Pec Tear
Ouch.........I tore my spinal erectors from my hamstrings......try that on for size.......though it was not complete.......the pain was glorious. I had to be carried to take a shit and carried back after I was done.
When I did it.....it sounded like a zipper lol.
But anyway.....no surgery & I didn't squat again with weight for a year.....just worked around it. I tried it at 6 months with little weight.....nope.....I knew I fucked myself up for a bit.......hope he's ok. Best of wishes.

I tore my left pec tendon right off the bone about a year ago bench pressing. Had to have surgery to re-attach it. It was about 3 months after the surgery that I could start training chest again and it was with the lightest weights possible. At around 6 months time my strength was improving quite a bit. Its still not 100% to this day.
It sounded like velco when I tore it. Now I have a nasty scar about 5 inches long to remind me of that day.

pecs are nothing to play with in every gym theres always the guy trying to impress everyone on how much they bench but the only downfall is they lift it incorrectly by bouncing and jerking the weight to get it up thats where the pec is subseptible to injury keep in mind if you use proper form you will get stronger anyway
because you actually work the muscle throughout its entire range of motion,one time when my partner and i were competing against each other with 405 i felt a bad pull on the left upper pec which was a warning sign to take it easy and for 2 months after that whenever i hit my 3rd set of bench i felt that pull again so what i did was hit decline by using DBs and also very important is to ice it right after the workout to keep the inflammation down. its nice being able to hit 4 plates even 3 plates is good too but tear a pec and you can kiss even 1 plate
goodbye.

I'm with NYIRONMAN on this......people have to remember......if you BBing.....you are working on physique mostly........use pre-exhaustion principles. You know.......do flys with moderate weight that you can do at least 15 times with PERFECT FORM then drop them right away and do bench or or dumbbell presses as heavy as you can for about 8 times. Powerlifters never know how strong they are.....the real ones.....'till competition day. They just won't risk singles or doubles. You are not trying to show off.....you are doing serious and dangerous WORK.
