I haven't had as catastrophic injuries as above but I've had many, many tears and none of them hurt at all, initially at least. People always told me, "that must've hurt!" Anyone here have tears and have an opinion on the pain?
Maybe a year ago I did a fairly easy set of horizontal machine leg presses, like at least 5 reps from failure. I had knee wraps on and immediately after the set after releasing the wraps I experienced some of the worst pain of my life. I don't know wtf happened but I was writhing in pain on the floor for like ten minutes seriously panicking, like get me to the ER, my quads hurt so bad :D

That photographer was the problem for Fux and his unquestioning obedience.

Never saw this compilation before. Horrifying!

But doing squats in the rack while removing the pins is retarded as well. If Fux fell forward instead it might have been even worse :D
Chris Lund didn't want to use fake plates, it had to be and look authentic. Respect :D

I have never been daft enough to lift excessively heavy
Its not required for muscle volume

I saw the footage of Fux a week or two, prior to the accident, squatting 700lbs for reps. It looked fairly easy too. No spotter. But I didn’t notice if Fux had the safety pins in place. I didn’t know to look for the pins because it was before the infamous photo-shoot took place. I just assumed the the safeties were in place.

True, with PEDs and great genetics you could build a very impressive physique doing just bodyweight exercises. Though somehow for example all the pros seem to lift "very heavy weights" at least some of the time. Even Paul Dillet did some really heavy lifting. I asked google LOL

There is no way that Dillet was doing behind the neck press with 305LB

He was probably extra vulnerable due to being near contest shape. Dorian said it was a big mistake going really heavy in the last part of contest prep, as you are really vulnerable plus you are only trying to maintain size anyway. I do think "heavy" loading with high tension is important in prep to best maintain muscle but you have to consider the exercise as well, some are more dangerous than others. In the past especially many switched to pumping and exclusively high reps in prep.

I don't know but there's no doubt he was strong. All big guys are strong whether they demonstrate it or not, there's a direct correlation :D

Yes Dillet was strong. I knew some people who witnessed him training heavy. But they never mentioned behind the neck press with over 300LBS

;D ;D ;D ;D great show.

I'm pretty much an expert on pain. kidney stone attacks 3 different times, broken tibia from football. broken jaw boxing, torn rotator cuff fight with a flat tire. open heart surgery, 7 hip replacements, several concussions, several ruptured discs in back, got a large nail through my hand, dislocated shoulder, pulmonary embolism and tons of minor shit... the closest I came to death so far was when my appendix burst waiting to get operated on. I was hoping for relief or a quick death. you just got to grin and bear it. ;D ;D ;D ;D

Crazy, funk!

No respect for him he didnt give a shit about the "athletes" he photographed and poor Fux was willing to do whatever his master told him. Fux told me Irvin Gelb would tell me to come back next week because he saw some hair still on my triceps when I met him at a diner after competing in the juniors at Musclemania Worlds in Vegas. I met Irvin the year before and he was a complete asshole. The photographers had alot of sway back then.

he would have bitten through his towel...
He just did pump workouts, they are available to watch
Most of the pros today dont lift particularly heavy in relation to their size

That's a lot of pain. I hear kidney stones is one of the worst. I know the desperate feeling of wanting quick relief. In recent times I've cried like a bitch at the ER several times begging for help, just couldn't help it LOL. A few times morphine based pain killers didn't even help so they added ketamine too, then epidural. Epidural was great, I cried after I got relief LOL. A few times I asked them to just kill me. My first pancreatitis attack I was screaming for help for like an hour in my apartment before ambulance arrived, a Somali woman came knocking on my door asking what was wrong :D

The photographers are fags.
