I am not sure. He is about 3 or 4 now.

It does not help that I am so small, it makes him look even bigger

My friends Pectoral muscle tore while lifting (in the gym) a few weeks ago. He goes in for surgery next week. He has to stay in a sling for 3-4 months and go for therapy for 6 months to a year and will not be able to lift again (at all) for one full year.

Were talking about a guy that benches 435lbs and now can not even do one push -up

Anyone here know someone that this has happened to? If so how long did it take for them to bounce back?

Best advice, quit lifting heavy so often. I had to do 6 months of physical rehabilitation and then another 3 months on a shoulder from benching. I rarely flat bench press. Dumbells are the shit. You can manipulate the range of motion better with dumbells. This allows you to stay away from the painful parts of a lift. Plus I personally think it strengthens the smaller muscles used for stability, helping alleviate the strain on the major muscles. I've met a few guys who tore biceps and pecs. Looks like a huge lump and bruises very badly. the guys I know immediately after surgery started hgh. Just a thought, not advocating hgh.
