A semi re-injury

ad

I have tears in both sides of pecs, that happened a while ago (right side a year ago, left side about 9 months)

Recently I went a little heavier than usually 365 for 6 on bench.
and both sides are quite sore and I can feel that deep tissue pain.
What peptides would help me heal this? or should I run hgh at 4 iu a day?

thanks for all your help, I will use a weight that I can perform for 10+ reps on machines only and take a month off from chest exercises first.

I was putting that kind of weight up on bench too did the same thing. I switched over to hammer and I feel alot better. But it feels so much better when you can throw 3 to 4 plates on each side and lift that shit raw.

As my Nordic friend (Viking) said and a brother of steel whom has 1.Ruptured Bicep 2.Ruptured tricep and both ruptured patellas and has been at this for 20+ Years, all the HGH, Gear and Peps ain't gonna do shit. The ONLY thing that will heal is refraining from Chest movements. If you want to see what smart training may do for you check this out.

WTF.. more gear! NAH.. You need rest and recoop with a diet rich in hi-pro my man.

Leave the gym alone for a while.. it will pay you back TEN FOLD! instead of pressing on and wrecking yourself for the rest of your life.

If you want any longevity to your lifting carreer and still want to be in some sort of shape whe you get to my age i suggest you seriously take my advice here ok.

yeah I believe the high protein will heal it, how long should I take off? a month or two?
From now on I will train with only hammer strength presses... what is your take on this?

I would leave the pecs alone until completely healed brother... when i say "take time off" i dont mean quit training all together i mean train around the pecs best you can.. they will get stimuli from working shoulders and flex when working other parts but wont be being streched and contracted as hard as if you were hitting them directly,heal them up then start to work them light with full range movements being sure to fully warm and stretch them before showing them any signs of major weight again... with pec tears the problem is that once you have them you will have to be so careful forever after has this is now going to be a weak point forever.

Extreme warm ups and implicit form is the way forwards when fully healed or you risk the chance of popping them at any given time.

Rest and only rest. Chance it and rip both and you will regret it.
