Wtf. Tore my Tricep off today...

[GYMnTONIC]

Gonna need surgery...

It was at a Trampoline Park. A 4-5 year old girl had climbed up to the top of the mats and got her leg stuck in the netting. She was screaming, hanging by a leg about 10ft up, and several kids and 2 mom's frantically tried to get her down and fell on their faces. I shimmied up the padding in socks. Crawled on the netting to her... Bear hugged little girl...when I pulled to release her I fell backwards 6-10ft landing on my arm w all my bodyweight. It tore off instantly. Little girl was ok, she slid down unharmed once I freed her.

I'm definitely in pain.

Surgeons closed til Monday. I have a great Ortho if his office still takes my Insurance.

Fuck! Some serious suturing gonna happen with that one. Sports ortho for sure! Was it proximal (seems so) quite complex. I have seen plenty of distal/proximal bicep tears (all balled up). Damn! Well, time to stock up on repair factors : maybe get some gh from the surgeon.
Sorry Wesley! Shit happens always when I am doing activities (not bodybuilding) sports! Everytime!

If that ain't the damn truth! It's always far the hell away from the weight room when I really get hurt

Damn. Being a hero comes at a price. But good on you for helping her

Dammit Wes, that's rough and hopefully a good surgeon can fix that up like new.

EDIT: Nice you saved that little girl from getting seriously hurt however.

[wesley_swolle]

Damn Wes, I'm in pain just thinking about that injury. Props to you for springing into action to save that little girl. Hoping you have a full and speedy recovery brother

Damn sorry to hear this. About 5 years ago I tore my right bicep tendon off the bone, the forearm attachment. I had surgery to re-attach it but after it healed it looked like I was missing half of my bicep. This is due to the loss in tendon length after the repair. So then I found a plastic surgeon in Cali that specializes in muscle implants. I flew out there and had them put a silicon implant in my arm to make it look normal. Oh and I tore it while moving a TV, not while working out.

Thank u everyone.

Yeah I feel good about helping that little girl.

I will say I'm laughing right now. She was a complete stranger and when I climbed up there and ber hugged her to help her, she stopped crying out of pure fear 🤣🤣

When I landed I think everyone expected me to be ok.

They were so focused on the girl they failed to see me babying my arm

I spoke to the Company about this. Honestly their Insurance may need to cover this. It's actually the company's fault.

No staff to assist (or even present)

I'm glad I helped but now I want this reattached. One way or another.

I was just repping weights like a toy again and dieting too...

BPC and hgh will be my new best friends 😁

I feel like Sloth. My entire arm is missing🤣🤣🤣

[MindlessWork]

Looks like your tri is all retracted...that's gonna be a tricky fix there.

[chicagosterone]

Fuck bro that sucks....not sure what recovery from something like that even looks like, hopefully the surgery will give you decent mobility back. Close freind of mine tore his bicep. took him about 6 months for 60% mobility... about year before he was able to train that arm 100%ish
