Forum: Injury Recovery And Prevention

Merry Christmas all! Was wondering if anyone has dealt with severe pinched nerves in the traps-neck. I went to a orthopedic Dr and ruled out bulging discs in the neck or bone spurs etc... there’s no issues with my shoulder rotator either. He referred me to a physical therapist which I have...

Could anyone advise what I can do with my right shoulder? It weirdly shaped as compared to my left shoulders. Chest as well..

Ever since I've started strong lift 5x5 a few months ago my left wrist hurts on bench and barbell rows. The pain is only the left wrist, my right has no pain. It starts to hurt only when l go over 35kg for bench and 50kg for barbell rows. I have no pain in my wrist when going about my day to day...

When I squat down I get clicking behind my knees. Or it kinda feels like the tendon on the backside (outer edge) of my knee is being plucked. It doesn't hurt per se but it feels odd and it kinda throws off my form as it's distracting. I can't quite squat down to parallel as I'm recovering from...

I was doing a leg press and I felt a sharp pain in my upper right abdominal and rib, the next day I could hardly get out of bed, my right side hurts when I breath, but nothing is broken, I think I strained my rib or abdominal. Has anybody ever have the same experience, it hurts like hell. You...

There is a lot available on youtube and in internet forums like bb.com, but not so much specific to...

So in September I had a night panic attack, knocked me for 6 and sent me down a dark road with general anxiety and fear. I lost interest in anything including the gym so gave it up. Prior to that I had been working out 4-5 days per week for the past 4 years. Looking back I had been over doing...

What is happening with my inner elbow area by the bicep (cubital fossa) when I do cross-body hammer curls? Whenever I get a pump, and I extend the dumbbell when lowering across the torso, I feel (and see) something moving around the bicep tendon in the elbow crease. It feels like something is...

I took a year long break from working out, and now that I am back to it, my back and groin area get sore when I try to do abs. I can’t even feel anything at in my abs when I try to work them. Any tips? Thanks-Henry

This has got me scratching my head. Background - I've been doing keto (and please - I'm not interested in anyone's criticism of keto - it's my choice, I have a specific question) for half a year now. Dropped from 198 lbs. to 158 lbs. Getting leaner (maybe 13% BF down from 23%) and putting on some...

Hello. Does anyone have some knowledge how to train while having those two syndromes? Is full body workout with adding some corrective exercises good way and it will be fixed over time or better to first focus to correct these two syndromes and then start lifting again?

Hi,im 29 years old guy, last week I was working out with triceps pressdown with 36kg, ive been hitting the gym for 3 month in order to lose fat because im overweight guy. When I pushed it down after a few reps i felt a very sharp pain on my chest, my both shoulders were hurting like there is no...

I am 44 yo Due to heave lifting I got Supraspinatus tendon tear in my right shoulder. I stopped training for around 8 months and started to get in bad shape which i dont want. I wonder if there is a training program that I can build my other muscles such as biceps, triceps, arms, chest,...

Hey everyone. Quick question. Lately I've been having knee pain NOT in both knees, but in my right knee. It only hurts if I extend my leg and flex it. My knees don't hurt during squats, so I'm supposing it's the leg extensions...I did a few searches before asking this question, and none of them...

Wanted to do a write up on my experience with a labrum/SLAP tear since reading threads on BB helped me a lot as I was researching and trying to learn more. This is a long write up, but I want to be thorough. I know for me it really helped to read about others experiences, so I wanted to provide...
