Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda,Chainsaw13 and Icehog3 II
Not a good day at the shithole gym.
Decided to prefatigued with cables today for back and go relatively light on rows after.
Did 5 good heavy sets of cable rows.
Put 200 on the pulldown stack and starting pulling rep 1 of set 1. Cable snapped about 18 inches up from the bar, I went flying back, bar hit me in the chest. The porter from the gym was right behind me and saw it happen.
Took a few minutes, back felt only slightly tweaked, so I finished the workout with light T-bars and some other light rowing. Didn't make it any worse, but it's stiffening up now that I'm cooling down. Hopefully no big deal. Management at the gym didn't seem too concerned, but I had them do a report, just in case. And an employee as a witness. Gym has gone downhill in a big way the last few months.
