Was playing tackle rugby, and got absolutely floored by a guy that used to play for the U19 Belgium national team, he took my legs tossed me around like a rag doll then slammed me into the floor with his shoulder, winded for atleast 5 mins, that was on Saturday it still hurts to breathe, especially when I cough/laugh. Went for an X-ray and nothing showed up (no collapsed lung/rib fracture) so doc thinks it's a soft tissue tear. No more chest/back workouts for me, I can do a few arm exercises and leg curl/extensions. So I guess next few weeks work on turning my spaghetti arms into fettucini arms, and hopefully grow my baby quads.

Also why the Fuk are my abs so sore since that tackle??

And for arms 3x a week is 40 sets/day excessive as long as I only do rape 8-9?

If your goals are bodybuilding goals 3 x 40 reps/wk is probably pretty decent: just look at gv and you wills ee you're not overdoing it. It depends on load, intensity, tension over time, etc though -- and more importantly your end goals.

On the rugby hit: sorry about that m8. I played rugby for the 2nd best university team in my country, and even by 15 I was asked to play nationally for Canada, when it was ranked #15 in the world. It's a tough sport, and your injury is quite possibly more about how you took the hit than how it was delivered (aspects of the same thing), or it was a "lucky" hit. I hospitalized guys on pretty much a weekly basis for a few years. Folks who don't play it at a high level have no understanding of the type of impact it involves.

My suggestion would be to avoid playing with U19 Belgians until you have a fair bit of XP. Just in case. I played with some pros and tons of young bucks from England, Ireland etc (top guys) and I know the feels you have right now ;) No equipment, low XP = recipe for disaster.

Why do people think it's a good idea to play rugby?
