Well... Thursday I had an accident. I was maxing out on power cleans, lost my balance, fell, and the bar came down and basically crushed my arm. I get rushed to the ER, blah blah, finally get a morphine drip and they x-ray it. Broken ulna, dislocated wrist. Fun. So the orthopedist says i will more than likely need surgery in the morning (pins\plate). I get some local numbing, orthopedist sets it... I got lucky, ulna snapped back into place and I will more than likely not need surgery now. I go back Thursday for follow-up x-rays to determine if i need pins. But anyways, I got some hydros and I'm feeling a little better (can tiype minimally). Crazy shit, huh?

Sounds nasty...hope you heal up quickly and the pain stays minimal. (sounds like you're well on the road to ensuring that though, heh)

How can 135 pounds crush your arm?


Seriously though, get better bro. Injury always sets the lifting back so that sucks and I feel for ya.

Where did i say 135? I was actually atytempting 235 for the third try. And Maliku may be a wuss... too bad he's a GAME character... this is real life shit.

PS: Hurt my knees before... strained ACL, had to have it drained due to effusion, 2 busted bursa, and quad-patella tendonitis for 2 years now. Thx

I'm not going to get into a pissing contest over this. I have come to know 235 as being a fairly good power clean weight. Thanks for trying to insult me though.
