After 8 years of lifting, I finally injured myself really badly at the gym. Dropped 185 lbs on my chest while doing hypertrophy sets on close grip BP. Was my fault though, I tried switching to a suicide grip from regular mid set for no reason. Lost control of the barbell and it came crashing down on my chest. No one was around to help either so I had to lift it up off of my chest and throw it in front of me. Bruised/fractured a rib, not too sure what's going on in there. My lungs and diaphragm seem okay so I'm not too worried.
Lesson of the day is, do not use a suicide grip on the BP
Evan Rogers
Go to a doctor but then again you probably didnt break your ribs omarisuf one time dropped 315 on his ribcage and all he got was bruises

Been lifting since I was 13. I'm 21, which makes it 8 years. Cant expect the same strength gains from 13 to 21 as you would from say 21 to 29. I was also going for volume over strength. Could've gone for 245-255 if I was going for a 3-5RM, I was going for reps as I said in the OP

It's literally called a suicide grip you baby man
Jose Sanders
You sound like a real retard btw. And you're 21. Where did you get this 21-29 thing from? You are literally 22 so what would you know about it? I never say this, but you've made me quite mad.. go fuck yourself.

You sound like you have a lot of pent up anger, user. Anything you wanna get off your chest or talk about maybe ?
>leg extensions >still only 5'11 Is there a worse feel, famalan
Cooper Walker
Of course you won't get taller doing leg extensions. The extra leg length has gotta come from somewhere. It shortens your torso to compensate.
Jaxon Morris
Only a fucking idiot would use the suicide grip on the bench press.
