  • bad day at the gym today

    i guess i was being clumpsy today. Woke up like at 1:30pm today, ate, headed off to the gym at 2:45 or so.

    It was leg day. I didnt lift weights all last week due to spring break. I started stretching and all. The a quick warm up set on the leg extensions.
    I started my workouts with supersetting squats and leg extensions. As soon as i was finished, i headed to the hack squat machine.
    I was fine, until i started loading up the weights. All of a sudden, i my hands were a bit slippery and being clumpsy, i droppped the 45 plate. All i hear was a boom sound, thing landed right on my top part of foot. Then i jumped to avoid hitting my other foot, thats when i almost tripped, so i bang my kneee to some machine there and scrap my knee. The place wasnt that full, but my buddies were like "are you ok". Fk i just played it off like as if nothing, but oh boy the pain was there. I wanted to continue working out but i started limping, couldnt walk properly. So i had to sit down and wait up on my sister who was almost done. But the pain sucked, never happed to me before since i always watch the weights and when i rack them to avoid accidents. Being clumpsy and going to the gym aint good.
    I iced it down right now, see how it goes. The foot is swelled up a bit but guess the ice worked. Im going to see a friend later on who is a radiologist to see what he thinks of it.

    But damn it scared the shit out of me. I was like damn what if i messed it up bad.

    Shit sorry to hear that bro, if it makes you feel any better the same thing happened to me. Let us know how things play out for you.

    Sometimes it is important to have bad workouts just so you have something to reference it against, the whole ying yang theory comes into play.

      it hurt like a bitch, just hope its nothing major. Right now the pain is there, but imjust resting it. Dont wanna be out of the gym or even not train legs for a while.

      Last year that happend to my sister, but the thing was that the plate landed in her big toe. It was a 25 pounder, we got it x-rayed by our friend and showed nothing but a bruise. Stuff like thats freaks me out.
