Front squats

×3 (supposed to be 5) I don’t know what happened but I started blacking out during rep 3 and my upper back/traps cramped like hell and now they feel strained. Had to rack bar. Started packing up front squats yet I had 1 set left 
I started saying fuck that I’m not a quitter il lift it for all the reps or I’m a weak failure pussy and il never achieve anything, no craps given if It makes me black out or not, Turned my earphones to max volume,I got angry as hell, All fear gone and then I repped it.

Thanks man! It came at a cost though… I may have damaged my foot. Il elaborate in my next post
…
In sport today I rolled my ankle in volleyball. It didnt feel to bad so I kept playing but felt a bit off during the gym. Immediately after I finished my session it hurt like hell and now im limping. Looked it up and think it’s a sprain which I made worse by training… including putting 200kg of pressure from farmers on it 
Really scared now. Il see how it looks tomorrow morning but I’ve never had a sprain before
Don’t sweat it too much. It sucks but it happens. Put ice on it
Ankle sprains suck, but they’re very manageable. My advice is to let it rest for a day or two, depending on severity, then start using it to your fullest capability right away. Seems to speed up the healing process quite a bit over full rest.
I participated in a keg toss like 5 hours after spraining my ankle last year, it was very dumb.
Also, you’re looking pretty solidly built man. All grown up before our very eyes.
I just freak out whenever something bad happens to my body lol!
Thanks man. Mondays deadlift session is tempo work (Light) so should be Okay, Otherwise il have to do Seated goodmornings or something. Worst case scenario is next week just have to substitute exercises. Hopefully it isn’t to bad tomorrow morning.
I would do the same thing. That’s strongman for you lol
Thanks man!! Just been putting in the work and reaping the results. My life’s new chapter is about to unfold soon when year 12 is finished. It’s crazy to think I was 14 when I joined this site, I love looking back and seeing how much I’ve changed physically and mentally, and at the same time disgusted with my earlier behaviour on here lol. This site and the people on here have impacted my life in an incredible way over time.
You might be in the wrong sport then my friend 
I get what you mean though. Focus on what you can control and don’t focus on what you can’t control.
Oh I know there’s always a possibility for injuries. It is inevitable in strongman.
Damn straight man.
Strong stuff Young Duke.
Sorry to hear about the ankle, but you’ll be fine. Limp around for a day or two, and then just be careful not to do any sudden sideway movements.
Thanks mort. I woke up today with no bruising and it doesn’t hurt as much so I think I got lucky. I’m going to keep icing it and elevating it but I dont think its sprained,if it is Its pretty minor. Weird how it was agony last night and I could hardly walk.
Recovery
300 metre swim. I could just keep going and going but progressing slow.
30 minute spa
10 minute sauna
Needed this lol. Have been going once a week but might make it twice from now on
