Wrecked my back
February 8th, 2007
Working out tonight. Went in this morning, did my squats but had to quit after about 4 sets from a cough that was hurting and making it impossible to workout. Went in tonight, back was a bit sore from the squats and the cough remained. Dummy me decided to continue my workout, next thing on my list after squats is dead lifts. I did a warm up set of 225 pounds x 10, went to my next set of 315 on rep 7 something just tore, extremely bad. I was able to put my bar back and the weights, barely made it down to the locker room. Got dressed as well as I could but could not tie my shoes.
I extremely messed my backup, I’m afraid this is not simple sprain ![]()

ouch! I think I did that something like that in the gym the other week and couldn’t tie shoelaces or pick things up from the floor. I had to rest it for a few days.
You need a good massage. -calling backup-
I hope you feel better soon Grim

Don’t worry Grim. You’re in good company:
I think I remember reading somewhere that Bruce Lee knackered his back doing deadlifts with too much weight, and then just used lighter weights after the accident.
