List your current training injuries

[240 is Back]

What training related ailments do you currently face?  How are you treating them?  Were they just a result of long-term use, or did you do something stupid/regrettable in the gym?

[leadhead]

reoccuring back and neck pain but nothing real severe. I use to break my form while trying to get one more rep during deads while bodybuilding and powerllifting. Lateral epicondylitis AKA tennis elbow from heavy pressing combined with archery shooting. I won't even start with my knees (not all from lifting though). Extensive warmup for upper/lower body and no heavy weight squats seems to work for me.

i am currently nursing an injured right elbow......for that I use Tiger Balm.....seems to work.....for now anyway!

[Stark]

None - never had any injuries since I started training with my head and not my ego

[FREAKgeek]

Running fucked up my knees. I am treating it by not running and it worked.   I can get under a squat bar with as much weight as possible with no knee problems, but run a few miles and they start to go to shit again.

[ricorico]

Strained my lower back few weeks ago.
Usually squat ass to grass, but to get by, i've stuck a seat under my ass and have found no issues there
Left out deads until this morning, and fookin' strained the thing again!!!  

Was digging the garden at the weekend, so reckon that set me up for a fall

[YngiweRhoads]

Currently no injuries. I intend on keeping it that way too.

Severe right extensor pull (brevis) from tire flipping about a month ago. Having a hard time curling a 25lb dumbell. Turned it once, on the second turn felt a "pop" and that was the end of that. But I did manage to flip that big bastard twice

[johnnynoname]

bad right knee from taking bumps in a ring
a bit of cauliflower ear (it's not of "Ishida" or "Sakuraba" proportions but still I got alittle bit of it)

. Do you still workout big guy?

[saopl]

chronic lower back pain from a few car accidents, and right shoulder from crashing my bike going 110. neither of them really act up except when i do deadlifts 

[Tapeworm]

Always a danger of shoulder problems but haven't faced them seriously for over a year.  Came from swimming when I was young and possibly a genetic disposition.  If I feel a problem starting I just don't lift at all for a week or two, go light on returning, and avoid overhead and incline bench.  Also do rotator cuff work and stretching, but not as often as I ought to.

Recently started with semi-low bar squats and really felt it in the lower back but it was a good ache.  Only doing them once a week tho.

absolutely "little fella"

[Buffgeek]

Partially Torn Labrum and Rotator Cuff.  I injured myself about 6 years ago doing seated military press behind the head..

Normally I would clean from the ground and had done them for over 14 years with no injury, but I had just moved up to 255 and started to lose the weight after the first few reps then heard a tear.

I haven't been able to lift very heavy since. The injury is borderline for surgery. If I attempt to train heavy, it get painful quick, but I have learned to avoid certain exercises like front raises and have learned how to position the bar on benches so that I have been able to get some strength back.

I can do militaries with dumbells at a slight incline as well without pain as long as the movement is very controlled.

Overall the injury sucks but it has forced me to really examine every movement I use and I have seen some good results.

[James Blunt]

Total lack of injuries! I'm more of a high repper though. I don't remember the last time I tried to max out on anyhting or even go under 3 reps.

[Voice of Doom]

Right elbow hurts on 'locked in' tricep movements, right wrist has a strained tendon that collapsed on me doing lateral raises last year...heard a pop and the weight just fell from my hand , mid back injury doing seated barbell raises w/out spotter and now that injury keeps me from bringing heavy weight over my chest like cleans, shrugs, raises, etc.  Lower back has been aching recently and I think it's caused by compensating for the middle back injury...sigh...I can DL but back gives out on t-rows.  I think the message here is DONT F*"CK WITH YOUR BACK!

Ironically, it gets worse if I don't go to the gym 3/4 times a week to keep it loose and stretched It appears that I will have to lift weights until I die, lol.

Shoulders and legs are rock solid though!
