Rotator cuff injury and here is why: the only thing that all torso exercises, be it back, pec, delt or arm movements have in common is that they all involve the rotator cuff joint to one degree or another. Even triceps exercises, like French presses and triceps pulldowns, require you to strain your rotator cuff joint by keeping it steady. It is impossible to perform any upper boy exercise except for barbell curls without the involvement of the rotator cuff joint and the middle deltoid head that is the primary muscle involved in moving it. If you tear your quad, the second largest muscle in the body besides the buttocks, you can still work your calves and himstrings and all your upper body. If you tear your latissimus, you can still work your mid and lower back as well as your lower body. Both the latissiums and quadriceps are much larger muscles than the delt muscles involved in moving the rotator cuff joint, and yet tearing the latter has far more devastating consequences for bodybuilding.
If you tear your rotator cuff joint, your bodybuilding is over forever. You won't be able to perform any upper body exercise, and it never heals 100% again. Recovery takes 6 months to a year, and you will lose 50% of your upper body strength forever. You will only be able to bench, military press and barbell row 50% of the weight you once could. It is the end.
So make sure to strengthen your rotator cuff. The best way to do this is with isometric lateral raises. Grab heavy dumbbells and perform lateral raises, but hold the weight for 10 seconds when your arms are at a 90 degree angle from the floor. Then increase to 15 seconds and so on until you can hold it for 30 seconds. After that, increase the weight and rpeat the preocess so on and so forth.

SMM on his date with women, of which he has one about every decade, bombards his helpless companion with an endless infodump on topics like nutrition, biomechanics, lifting technique, MMA and gorillas. The women, naturally, never call back after that first memorable evening with him and SMM is left wondering if maybe he is somehow, not smart enough, and goes off to read another fifty articles on de novo gluconeogenesis.
I don't go on dates. I don't need to. Every time I want to slam dunk my gizz on some c.unt, I call escorts who are lingerie models in their spare time and cost up to 3 grand a night, which is pocket change to me(it truly is...). Or I just call Fat Dave's mom, who puts out to any dick willing to have her. One of the two.

Precisely bro, you've never had sex that you didn't pay for. Those prostitutes you claim you shagged- they were revolted by you, were probably thinking of their boyfriends to get through the session. You'll never know how it feels to have a woman willingly hand over the holiest of holies to you :)
Dave, for all his faults, got a woman to love him enough to marry him. This is something you won't experience for many, many years to come, if indeed you ever do.
Given your lack of social skills, your almost complete lack of humour, and your intense interests in certain areas, I'd say you have very strong autistic traits, perhpas you're an aspie?
oh and that pocket change comment, let's just add that to the list of claims below, shall we? ;D
I understand...so you're Fat Dave's bitch in this board. I hope you understand that he got fucked in the ass by a homosexual, which makes you even more pathetic for being his bitch. You are pathetic, dude.
And you are a noob, a nobody compared to me in this board. Who are you? Nobody. I am a Getbig institution and I have been a member of this board for almost 8 years. I think you should know your place and STFU.

What about a spinal cord lesion to the cervical region of the spine within C1-C7, due to extremely heavy squatting, that leads to permanent quadriplegia?
Wouldn't that be the most devastating bodybuilding injury, since you will forever be sentenced to life in a wheelchair?

LOL, as an autistic person, you're not even properly human, certainly not human in any conventional sense acceptable to any other person
I wonder how much this inhumanity of those affects the persons around you... of which I'm sure there aren't many ;)
Autistic people lack language, you moron. I am far too loquacious and eloquent to be autistic. But then, what do you know? Nothing. I would rather be autistic than dumb as a box of rocks like you. At least autistic people can compose beautiful music, become great mathematicians and show great scientific intuition. You will never make any contributions to the World because you are dumb as fuck. You will forever be a prole, my friend.
And autistics are far more human than you. Many of the greatest men of science and artists had autistic traits and I regard them as far more human than you. They were:^
1. More intelligent than you.
2. Capable of more conscientiousness than you.
I regard both as characteristics that only humans have that distinguish humans from animals, and they had more of it then you.
But you are right that I am not human: I am super-human since I had synthetic genes implanted on my DNA as an adolescent which makes me incredibly strong, atheltic and with a great immune system. I am resitent to over 300 strains of rabies, influenza, toxicoplasmosis and typhus.

I deleted the first half of your post bc it was like watching paint dry. A lateral raise doesn't strengthen the rotator cuff it will actually give you more upper trap stimulus thus causing anterior tilt of the scap, and I'm sure you know when the scapula is anteriorally tilted it will cause the humerus to glide into the acromium> As far as rotator cuff what MUSCLE of the 4 are you trying to strengthen? Infraspinatus and teres minor - sidelying external rotation or prone external rotation will work best as emg studies are highest. Subscap? Prone extension and depression.. I could go on and say that most people need more work than just rotator cuff work because all shoulder dysfunction is caused by scapular dysfunction... Eric Cressey has written vigorously on this as well as a slew of other coaches and PT's.

The lungs work to suck air in by creating a difference in pressure due to vacuum. If you perforate one of your lungs, a vacuum is no longer present and the lungs cannot work. This is obvious. Without Oxygen, you die in minutes. So you are right that you won't die instantly, but for all practical effects it is the same.

Dude, I just knew it. You scream "autistic prick" from the very first few words you write.
Don't delude yourself that knowing a few words such as "loquacious" and "conscientiousness" means anything- autistics parrot such things the same way a parrot will repeat certain sounds. I haven't seen any evidence of loquaciousness in your writings- just the frantic, disjointed drivel of an emotional cripple.
Calling you cripple is actually the wrong term. A cripple was once able to walk. You have NEVER been able to feel. You were born with the condition- you ARE the condition. It's a developmental disorder of the brain, means you've had it ever since you WERE. And you are wrong, writing in that contradictory mess above, that autistics don't have language. Asperger's syndrome cases, like yours, do have language, they just cannot comprehend the awe that language invokes, because that presupposes a healthy amygdala, which, again, is something that was denied you at birth
I pity you man, I shouldn't even be ripping into you the way I am, and I wouldn't, if it wasn't for your autistic obnoxiousness.
I bet Temple Grandin is your heroine, isn't she? :)
You regard intelligence as the only thing that separates man from animal, because you cannot understand what the other thing is. In that state, you are stuck somewhere between human and something else, something alien, what Oliver Sacks called "An anthropologist on Mars". Peoples' behaviour is a perpetual enigma to you and I venture to guess that, given the temper you exhibit here, there have been many instances of you exploding with autistic rage at those around you, totally unable to comprehend them, descending into glossolalia and a host of other hysterics.
In your vast personal ineptitude, which a certain part of you (what you think is the "intelligent part) understands only too well, you've taken on inventing various stories, relentlessly projecting them on people, hoping that somehow this will alleviate the reality of your situation.
You've said it all brother ;D

oh and by the way, I believe it's "toxoplasmosis", rather than toxicoplasmosis.

Your lung do not create the lower pressure you are describing. Also, the injury you describe can take minutes or hours to create any significant morbidity. Mortality can ensue, but it is far from instant or certain. So no, they are not the same.

Sweetheart,
If left for a prolonged period of time, yes you can die from what is known as a tension pneumothorax (very rarely does this ever occur). For the most part and in most situations, what you will develop is a pneumothorax (an accumulation of air between your lung and chest wall) on the side of the affected lung. While dealing with a pneumothorax is no fun for anyone, you can certainly breathe while it's present. What they do for such things depends mainly on the actual size of the pneumothorax, some cases are just kept in observation and resolve, while other cases require the insertion/placement a chest tube onto the affected side, which in turn restores the negative pressure needed for your lung to re-expand.
So, again, it is much more probable that a gym goer will suffer from a complete lesion to the C1-C7 cervical region of the spine, by way of a heavy squatting injury, that causes instant quadriplegia.
I love you sucky,

My rotators are fucked, mainly because when I was younger I went too heavy in an uneducated way - but having said that, I would prefer that to a bicep or a pec tear - a rotator might fuck with you, but it cant be seen, bicep and pec tear are painful and slow to heal, and you are truly never the same again, especially if you did it through negligent or heavy training - it puts a fear in your mind you could do without.

Wow! Where did all the physicians come from?
-
I was expecting the Fux squat.
I still remember the first time I seen that Photo - Career ender right there - this is how far some photographers and BB will go to get the perfect photo - unfortunately for Fux, this wasnt the perfect photo he wanted, but for the photographer Chris Lund, it is a goldmine photo in an alread impressive portfolio of work.
Fux tore All Four Quadricep Muscles In His Left Leg & His Pattella Tendon In His Right Leg.
Fux was rushed to a local hospital and later transferred to Eisenhower Medical Center in Rancho Mirage, near his Palm Springs home, where he underwent four hours of surgery. The doctor's prognosis: The left leg should recover fully, but the news was not so encouraging for his right leg. Once inside, the surgeon also discovered shredded cartilage that had been a scrambled mess for years. "Torn cartilage is normally not such a big deal," the surgeon told Fux, "but in your case, it's a big deal. I've never seen anything so bad in anyone so young. How were you able to walk before the accident?"
"The first nine weeks after the accident," he explains, "I couldn't even do therapy. I had to wait until my legs were fully healed. During that time, they had to be kept completely straight. After all those months on your back, you begin to wonder if you are even mentally--let alone physically--able to come back. You are aware of existing in a world that is diametrically opposite that of bodybuilding. You're totally inactive, so you lose focus. You have a sloppy meal and tell yourself it's OK this time, and that starts the slippery slope into compromise. It also becomes more and more difficult to believe you'll ever again be capable of eating right every day, all day, and training twice a day, even though that's what I love most about bodybuilding: the hard, ruthless, painful discipline. I absolutely love it.
The most depressing moment was my first day back home. I left the therapy center a little too early. When you're there, someone is always around to attend to you 24 hours a day, but back home, you don't even know how to begin to move or get out of the wheelchair. It's difficult to explain everything involved. My bed at home was much lower than the one at the hospital, so, at first, it took me 45 minutes just to lie down. Later, even with practice, it took me 40 minutes to get out of bed, go to the bathroom and go back to bed. I had to swing myself out of bed, put the braces on my legs, make it to the bathroom, going from one piece of furniture to another, then to my suitcase, the wall, the doorknob and whatever I could grab along the way, then reverse the process. When I went to the store, someone would have to take me in my wheelchair. It was all very depressing, and it changed every day. One day you're depressed and think you'll never walk again, but the next day, you notice the slightest hint of progress, maybe being able to bend your leg another degree and you think you're back in the game.
For the whole article: - it is a good read and a warning to every young mans ego in the gym.

Wrong....
Remember this guy...oh, what was his name...ummm.....yeah, Ronald Reagan....bullet lodged in lung. He did not die within minutes. Again, your lungs dont spontaneously move. The act of "breathing" is due to the diaphragm and intercostal muscles. They create a negative pressure thus allowing air into the lungs

"Noting that Mr. Reagan's lung had been reinflated, Dr. O'Leary said that the President ''was never in any serious danger'' since the bullet did not damage the heart. Dr. O'Leary said Mr. Reagan probably would be hospitalized for about two weeks."
Yeah, you're right....he didnt have a lung perforated. ::) Just an FYI...Reagan didn't realize he was shot right away. So, there was more than a few minutes that passed. In fact, it wasnt until nearly an hour after he was shot that he went into surgery.

Hmm....I believe we have two lungs, last I checked....
He didnt have a lung perforated? Odd....did the bullet just kind of snuggle up to the lung tissue?

The lungs are connected. This is why when you breathe, air can go from one lung to another. If you perforate one of the lungs, the entire respiratory sytem collapses. I doubt that Reagan had his lung perforated. This is simply not possible unless he received immediate mechanical breathing. Again: this is simply not possible. I want to know the exact details of this story before I comment further.

Sure you can function with one lung, but the former canal between it and the other lung has to be sutured to create a vaccum. I repeat: a perforated lung cannot create a vacuum for the negative pressure needed to breathe air in.

Well said! About time someone made an intelligent statement about autism, instead of just reading wikipedia and considering themselves an expert! Austistic individuals can be either high functioning or low functioning, and the lower functioning tend to use little verbal communication. High functioning individuals talk continuously, as my brother does. Im not sure where all of you "experts" got your information, but its very clear that none of you have ever spent any time with anyone with asd's.
Back to the point, I tore my rotator cuff at work a year and a half ago, and only now am I lifting the same weight that i was lifting then. It is an awful injury to recover from because it takes an incredible amount of time to mend.

People like Einstein, Twain, Wilde, Shaw, Churchill, Lincoln, & others have their writings so well documented that, for me, it borders on the inconceivable that if this were actually an Einstein quote, why someone would not have come up with a (printed) source a long time ago.
When I find a quote that is fairly famous attributed to a famous person (especially the likes of the ones I mentioned) & cannot find a source, I make every effort to say "attributed."
I do not believe this is an Einstein quote (until I'm proven wrong).
It sounds a bit like:
"The world we've made, as a result of the level of thinking we have done thus far, creates problems we cannot solve at the same level of thinking"
~ Albert Einstein.
http://www.lemberg.com/brekthru.shtml
On that same webpage you will find this remark:
"...as the author Rita Mae Brown wrote, "Insanity is when you keep doing the same things expecting different results".
~ Paul Lemberg
This person claims:
Rita Mae Brown in Rubyfruit Jungle says the definition of insanity is doing the same thing, but expecting a different result.
~ Sandra Ford Walston
http://www.walstoncourage.com/pages/books/chapterten.htm
...in the words of Rita Mae Brown:
Insanity is continuing to do the same thing over & over again, yet expecting different results...
The Internet will provide all kinds of attributions:
"Insanity", said Rudyard Kipling, "is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results".
http://www.canceraction.org.gg/diff.htm
Bottom line for me:
I am leaning heavily toward Rita Mae Brown, for this one, but am still not 100% convinced.

a rib perforating both your lungs is probably going to mean you are dead from whatever crushed you. i mean, really? if you get hit so hard that your entire ribcage gets crushed, at that point it doesn't really matter if your lungs get perforated lol
oh you said one of oyur lungs getting pierced. well in that case no your lungs, plural, don't collapse. why would your other lung collapse? drowning in your own blood is the greatest risk to getting a pierced lung, but if there isn't too much blood you can still breath enough to stay alive.

All generilisations are dangerous, and that retarded cliche about the definition of Insanity is doing the same behaviour and expecting a different result is idiotic- so drilling for oil is crazy, or goldmining is crazy and what about gambling - the same behaviour causes an almost infinite amount of results based on mathematics. Technically, every instance in time is unique, so it is impossible to do anything twice.

You can't be serious with this statement.....you should take a second (with all due respect) to learn the differnce between a type-1 and type-2 AC joint. Look at the research of pressing movements combined with each type of joint. For example, for someone with a type-2 AC, BTN presses are an absolutely NO NO...the impingement that occurs will absolutely lead to a rotator strain/tear/etc etc

yeah i know but, you are talking about genetic structure of the shoulder and not a whole lot can be done with that except surgery. most people are still going to press regardless and, pressing puts a significant strain on the RC, and it's usually the only thing that bottlenecks me when lifting. my pecs and shoulders will recover a lot faster than my RC because i'm hitting my RC multiple times a week, so i wouldn't add anymore RC exercises a week.
i'm pretty sure i'm a type 2 or 3, since my shoulders are always impinged and hurt. i think i inherited it from my dad as he had the same issue and had his long bicep tendon severed due to impingement even though he doesn't lift.

So make sure to strengthen your rotator cuff. The best way to do this is with isometric lateral raises. Grab heavy dumbbells and perform lateral raises, but hold the weight for 10 seconds when your arms are at a 90 degree angle from the floor. Then increase to 15 seconds and so on until you can hold it for 30 seconds. After that, increase the weight and rpeat the preocess so on and so forth.

Rotator cuff injury and here is why: the only thing that all torso exercises, be it back, pec, delt or arm movements have in common is that they all involve the rotator cuff joint to one degree or another. Even triceps exercises, like French presses and triceps pulldowns, require you to strain your rotator cuff joint by keeping it steady. It is impossible to perform any upper boy exercise except for barbell curls without the involvement of the rotator cuff joint and the middle deltoid head that is the primary muscle involved in moving it. If you tear your quad, the second largest muscle in the body besides the buttocks, you can still work your calves and himstrings and all your upper body. If you tear your latissimus, you can still work your mid and lower back as well as your lower body. Both the latissiums and quadriceps are much larger muscles than the delt muscles involved in moving the rotator cuff joint, and yet tearing the latter has far more devastating consequences for bodybuilding.
If you tear your rotator cuff joint, your bodybuilding is over forever. You won't be able to perform any upper body exercise, and it never heals 100% again. Recovery takes 6 months to a year, and you will lose 50% of your upper body strength forever. You will only be able to bench, military press and barbell row 50% of the weight you once could. It is the end.
