    close call last night, near injury-lesson learned

    all i have to say is i was very scared last night. i havent done crossbench dumbell pullovers in a long time and started them back into my lifting on back and delts day. i just came back from the flu and felt great so i pushed it. i dont know about you guys but when i am forced to take time off i come back a little weaker than i was at my peak on previous cycle. anyways when doing my heavier set after pyramiding up with pullovers i made a mistake by over stretching and goin a little to heavy. to make a long story short in the bottom stretch my right delt popped out of socket. i powered thru it and got it over and it popped back in. obviously it only popped out a little or i would have been in big trouble. this never happened to me before and it is a little uncomfortable today but not painful. looks like i will be ok but man i seen my lifting future flashin before my eyes and probly would have had to go to the emergency room. i was able to finish my workout so it wasnt bad just made me realise i need to ease into it the 1st time reincorporating a exercise into my lifting or when its a new one and never ever over exaggerate the stretch especially with heavier weights.
    i should have known better as i did this before with calf raises on a high board in the smith machine with heavy weight and tore my achilies tendon under the heel years ago. Close call this time. i vowed to never over stretch again and i guess i slipped up. wont happen again and maybe somebody here can learn from this story as well. not all of our bodies are built the same and can handle this extreme stretching under heavy stress.

    Yeh man, getting back into lifting is hard, it's hard to be humble with the weight especially when your ego is constantly challenging you, but always better safe than sorry!

    it feels ok today. i was worried it would stress my rotators since i have a bad one in that shoulder. just gotta keep doing my rotator cuff exercises. sometimes i neglect them and have to make myself do it.
