Nags and niggles that you train with?

[britishguy]

Just curious to see what you guys train through. Friends I know, some have bad elbows, knees, do you guys have any little injuries that you train through?

Mine at the moment, get like radiating pains from my inner elbow down to my wrist, certain movements aggregate it, but not enough to rest I don't believe.

I have two screws in my knee from surgery. Bike riding accident years ago.

It doesn't bother me much when lifting, but after squats I have to be careful not to pivot on that leg. I've hurt myself a couple times that way. Sort of twists the joint and I get a sharp pain.

Several bulged discs, spinal stenosis, arthritis in my legs/spine/hands, calcium deposits in my spine, nasty APT and heart palpitations sometimes.

My body is dying, may as well have fun with it.

Funny thing is, lifting has helped all of those issues feel better.
Strangely enough, none of them were brought about by lifting

I will not be a slave to this pile of flesh, my power of will goes far beyond my physical being.
My body does what I tell it to, not the other way 'round.

I broke my left collarbone in half in a motorcycle accident and its healed slightly misaligned. when I do incline bench, it rubs and clicks a bit.

I've broken a lot of bones from palying various sports when I was younger so I get a occasional aches.

Joint wise, I have a separated AC joint that only bothers me when doing EZ bar skullcrushers (so I don't do them). I developed tennis/golfers elbow when I picked up golfing a couple of years ago, but that's nearly unnoticable now. I also jacked my writs up from playing golf, by hacking at the grass too much, but I have been wearing writst straps (when doing chest/shoulders/biceps) and they're feeling about 90%. My rotator cuffs also nag me sometimes because I sleep on my stomach and occastionally wake up with my shoulders hyperextended and my hands numb. <---I should probably look into that.

I think what you have is golfer's elbow, I have it as well.
Overhead tricep work sets it off for me. I can only really do kickbacks, chair dips and CGBP without elbow pain. Working on some corrective therapy.

I have a **** ton of issues because I basically nearly died of malnutrition at one point from my digestive condition and had to rebuild everything from the ground up. There's no feeling like trying to run, and instead your body walks because you don't have the physical strength to push your body at a run.

I've been fighting off knee pain, it comes and goes, at first I think it was a strength / imbalance issue but now I think I need to stretch it out some, my quads are really tight. It only occurs during BGSS now, never did during deadlifts but some squatting motions would trigger it, but mostly I would get it from stairs. I still get it going up stairs but not down.

I occasionally get tennis elbow too from pressing motions when I am close to 5rm.

My elbow will lock up on me during curls if I have complete supination of my hand during the bottom 30 degrees of the lift, I usually don't go full ROM or I twist to a hammer curl at the bottom.

I get pain in my right hip when doing leg raises, I think this is a hip flexor issue and need to stretch it more often.

That said I've corrected lower back pain and have significantly reduced my APT and upper cross syndrome, and I used to get pain in my shoulder and be incapable of lateral raises and most anterior delt exercises but have improved that greatly. I'm not a total mess...
