That sucks Man! Hope you heal soon!

 

[brandy101010]

oh yeah...How did you do that?...

 

[Golden Gate Geckos]

OMG, Tom!!! What happened? Are you OK?

 

[The NY Gecko]

Yes, I can walk. It just hurts like hell. I was lifting weights in the school weight room, and I put too much pressure on my back and caused a pressure fracture in one of my vertebrate. Not really alot they can do to fix it cause of where it is.

 

[Nastynotch]

atleast tell us you maxed out at some wild number?

 

[shrap]

Ouch Tom. Hope you get well as quickly as possible.

But this is a perfect example of why you should keep the weight lifting to the 12 ounce variety.

What exercise were you doing?

 

[The NY Gecko]

What exercise were you doing?

Calf raises

 

[steve75]

I figured you were squatting to get a stress fracture. Do calf-raises on the leg press bud! I play college football and last year had a teammate fracture a vertebrae after a BIG hit to the back. It sounds like a miserable position to be in.

Awww I thought I wasn't going to be the only paralyzed person on here...

Glad you're okay though because wheelchairs can be a pain in the ass!
