Headache following heavy Squatting session now re-occurs each time I train!?
Hi there.
I trained legs heavy just over a week ago with Squats & Leg Presses, and I think I was holding my breath for the last couple of reps of each set, particularly the last and hardest sets of each, which were to failure. Anyway, pretty soon after I was feeling a little dizzy and a dull headache developed, located right at the back of my head, the top of my neck. I'm pretty sure bar placement and general form was good, so that's what left me thinking it was the holding of my breath (I.e. pressure buildup), that may have caused the initial headache.
Anyway, I've done two more body-part sessions since, Chest last tues and Back on thurs , and as soon as I begun the 1st heavy set of each sesh the dull headache returns and persists for the duration of the workout, so whatever went wrong has not quite come right. I've had a few days off now....
Has anyone had similar experience or know what I've done exactly? Any advices appreciated!
Cheers y'all!
