Forum: Injury Recovery And Prevention

A couple days ago I made the mistake of not stretching and hurt my left knee for the first time doing a barbell squat (it may have also been caused due to improper form). How long should I wait until I start doing barbell squats, I only have slight pain when I squat down and it’s not swollen but it...

I sprained my wrist a few weeks taking a fall as I was hiking (landed on some rocks). Unfortunately my wrist was sprained and ankle was a bit roughed up but that is much better. I've mostly been doing cardio since my wrist is in pain. Its been about 3 weeks. Any tips of how long I should wait for...

Hello everyone! English is not my native language, so, sorry for the mistakes i will make. I´m here to tell you about my painful experience of having a bone spur on my neck, and with the hope i can give some advice and also some hope in the end of the tunnel. I had a motorcycle accident...

Guys this **** is so depressing, i've tried every exercise on the internet and nothing seems to be helping. My physio corrected my neck pain and posture, but the winging is still there and I really don't know what to do. I've lost all mind muscle connection on the right side of my whole body,...

I have so much pain and mechanical dysfunction with my body that is ruining any joy in my life. 90% of my time daily is spent in anger caused by the different associated discomfort or pain I feel; the other 10% which relief is provided is during the rehabilitation exercises I perform. I've seen...

So im only 15 , and I go to the gym almost everyday , except sunday because too many people. And today i was doing dumbell press with 22kg like 10reps. It was at the end of my session , I was in there for like 2hours and I was thinking going home after this set. I got 24kg and I was aiming for at...

I've started weightlifting after years of absence and I notice when I lift my dumbbells the following day my wrists are in quite a bit of pain. I usually do about 15-20 reps with my dumbbells, so they can't be too heavy. I'll take a 2 day rest to wait for my wrists to fully recover but even that...

So about 3 weeks ago I went through the painful experience of having an Anterior Shoulder Dislocation during a ski accident. After about 3 hours the shoulder was popped back into place. I wore a sling for about a week and now have just been taking it easy on it for the last 2 weeks. It feels pretty...

What exercises are still safe to perform? My PT told me to continue doing light horizontal presses with low volume, but nothing above my head. Lateral raises and vertical pulls are also out. I can still do the bench press with decent weight, but can't manage to do two pushups before my shoulder...

Hi everyone, So the other day I did a push workout, but did it properly and got a pump- which I've never done before in my life. I have a super weak upper body to the point of neck problems, just so you have an idea of just how unused the muscles in that area are. After getting a good pump...

Kinda strained my rhomboid 3 days ago as a result of standing for 5 hours with really bad posture. Couldn't find anything on whether or not I should lighten certain workouts. See, it's not like a bad muscle tear but more like a knot that won't go away so I'm not really taking care of it, was gonna...

This has probably been addressed somewhere along the way but my problem is I guess a little unique. I lost a ton of weight with bypass surgery. A lot came off the back side leaving me with no butt. I have joined a high intensity cardio workout studio to help reshape my body and get my belly and...

Hey guys, Sorry if this is beaten to death, but does anyone have any resources/links to useful stretching routines or related info? I've always been an athlete through schooling and, now that I'm out, I wanted to look more into stretching and active recovery and how that affects weight...

I dont know if I'm tensing the back of my neck or shoulders.. But when I do certain exercises like barbel curls or military press.. Or cable chest flys ect I sometimes get a tension like feeling in the back of my neck. Im not sure if its because I'm stiffening my neck or something is off with my...

I was doing Deadlift over/under(left hand). Bad forms, didn't lockout elbow, probably injured left elbow this way. I didn't feel anything at the time though. To make things worse, I did bunch of weighted chin ups (not wide grip) right after. Both left/right were sore but no major pain or anything. ...
