Finally was excited to start my first cycle other than test (Deca, Dbol, Test) and I just got home from the worst workout. It was a long run (25 years without a serious workout injury), but no more. I was hitting 335 for 6 which is not hard for me, but I just started back into barbell bench this last month. On my 5th rep I heard cracking and popping and my left pec give way like I had no strength. Luckily I had a spotter which I normally don't. He pulled the weight off me. My left pec in the center closer to the shoulder swelled up immediately. I went to the locker room and did not see black and blue like I expected or any discoloration. This was about 45 mins ago now and the swelling has gone down, but it feels like a lump in my chest. It hurts near the outer part to flex and there is slight pain where the pec inserts. I can't imagine with cracking and popping this is just a strain. I'm hoping for only a partial tear. Maybe that's worse than a clean complete tear, I don't know. Who has experience with this and what do you guys think?
Crappiest timing ever. I was so pumped to get huger.
