Do some isometrics, it's better than nothing. Attached are some exercises you could do.

how did that happen =/ Haha when I broke my wrist and they took off the support for the first time, the hand dropped down like a wet macaroni and smelled like cheese. It didn't move at all. After a day it was working quite well though, and the muscles "grew" back really quick. Muscle memory my ass, it prolly has something do do with loss of cell fluids or something. The amount of mitochondrion probably stays the same.
[QUOTE=Seith;32150732]Details bro[/QUOTE]
(It was more of a hand than wrist injury FYI)
Basically I slipped, fell up the stairs (that's right, up), wanted to grab onto the stairs with hand, instead my idiot hand decides to punch the thing with all its force.
You can predict what happened next.
I'm only going to the doctor tomorrow though so I don't know if it's broken, a fracture or just a sissy bruise.
I can move all my fingers freely except for my pinky; it can't move up or to the right without much pain.
When I said wrist injury I was kinda hasty because it only just happened then, I self-diagnosed it as a metacarpal (sp?) injury.
No worries, one arm training baby. I do it's all the time !

What if my hand gets gypsum'd/plastered?
brb can't go to gym shower
Aa it's nothing serious then. I had mine fully broken. You could see the edge of the broken bone.

Suka, use your healthy hand.

Yeah, I broke my forearm, and both bones were sticking out, haha. At first lifting was hard as shit, but now it just hurts like a bitch, but doesn't stop me.
I have never broken a bone because I am perfect
I broke my collar bone actually trail biking for cardio.
Missed a week of going to the gym and when trying to bench a weight 5lbs lower than my last bench, my wrist started hurting. Is my wrist just getting used to it again or is something wrong?
Also are dumbbell wrist curls effective?
Hello fellow facepunchers, just one simple question:
Which one is better; to keep increasing weight when working out or to keep decreasing?
I see a lot of people in my gym, who come here, start doing bicep curls or bench press or whatever, and the more they do it, the more they decrease their weight. But I also see some guys doing it the other way around!
So I ask you, what do you think its the better option? Thanks for explanation :D

Hmm to be honest that's a good question I think, I don't really know. Personally I do 2 warm up sets, then I do 3-4 working sets increasing/decreasing weight depending on how I'm feeling. I think most people try to increase weight as they can accurately judge how much they are going to be able to lift judging from the set before.

I read an article and it stated that the overwhelming majority of your wrist/forearm strength will be coming from your compounds like deadlifting etc. and that wrist curls hardly affect your strength/size , and that you risk for injury from doing them.
I'm 140 pounds 16 years old, and 5'11. Is getting 12 reps of 125 pounds a respectable amount?

don't know what you mean by "respectable"
Just lift heavy and hard and get stronger
I'm 17 160lbs and repping 180lbs 2x5 and I still don't brag about it, lol.

I am finally equal with perf.
[editline]6th September 2011[/editline]
if yer 6 feet then we have p much same stats i believe
Well I've only been stagnating in everything but strength for 5 months. Lol, gotta love not paying shit attention to your diet
[editline]7th September 2011[/editline]
I don't know how much I squat right now but I think my last max was ~300lb or something very close.
So come at me bro
[editline]7th September 2011[/editline]
and yeh I am somewhere between 6'0 and 6'1
noo i cant squat that much.
But yeah I can tell you've been 160 for awhile if I recall correctly.
keep bulking dood. 170 is right around the corner, heh
Yeah I've been at 160 for ages, I have too much going on to pay close enough attention to diet.
Working 30 hours a week plus school plus juggling women around is tough work.
Try harder. I got the same problems (which are good problems to have)
I'm gonna fuck you in the ass.

[editline]6th September 2011[/editline]

One of the biggest misconceptions/realizations is the fact that using machines is actually horrible for you compared to free weights because of compounding muscle groups rather than isolation.
(I'm going to start working out this school year and thought this was a helpful site).
The only reason this site gives you to use machines is when you're unable to do a pull up.

[QUOTE=Seith;32144601]Doing some research here, people who had, have had, experience with SS please state the following :
in a 4 month period; how much pounds have you gained from start to finish (even approx's are good), strength gains and did you stall at any point during that 4 month period.
This question is aimed towards pure beginners.[/QUOTE]

They aren't terrible, but you're average dude is better off focusing almost entirely on free weights. Training stabilizers > greater strength > greater strength > larger loads> larger loads> more stimulation> potentially more hypertrophy.
