Deadlifting accident yesterday caused me to wreck my spine again. Who knows why but I did back at the gym instead of my own gym yesterday and maxed out on deadlifts. Now I already have a dodgy back so one moment lapse of concentration means dead meat. It was going well and got to 5 and on the 6th rep I noticed a pair of idiots staring at me like they’ve never seen such a freak. I didn’t realize i look that much of an abomination! I mean it must have been that. I was only deadlifting somewhere around 250lbs. Although that’s a lot for me cause my spine is dodgy in the first place and i’m only 130lbs myself a tiny frame…. :-O Thing is I know I can do more but the danger and the idea of six months off lying on a bed if something goes wrong isn’t a nice thing. Anyway back to the two goons, I duno why I let it distract me but it did and then I thought damn better put it down cause it felt dangerous. As I put it down I felt the pain of a cutting sword. A familiar pain. One I didn’t want to feel again!
When I woke up the next morning couldn’t even get out of bed. But after a few hours forced myself up and walking, so it’s not as bad this time as the major issues of the past where I couldn’t walk, sit or stand for months on end and just had to spend them lying on a bed. I’d crushed my vertabraes before and another time slipped a disc. Those two were the ultimates, far beyond this. I was on a bed for months those times. Had a trapped nerve in spinal area recently too…. That was another month off…. :-S Well these are the best explanations I could get. Doctors here don’t do anything and don’t wana know as long as you can eat, sleep and slash they think that’s enough of a life. Luckily last time I couldn’t walk for months my Hokuto No Ken box set helped me through and inspired me to recovery and buffing with more rage than ever. Hah.
But anyway this time hope i’m not off too long. It seems i’m so used to getting crippled that this pain which I know should incapacitate at least to some degree i’ve managed to force through and still do things. So it seems i’m used to being crippled and can withstand it more than a regular person now. Not that it’s a good thing. It’s bad that i’ve had such experiences! It’s just an observation, so i’m wondering what I can force myself to do even when in this state. I duno when I can buff again though. But atleast I walked around and tried some mowing today…. :-S
Wana try and buff tomorrow if I can get up in the morning. But if it feels stupid like it’s gona be dangerous i’ll wait another day. It’s a month off kinda injury but I wana see what happens if I try and force through the pain this time.
Maybe it’s a dumb idea but gona see what happens and see how I feel over the next few days.
