bicep tear

Keep us posted on your progress. If the healing period goes as expected, the tendon will be stronger than before at the attachment point. Was it your off hand or primary arm?

Luckily my off hand. I'm at dr right now for follow up. Thinking about asking his opinion on low dose GH for healing. Anyhow I seem to be healing quickly. I went to the gym yesterday and did some light legs and was also able to do some tricep cable extensions and light chest (seated machine). Today both my knee and bicep have no pain. Just a slight discomfort at the incision on the elbow. I've heard some real horror stories about this type tear. I guess I should consider myself lucky.

Thanks for the kind words. I'll keep updating as healing progresses.

I asked dr about hgh at this appointment and he said there is def benefit from using gh for healing (no shit lol), but like most he had to say "i can't tell you yes or no and NO I DO NOT RX HGH".

I think sometimes doctors don't listen cause I told him right off I wasn't looking for a script of gh....
anyhow I was wondering how much size was lost after others tore their bicep? my shit is looking sad right now. discouraging to say the least. i'm afraid to measure it because I know I'll freak the fuckout on how much i've lost!

thanks

Dont forget, certain types of AAS's actually aid in the healing process. Maybe do some research and get on one or two. And diet, eat right and you will heal faster. It is way more of a mayjor tear than just the tiny tears you get when you lift, but treat it the same, feed it the food and supps it needs to heal.

yeah i'm considering adding 150mg deca with my test replacement during this healing time. it;s been a long time since i've had to take this sorta break and honestly i think it's fucking with my mind a bit.

edit, i'm usually very strict on my diet, but have let things slip slightly. i said sunday i was going to really start cleaning up my diet, but i've seemed to lost my focus i guess.

tomorrow's a new day!

A buddy of mine had this problem. Had to wait 6 weeks and only could work out legs and abs. He of course lost some gains,but got them back pretty quick man. All you can do is take it easy and keep in mind that when you do heal....You'll be able to hit it hard!

**Walker** · 07-21-2013, 12:35 PM

4 weeks post surgery now. Bicep has lost major size and is about an 1 1/2" - 2" shorter now. Using 4-5 iu's of GH 5 days a week, 250mg deca and 300mg test. Honestly I know I'm trying to do to much. I went to the gym 4 days last week and iced my arm all 4 days. Point of incision is risen and slightly sore. For next two weeks (minimum) its cardio only.
