Have you sustained an injury at the gym?

I have, and currently am waiting to have an MRI to see what extent I have injured my shoulder. I felt my shoulder pop in/out and hope it isn't anything serious. I was doing inclined bench dumbell press when i sustained this injury. This is my first injury at the gym? I am a little worried that I won't be able to bench anymore because apparently it is likely this injure will reoccur (i know it is a serious injury). Possibly labral tear (worst case).

Have you had an injury at the gym yet?

Prevention is better than a cure. It sucks being injured :(
 
My shoulder dislocates very easy. It's happened probably around 20 times, 2 of which have been while I'm sleeping, many of while while playing cricket and either bowling/throwing the ball.

But I haven't had much trouble with it at the gym. When I first started out, I couldn't do the full motion of lat pulldowns, but now I'm able to.

How long have you been going to the gym? You may just need to build some muscle up around it to help keep it in.
 
thankfully i haven't gotten any serious injuries just yet , only the regular aches and pains and strains , well at least i hope they are just regular aches and pains and strains , a day or 2 rest and a good rubbing of deep heat is always good
 
started getting lower back pain for awhile ,was rather quite painful and awkward and started to freak me out thinking i had done some serious damage , watching all those oh&s videos , bend with your knees not with back etc

took a day off work and just laid flat on my back and some pain killers , after a few days the pain went away but i still took it easy for about a week , now i'm always careful about that , don't want to do any more damage
 
sprained/twisted my ankle in the gym a few months ago , still gives me problems every so often

Ye, that is what I will most probably doing. However, ill just wait and see what the physio and MRI do say. It is amazing hwo many people get injured at the gym. To all those who haven't been injured yet, remember prevention is better htan cure. And if you do get injured, don't delay anything, go and see your gp asap.
