Triceps tears
« on: December 01, 2023, 11:44:09 PM »
A sports medicine physician/ortho told me that when dealing with triceps tears surgery is only needed for the distal tears (near elbow) and never for the proximal ones (mid way up or near armpit).
Any experience with this? Any professionals/patients with insight?

It is not that I doubt him. Guy repairs athletes for a living. Just looking to learn.

You mean he's right about only distal (elbow) tears requiring surgery, not the ones further up?

Sorry if this is a stupid question but how does the body "know" how to heal it up? If fibres were torn to some extent.

It depends on what is torn muscle or tendons a torn muscle belly is like hamburger meat and can not be sewn back together. A torn or detached tendon can be reattached. I have a torn muscle belly in my pec the tendon is intact as such there is nothing, they can do for it. When I sheared my right triceps tendon off the bone, they reattached it at the elbow.

You have to be over the classic limit for your height to call yourself a bodybuilder. You competed 30lbs below that limit you have never been a bodybuilder

Doesn`t matter you know jsackshit....you`d never beat me.....I simply wouldn`t allow you  to  do  so.

I showed you pics of me beating guys bigger and better than you that would have crushed you.......photograthical proof.......what more do you need besides a new pair of glasses?


I`d hit three poses and you`d be sweeping up the stage after the contest.

GO GET YOUR SHINEBOX BROOM BITCH !  ;D

Good one!!  ;D

I`m gonna abuse him today since if he goes to Vegas after all that shit he talked, he may never be seen again........I don`t want to blow the opportunity while he`s still above ground.

There`s a lot of holes in the Las Vegas Nevada desert......ask Joe Pesci !!  :D

I love those with a DB or a curling bar.....I go  all the way down with the curling bar with pretty decent weight (for me) until the bar touches my traps.........never had a problem........knock on wood.

I had a very slight tear once (20 yrs ago or so) in a tricep muscle (fibers) where it turned black/blue. (Helping someone move)
Doc looked and said it would heal on its own, and it did. It was in the middle of the muscle, and nowhere near a tendon/attachment.
Been fine ever since.

I don`t know about you  GR,but I`m assuming since you are certainly no dummy,that as you have gotten older that you more than likely do many or at least much more warm up sets than you did when you were younger.

It helps bigtime......I still go as heavy as I can for the reps I`m gunning for,but I make damn sure I do plenty of specific warm up sets first.

BYW,you are looking great brother......NO HOMO.  ;)

Jack,you need new material or just to off yourself,

You aren`t funny, and just make yourself look dumber than you probably actually are.

I feel sorry for you.........NOT !!!!!!

BTW,I`ll show a current pic with a "full belly",if you show me one of you first.........I`ll wait,but hurry cuz I`m not getting any younger,just better looking by the hour.
