sorry to hear that. Thought that you were up around the 600# range. Form issue? Doing a competition this weekend in Phoenix. Get well.
 
Thanks! I'm mostly recover now. The only reason I wouldn't say I'm fully recovered is that I'm not training at the same level as before but not due to any physical limitation from the injury.

Headdoc, form felt good. I had been progressively training up to the weight for several weeks.

This is the second muscle tear in as many years and the only ones in 20 years training.

I am not certain why. I suspect it may have something to do with the additional endurance training from cycling. Maybe resulting in asymmetries? Overtraining?
