Anybody torn their bicep distal tendon or tore the bicep muscle from the tendon?
I have done one of those and am waiting on mri. What do I get to look forward to? Should I stay on a cruise or taper off till everything is done?
That’s how I tore mine. Choked the guy out with a rear naked choke. Didn’t realize it was hurt till I tried to pick up my water bottle and I couldn’t lift it. Mine was a proximal tearBeen there done that and irony is that the distal biceps tendon was completely ruptured during a BJJ competition. I heard a loud snap and proceeded to submit the guy with a half-guard guillotine using the arm with the completely torn biceps. Years of training under Renzo Gracie has effectively deleted the notion of giving up/surrender/tap out/etc.
I trained at Renzos for a few years at his first academy in NYC. The one on the third floor. Trained alot with John Danahar back then. He had the MMA class on sundays.Been there done that and irony is that the distal biceps tendon was completely ruptured during a BJJ competition.

Stay on HRT dose throughout your surgery and long recovery phase. Then increase hormones 6 months after the tendon fully mends to the bone. I’ve had both bicep tendons repaired. It’s a long recovery!!!Anybody torn their bicep distal tendon or tore the bicep muscle from the tendon?

OSS, I'm pretty adamant about not tapping if ever in a armbar situation, I train some sort of bicep curl everyday to strengthen that movement needless to say between a shoulder sub or armbar, its not happening here bud..OSS, tore mine at BJJ also, stayed on trt, was back rolling in 4 months.
Mine wasn’t while rolling but during an actual street fight while apprehending a skip. I actually attribute a hard bicep workout from the day before that i was still sore from for the tearOSS, I'm pretty adamant about not tapping if ever in a armbar situation, I train some sort of bicep curl everyday to strengthen that movement needless to say between a shoulder sub or armbar, its not happening here bud..
I haven't have never experienced a bicep tear but I did catch a grade 2 hammy tear in Bjj.. HGH cut the rehab time in half.. apologies to the OP for being off topic.
