so i was thinking of recording my workout today, since i do that now and again. well it was pull day, and i was going for a 1RM beltless on a platform.
i get up to 405 (which is about a 5RM if you've ready my journal), and fell victim to the old "treat warmups like max weights" issue, because I wasn't really thinking. i just grabbed the bar and went for it.
well wouldn't ya know it, the weight flies up, and just over my knees, disaster. i tip over forwards, ALL my weight goes on my toes, and my lower back completely collapses.
years of training to avoid saying average curse words when angry or surprised paid off, as suddenly in the middle of the weight room i yell out "BALLSACK!!!!" at the top of my lungs and drop the bar, going over to lay on a bench.
as it turns out, a guy yelling "ballsack" in the middle of the gym is cause for concern. fortunately there were few people there, but i've a feeling that one's gonna haunt me for a while.
now i'm on a recliner with a few 400mg ibuprofen tabs in me fresh out of a blazing hot bathtub. i'm pretty sure it's just a muscle strain but damn it hurts like crazy.
