I went to the Ortho and he told me I tore the long head out of a tunnel that goes into my shoulder. He said it's a common injury in sports and MOST guys never get it fixed. He said it's called the "popeye arm injury" because of what it makes the bi look like. I'm going for an MRI next week and to meet with his partner who handles the sports injurys side of the practice.
At the moment my bi never looked so good. It doesn't hurt to bad either. I asked him if this will atrophy away and start to look like hell if I don't get it fixed? He kinda answered me like "Peter paying Paul" over time and I will keep the size.
I have no plans on backing off with the workouts. I will just not be doing any pulling/curling type sets until I find out what to do.
Who knows about this kind of injury and can share some info? Anyone have any pics of BB with this? Did Branch rip out the top or bottoms of his bis? I know Vinny Gallanti has a bi injury, not sure how it broke.
The one good thing the Dr said was the inner short head almost never lets go. Even after having the outer long head failure.
Any way....any info on this would prolly help me sleep a little better at this point.
