Damaged My Right Pec Badly. Visually Distorted.
Posted: 01-10-05 14:18pm

Last night, I was doing a few cool down reps on the smith machine (bench press on rails so you cant drop the weights). I was only doing 90lbs + the bar, so it was about 110lbs. 110 is no problem for me, I can do about double that without straining, so I was definately not pushing myself hard. I went too far down with the bar, it was just about touching my chest and when I went to raise the bar, my chest started hurting. I got up and looked at it in the mirror, and while flexing, a massive section of my right pec was shifted over towards my arm pit. It looked like someone implanted a tangerine under my skin just near my shoulder and pits, and it looked like a chunk was missing from around my sternum. About 1/3 of my pec was disfigured. It didnt even hurt, it just felt like I was getting a good workout. I doesnt add up, it does not hurt, but it was visually disfigured, so I know something ripped. I think a tendon might have seperated from the sternum but i'd think it would hurt, wouldnt it? This couldnt have happened at a worse time, my health insurance was just dropped. Please post up your opinions and questions. Thank you.
