Does anybody know how Charles tore his pec? Was this recent? I don’t recall him having a torn pec

I don’t recall how he did it but it was about 9-12 months ago

I think more like 5-6 months - not that it really matters

He was getting set up for heavy incline dumbbell press

Tore it as he was getting ready to do his first rep

Damn what are those 200lb dumbbells or something? I didn’t watch the whole video I can’t stand watching injury videos it puts doubt in the mind when lifting. I don’t think I have ever heard of someone tearing a pec on dumbbells

It could have been much worse, imagine if the injury occurred while he was doing the reps.

Charles is a fucking strong, tough guy.

At that level of strength the dumbbells are too unwieldy to risk throwing them up yourself, they look as long as his torso

I think he is in his 40s as well not sure what his exact age is but I think lifting those weights at this stage of his career is a bit foolish. I mean realistically at this point how much size is he really going to add?

I don’t understand why guys will use heavy free weights for chest at this point for anymore

Why not just use heavy chest machines and then dumbbells with more manageable weight - just to ensure the stabilizer muscles stay up to snuff

I still barbell flat press after a chest fly movement, and I wear the least helpful slingshot. Makes it more tricep dominant, and gives some support in the chests vulnerable area.

But yea, pec tears are scary

This is exactly what I do nowadays. Leverage machine for heavy presses, then moderate weight for DB pressing.

Course I invested in the Spot Grips so I never have to kick up heavy weight anymore. Those lil inventions eliminate that awkward knee kick to get the DB’s in place.
