I'm a silly T***

[Justin Hurley]

Spent four hours last night in the A & E getting stitches in my head.

The day didn't go very well as I was overtired, my training partner cried off due to other committments but I was determined to train, it was going to be my last session I wanted to just go over a few things before the comp.

I bombed out at squatting 270kg , I then started to unload the bar of plates and me being a thick shit, pulled all the plates off one side without taking any off the other. As I took the last 25kg plate off the bar, the bar flipped up at lightning speed and twatted me in the head. I gave myself a nice deep cut just over the eye. I had to have internal stitches for the muscle and five external stitches to close the cut.

The bar is usually good to be unloaded one end without anything else coming off the other end up to about 220kg, but now Iv'e learnt anything more than that and it's going to hurt....LOL

Ouch!!!

Hope it heals soon, you still doing the comp?

[Justin Hurley]

Everything is telling me not to tbh. I'm shit out of luck lately. I'm thinking to myself that the next thing thats likely to happen is a nasty injury in this comp. I'm still set to compete, but if my luck don't get any better, I might just spectate.

Had a flat battery today in the van today, seems like my alternator has packed in, then my cell phone battery went flat, got to a phone box and then couldn't get hold of anyone. I eventually did in the end, but with my head throbbing today, I've had a right shitty day.

Have an early night mate!

What bar do you have? I had a narrow miss but I only had 140 on the bar. (and so only took 3 plates off one side before it flipped)

[Justin Hurley]

A 320kg rated bar from bodypower. I had 125kg left on the other end, it flipped the bar up at an awesome speed and power. It didn't hurt, it was just a really loud bang when it contacted with me, and it took me by total surprise, woke me up some...lol

Have a look at the golf ball on my head.

[Robert]

LMFAO.

Thats a good battle wound you got there Justin. As for not competing you better pull your head out your ass and get on the platform! :D

[Rob Thomas]

Bet it takes you back to the good ol' days does it Justin?

[Justin Hurley]

Got a black eye today and it's now swolen over my eye and I can't open it properly. It's annoying my eyelash, feels like I have something on my eye.

It does remind me of the old days rob, never ever got cut though, just black eyes and broken nose.

As for not competing you better pull your head out your ass and get on the platform! :D

LOL.. Your right, I'm on mega downer at the moment, cos shit is not going my way, but I'm going to give myself a kick up the ass and do my best.

[Rob Thomas]

If it's annoying an eyelash then leave the maskara off for a few days Justin as it could cause an infection.....

[Justin Hurley]

LOL.... but you love it when I wear the maskara.. Will you still think I'm sexy without it.... :wink:

[bigger shaolinmonk]
