- amelius 8y agoCould you repeat the information? It seems the original poster deleted it for some reason?
- foota 8y ago@amelius, while I understand the curiosity I think that would be an intrusion of the poster's privacy, when they specifically removed it.
- amelius 8y agoYeah, it's an awkward situation, I understand, but the user is scaring the crap out of people, then retracting part of the essential information. I'm still hoping they will post the information somewhere in an anonymized form, so the bodybuilding community can learn from this accident.
- Xcelerate 8y agoSorry, didn’t mean to scare anyone. I mainly removed it because it was kind of embarrassing. The injury was caused by trying to set a barbell down on the ground myself rather than calling for help when doing bench press. Not something that would happen to most weightlifters.
- throwaway37585 8y agoJust wanted to say there's nothing wrong or embarrassing about sharing our mistakes. Take heart in the likelihood that, by sharing this, you've probably saved a reader from a similar injury.
