Burly Decides to Pull Again...

[burlyman30]

That muscle pull that happened midway up was more than a cramp, but less than a tear. It's fairly painful today, but I don't think it is a serious injury. I'm hoping a few days of resting it will allow it to heal.

On a side note... I gotta say it was a bit of an ego boost to school the other guy who is nearly 20 years younger than me. He, like me, had been on an extended break from DL, but he has pulled 475 before.

Nice man, I think great form for the weight. This is what I should strive for in the heavy weights, I suppose

Gotta catch up to you, now.

Ehhhh looks to me like you could do more with my form. Not sure if my back could be quite that flat on 455. Maybe though. I'll get my next DL session filmed and see. (Won't be going as heavy)

It souns like you have steam machine in your gym....
Good job Burly, I was bit suspicious about your lower back- but it seems that is OK, and well done- first training after 6 months and you've beaten my PR by almost 100 lb. maybe I should start knitting, er ?
Well done, Burly.

A lift done by the experienced DL'er himself.
I think all of us are now inspired by this!

Jel- what is your hormonal status? Are you on TRT or other things?

Wrong thread.

The muscle pull is feeling better already, just 36 hours later, which is encouraging. It is still sore in a way that is different than usual muscle soreness from a back workout, but not so sore that I would deem it painful. My next day to work lats is scheduled in two more days. If it is still sore, I'll see what I can do to work around it.
