50. Terry Butcher
Playing for England in a 1989 World Cup qualifier, Terry Butcher received a nasty gash on the head that required stitches. Being a trooper, he got the stitches and then returned to the game. However, repeated headers opened the gash up again, and the bandage wasn’t nearly...
Hi guys, I was just wondering if any of you guys use acupuncture or other traditional Chinese medicine therapies such as cupping to treat your lifting or workout injuries?

Kia Ora everybody,
While this is kind of a 'first time cycle - give me your thoughts' thread ; I am specifically looking to have some queries answered regarding Deca, it's use for joint mobility and tendon strengthening and potential sides when used on it's own or with Test-E as suggested by...
What do you think of this statement?
Hamstrings used as an example do you think this general train of thought is considered in pro sport?
Up to this point in time, most of the attention given to exercise has been for the purpose of increasing functional ability... hoping for increases in...
I play football and have a few injuries that I just can't shake. The doc gives me regular cortisone injections but that's a bit hit n miss. Anyone used stuff to help assist/speed up recovery and if so what did you use. Appreciate any advice.
I'm 177cm and currently weigh 100kgs.
Okay so it's been almost a month since I was last at the gym doing a proper work out, I injured my lower back doing dead lift which I blame myself for a few reason, but as well as that I have done something to my write whilst goalkeeping in soccer, long story short. My hand connected with the...
Reading around the forum it seems that so many of us, myself included, have had major issues with shoulder injuries through weight training.
What can people that are new to weight training do to prevent the problems that have plagued us?
Have any of us learned anything that we can pass on to...
Anyone ever had an injury that they just couldn't get over? My hamstring has been strained a few times over the last 12 months + (sprinting) and my last MRI scan showed no damage at all, and no sign of any previous muscle damage. So physiologically I think I'm fine. But I just can't seem to get...

Many (most?) of us here have suffered training injuries. What sort of effect did it have on your mental approach to training? Obviously we'd all be frustrated that we couldn't train, but did it cause you to lose motivation, cause you to re-evaluate your choice of exercises, rep range, that sort...
The subject on this forum does my head in. Lots of talk recently in Ghostys thread.
He must get injured because of his form, general assumption.
Big Nick, worries obsessively about form. He gets injured plenty.

At first I thought it was a myth from gym rats who do stuff like bench to their collarbone (and a lot of it probably is) but I've noticed a lot of powerlifting veterans and serious bodybuilders have serious shoulder injuries.
I love benching - I want to do it until they put me in a wooden box...

I dont want arguments in this thread. If you do fruity ass core workouts, dont justify them in here, its not a personal attack.
I run a gym, and if clients get injured and cant train, I can't eat. I love to eat. A lot. Often.
