    What happen was i got a very intense pumb do to a number of factors, inlcuding large volume of sets, slin and site injection, but that was not the problem, everything was going great untill i stretched my arms out, i woke up the next morning and everything was very, very tight, so i thought i would stretch it out and as i did, i felt a little tear here and there by the night time it started turning purple, by next morning it was all black and blue, the pics here are 3 days after it happened, it was a bit worst a day or so before i had a chance to take some pics...moral of the story i don't stretch hard, not my bis anyway...XXL

    Hey XXL,

    Didn't know that happened to you! Good thing you recovered quickly. I hear you about the superman comment. After having back surgery I will never go for ultra heavy set and ignore danger signs.

    Wow so sorry it had to happen to a dedicated bro like you.
    Just wondering, did you see a doc that day, if so, what came of that?

    And I hear yall on the superman deal... Best to start being careful before the injuries pile up.

    Best regards
    Gene

    Woooah ! This looks scary !
    What happened with the torn muscle tissue ? Did it heal or did you have a surgery ? A friend of mine has a torn muscle-fibre and he has a gap in his bis now....

    Ouch. That looks like it hurt. I always warm up before stretching hard, actually, I even warm up before lifting.
    One today is worth two tomorrows.

    Holy Crap

    That looked so freakin painful. I'm hoping you sedated yourself with many beers those first two weeks.

    Good job on the quick recovery. I don't know if I would have had the gonads to stick it out and recover in such a short time.
