Interesting Eric. Almost sounds as though you're implying that either I've increased the weight too quickly, or that my form isn't correct. I'm sure at this point you know I'm not taking this personally, but typing out loud.
Thinking about it, I guess both of those options are possible too. I've always been a small guy (dam ectomorph) and adding nearly 35 pounds of body weight and increasing the bar weight as much as possible over 12 weeks might be faster than I'm able to adapt. Or I could have a form problem that caused it. Guess we're never going to know, but I'm thinking going to the doctor for some anti-inflammatory pills and a little rest might be a good idea. Other than the fact that I'm injured, the thing that really pisses me off is I'm 10lbs from my goal weight. Maybe I should take this injury as a time to switch to a cutting phase for a few weeks. I'm guessing the cutting phase might be a little easier on that area, though I don't know really.
Or, should I switch off of SS to a different program? I don't like switching because something is the new cool program, but if there's a better program for me, I'm all for it.
Dammit!
