Pec/Chest Brace

[slesh]

So I recently strained my right pec benching and have been searching for some kind of brace or support I can wear in the gym. I know the best cure is rest and I plan on taking some time off from benching but I still need to work chest with cables and other forms of presses. You guys have any recommendations?

I’m not aware of a brace.
BPC-157 injected at the injury site daily will speed up the healing.
I used to put 250-500mcg daily in the wound with a slin pin.

A strain is minor tears so I'd use the same protocol used for major belly tears.

Go light and use compound movements. It's the range of motion that makes it work.

Just completely rest it and train legs a few times this week. It's not worth worsening the injury doing a subpar chest day or two whilst it's strained. Just complete rest and hit legs hard. You won't regress having 1 week from upper body training but you will if you worsen the injury. Then when you come back do a few light weight pump style workouts. When it feels 100% you can start pushing the weight again (after a long warm up).
