torn chest muscle
ad
pretty sure i tore something badly. my entire chest is bruised purple all the way down through my bicep, slightly swollen but this is beginning to go down. doesn't really hurt it's just a little sore in the morning or when i extend my arm over my head. wondering if anyone has had any experience with this and what kind of recovery time am i looking at?

Injuries can be down right depressing. But it's the nature of the game.
Take your time and let it heal completely.
If you're struggling to train at all and you've got a serious injury, for me it's a no brainer, end cycle early and get on PCT. How far through / how much of your cycle left to go? Otherwise you're obviously looking at a lot of legs and abs work (assuming back work is also going to mess with you pec).
yeah i feel you, im fucking pissed because i was just starting to make good gains. im about 5 weeks in. looks like legs, abs, maybe some biceps and a fuckload of cardio for the next few months.
Injuries are a bitch mate, I feel for you. Just be careful not to do anything to damage it further. Best of luck, hope a fast recovery bro
thanks man, i appreciate it. i guess 98% of the time this shit happens its on flat bench. wish i had known that before and stuck with dumbells.
thanks guys, looking like i need to get surgery for sure if i wanna get my full strength back and not end up deformed. any advice on stopping my cycle early and beginning pct? im kinda worried about having low test levels with the muscle being fucked up. im obviously not a dr though and have no idea if there would be negative effects due to this? thanks for any feedback.
Good luck. I Hope for the best you.
Definite doc visit. Hope for good news for you bro.
Id have doctor check to see if slight tear or worse.
