After years and years of hardcore sports and insanely crazy physical things....

i finally met my 2nd injury

I was really pumped this morning so when i grabbed my 20 lb backpack to leave my class....i grabbed it as fast as i could and SOME HOW...i tore something in my arm. My body started walking to the door before my arm even flex to carry that weight. I have no idea how it happened to be honest.

Now i can't even fucking bend it without wanting to scream.

3 years of basketball and football in high school, and 4 years of bjj....no injuries

On top of a lifetime of winter snowboarding and summer skating and jumping off buildings and filming it.


My friend stepped off a curb in the dark without knowing it was there and he tore his ACL last week.

Such nonsense. Anyone here tear/break anything from something dumb like this?

I can only move my arm about 30 degrees before it sticks and doesn't want to move. Hurts too much to really move so i lost all my range of movement in that joint

Before I started weight training I used to randomly pull something in my back just randomly lifting stuff - eg moving bike, moving mini fridge, reaching for stuff.

I think compound movements and stretching is key to reducing risk of random injuries.

Broke my ankle, tore all the ligaments, and have bone bruising/bleeding.. a month ago.. Teaching kids how to play ultimate Frisbee.

I've played competitive ultimate twice a week for years, and my first injury is while teaching 7th-12th graders how to play. Sigh..

I did this may long. Basically fell over on a dirtbike... so stupid. Only thing is it'll probbaly never be 100% or even all that close ever again. It's pretty fucked. They won't do surgery on it because it wasn't a proximal or distal tendon tear/avulsion. I tore all 3 hamstring muscles right in the belly of the muscle. None were complete tears. The semimembranosus took the brunt of it. Hammy is weak as a kitten right now. And I'm a runner and been an athlete all my life. I can't even jog 200m without my hamstring fatiguing so badly I have to stop and walk

fuck...that sucks :S

im better at rs than you

Broken wrist many times..

Went down some stairs on my stomach on a bosu ball and ate shit

Snowboarding, didn't even know it was broken kept on snowboarding, scans next day

Fell back after hanging off rim playing basketball

Rugby, didn't even know it was broken n kept on playing, scans next day

Fighting my brother, but that was my knuckles and bones in my hand
