Yep. After 5 months training up to this meet and getting my body weight up to a solid 308, I dislocated my knee yesterday and I'm out of the meet this weekend. May try bench only, and if I'm really feeling froggy, push/pull with stiff legged deadlift. I'm in a knee immobilizer and awaiting a referral for an MRI. Docs had to relocate the knee last night. They offered me pain meds but I told them powerlifters don't feel pain. Well, the relocation was anything but pain free, but I managed to only break one rail on my bed (true story).

Now I turn my attention away from my self-pity and towards my friends, training partners, and pupils that are still competing this weekend. I'm a little devastated, but looking forward to seeing them all smash some PRs.

I both like, and dislike, this post, lol. Thanks brother.


How did this happen?

The same way every highly regrettable injury happens..... horseplay. A guy in the gym started trying to wrestle me, and while trying to take me down, POW. He feels absolutely terrible, and I hold no ill-will towards him at all. Shit happens. Hindsight is 20/20.
