Me too. my poor old palm skin slid into a bunched up lump and then got crushed like a raw sausage when I did rows last night..
I haven't trained this heavy in years. Must remember to mash palm flesh flat around the bar before doing rows. Rippy skin calluses.

I grabbed some old sponges. They let me keep going.
 

As Andy said its got nothing to do with putting you down.

Those injuries should have been warning signs. Something needed to change, be it form, training style, weight moved, ect. Its about training smart.

Fantastic mature attitude by the way.

You're wrong. But I can see how that may have some across.

I was just making a point that you can be elite and not be a broken mess of injuries and ailments at the end of it.

Not at all implying I was in the same leauge.
 
Weight training must not injure you.
Whether you are a weight lifting hobbyist or elite.

If you are you need to re-asses.

NPR is on the money.

i agree with NPR and silverback. lifting should not injure you. ive been training for a few years now and still relatively free from injury. tweaked a couple things but nothing serious. all my injuries come from playing sport not lifting weights.
 
Whatever!

LOL

Your opinion means nothing to me. It is of no practical use what so ever at this stage.

Save it for your cronies.

Woulda shoulda coulda.

List indicative of a pile of F@ck ups, point taken.

Get over it and move on.

Did it bleed and is it black under the toenail now? I think you may lose your toenail slowly if it is.
 
It bleed underneath the nail then, mine took 12 months to fall off and regrow (does it at the same time by growing underneath).
 
I nearly killed someone at the gym the other day, was benching 3 plates, I finished my sets so went to re-rack the plates like a good little member, I wasn't paying attention to what I was doing and removed all 3 plates off 1 side, the bar did a huge 180deg spin/flip, missed a bloke by about a foot... Luckily no one was hurt, I apologised to the bloke for about 10 mins, I felt horrible. That will never happen again.

Also, speaking of filthy nails, li was helping disassemble a machine at work 2 years back, something fell, I couldn't let go quick enough and got my ring finger crushed, ripped the entire nail off, snapped the bone off and my finger was about 10mm shorter... The piece of flesh was still attached to the nail, A few plastic surgeries later and my finger looks almost perfect now.
