Probably pulled a muscle or made a tendon angry. Quote "Pull the bar like you're ripping the head off a god-damned lion" - Donny Shankle Link to comment
CalvinHobbes Posted January 18, 2012 Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 What were you doing when it started hurting? Were you actively doing something or is it sore? Quote Link to comment
WizardTrip Posted January 18, 2012 Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 Did the same thing a couple weeks ago when I took a nasty spill on my snowboard. It was certainly sore to raise my arm high, and hurt when I rolled over to sleep on that side. Took about a week or so for it to feel mostly back to normal, and last night was the first night I felt I could really get back to the bench. I tested mine everyday with stretching and massaging. With that said, I knew I didn't do any serious damage, so no doc for me. It was a "been there, done that" moment.

spatzcat Posted January 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 don't laugh.I completed the first of my 4 sets, 20 rep workout, it was horrifically hard, but perfectly awesome. The next day, I was telling my co-worker to bitch slap his wife if she didn't make him dessert (totally joking). I made a 'bitch slap' gesture, and it didn't feel right at all. that evening, things went more wrong as that shoulder seized up. It doesn't hurt to touch, or to lie on, only to move. I guess that's bitch slap karma for ya. (I'm a girl btw. this would sound much worse coming from a boy). Quote Never let your fear decide your fate. Link to comment

spatzcat Posted January 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 GAH! I'm guessing leg workout and skip the upper body next workout. boo! Quote Never let your fear decide your fate. Link to comment
ETFnerd Posted January 18, 2012 Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 I'd try to work through it with a thorough warmup. I do heavy pullups and my left shoulder always feels stiff, but a warm up and some fwd and bwd arm swings loosen it up. If the pain continues to get worse, stop. I also stretch it a lot, but the warm up set usually is what relieves the pain and makes it functional again. Good luck and be careful in case it's more than just soreness.

spatzcat Posted January 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2012 I don't see a workout in my future tonight, unless I just do some ball crunches or some cardio. the stupid thing hurt to sleep on last night, and typing and using my mouse today totally sucks balls. I am super pissed about it.next time i pretend to bitch slap anyone, I'm stretching first. Quote Never let your fear decide your fate. Link to comment
m00se Posted January 19, 2012 Report Share Posted January 19, 2012 Sounds like painful arc - supraspinatus tendinitis. Rest it up and you should be OK. If you can still physically do it, but it's just painful, then you haven't torn anything through, which is good news. Just don't push it too much. Quote Link to comment
spatzcat Posted January 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2012 it's going to be a lefthanded sort of day. which sort of sucks. there are no hand jobs in my future today. bahahhhaahaa, just some mid-week humour for ya. Quote Never let your fear decide your fate. Link to comment
