At the beginning of last year I was hitting the free weights hard, my son was a junior in high school & I was working out with him & his friends on occasion. Man my bench was skyrocketing I pumped up to 425 with no problem, but my head got to big & I tried 450 & ripped my bicep and something in my shoulder. It didn't really hurt at first it was just tight & it didn't feel right, the next morning when I got up I couldn't hold a cup of Coffeee or even get my wallet out of my back pocket. Anyway I ended up having to get Cortisol shots in my bicep & a cortizone shots in my shoulder.
That injury kept me from lifting for almost 6 months, it was a hell of a thing to get over and still bothers me to this day. Anyway I've been back after it for about 6-8 months and my strength is almost back to the point at which I hurt myself. Anyway during that timeframe I tried many things so whatever works for you to get you back in groove is O.K. with me, so I wouldn't laugh at anything you tried just so long as you stay with it.
