ||
