Have you ever had a lifting injury?
Yes
What type of injury was it? How long were you injured? How did you recover?
smashed a finger on a weight got a subungual hematoma. killed a nail. took a few months to grow back. i finished my workout that day and went back the next day. used nsaids for pain and anti-inflammatory properties, wrapped a bandaid around the fingertip so the nail wouldnt catch and rip off before it was ready.
i also developed a problem with tendonitis. i tried wrapping my forearm, working through the pain, taking nsaids, a few things. i found a roll on joint support thing that really numbed and helped the pain. while doing all this i was narrowing down what it was in my workout plan that was causing the problem, i found it was upright rows and since they, while a useful part of my shoulder workout, were not a necessary part, i removed them and my problem went away.smashed a finger on a weight got a subungual hematoma. killed a nail. took a few months to grow back. i finished my workout that day and went back the next day. used nsaids for pain and anti-infla...more
