- Oh, oh my gosh. Oh my gosh.
Popped pecks, how not to pick up chicks
and biceps be gone. What?
You guys know, I love to work workout.
So that's why today we are breaking down
and reacting to all of the medical mishaps
and gym injuries from workouts gone terribly wrong.
Alright, let's dive right in.
Nice. A Lot of weight.
You know, you worry about getting a laceration
or an abrasion to the back of your head.
If it rolls up on your spine
it can actually cause a spinal cord injury
and the bones of your neck could also fracture as well
and cause some injuries to your ligaments and tendons.
On top of that, you should build up
to this type of weight and know confidently
that you most likely have the ability to lift it.
You have to be really careful when you're dealing
with the situation where the bar is now bouncing around
and it potentially can hit you back again.
You know you don't want to be
on that TV show 1000 Ways to Die where
you had some freak accident
where the bar just impaled you
into your neck or your abdomen and you die
because of a weird freak injury that
happened at the gym. Be careful.
- Yes. Come on Bob.
- Come on Bob.
Oh Bob, passed out.
Oh my gosh, sorry man.
Somebody passes out, they basically push too hard
they Valsalva and you decrease blood
to the brain and you pass out.
Don't sit somebody up too fast right
after the event cause they'll pass out again
or they'll vomit all over you.
So let them just lay down on the ground
for a little while and get the blood pressure back up
and get some profusion back in the brain.
If you end up having all that weight fall
on your neck just to cause swelling
of the airway and actually you can cause compression
of everything in the upper airway
and you can't get any air through that area.
And then obviously head injury
whiplash injuries, intercranial bleeding.
Oh, what happened?
Ouch. Okay, ouch.
That's a lot of weight coming down
on your head and your neck and people come in all the time.
Lacerations to the skull.
The skin splits open due to the trauma.
You gotta clean it out.
Get some Betadine or Chlorhexine
on the outer wound
and get it to come together.
Usually with staples on the head.
Sometimes we'll do sutures and then you always worry
about any fractures to the cervical vertebrae in the neck.
And then obviously you can have fractures of
your skull and intracranial bleeding.
Definitely get checked out, probably come to the hospital
get a scan of your head in your neck
make sure you're okay and go from there.
Oh nice. Whoa, watch the fan. Oh ah
He is so lucky he didn't get like an eyeball flying out.
Even laceration to like the accordion of your eye
or an open globe basically meaning you've hit the eye so bad
that the fluid in the eye comes out.
It's super dangerous and go blind very quickly
and very easily and the potential
of getting your vision back is very low.
When you're trying to do this at a normal everyday gym.
The ceiling typically is not made for it.
If you can potentially get electrocuted
if you're too close to the mechanism
make sure when you're doing these exercises
that the space is clear in there.
You're not gonna injure yourself.
Extensions, oh gosh, oh gosh,
that's a heavy weight.
Something's gonna pop.
Oh, oh first I heard the noise and I thought it
was him not good. Ouch.
You're gonna get like a rubber band like injury snap
to that area, but you'll probably be just fine.
They'll cause redness, swelling, injuries
but they'll go away.
The biggest thing is you wanna make sure is
these don't snap you in the eye.
You gotta be a little aware when you're doing
a DIY at the gym trying to get some extra weights.
I'm just saying be careful.
I was looking at that weird contraption
how tight it was in multiple different directions.
Thank goodness that only snapped and it wasn't
his leg snapping. So just be careful.
Oh don't lie down. Oh my gosh, oh my gosh.
That much weight. You gotta be so careful about
locking out that is so painful looking.
You really want to get this checked out because
you don't wanna have any injuries to the major
blood vessels that run behind the knee.
This machine as well as the angled leg press machine
are two big ones where you have hyperextension
injuries like this when you're locking out too
much and then it just gives, so be careful
lift it with my shirt off. Got my jean shorts.
Oh, oh. Oh, oh, oh oh, oh
Wow, woo.
If this compressed down on his neck, the worries
that you think about are airway as well as vasculature
as well as bones.
If it hits your airway, hits your trachea
you can cause inflammation of the trachea.
You can crush the tracheal rings, which then
could occlude your airway and prevent you
from getting air in.
And then if you compress too hard,
you could compress down
on the major blood vessels.
You can cause tears to them.
And after a tear to the major blood vessels of your neck
you can actually throw embol, basically clots
into your brain and you can stroke out.
And then obviously if there's too much force you
can cause massive spinal cord injury.
If it hits hard enough you can actually push
through and cause and fractures to the vertebra
in the back.
A lot of weight.
- I've got you, I've got you.
- Uh, oh, he pulled his peck.
Oh, ouch, ouch, ouch, ouch, ouch.
The attachment is gone.
Lots of discomfort.
Need to get that fixed, get it reattached by a surgeon.
You'll be able to lift again in the future.
You just need to strengthen the connective tissue
back up again.
Now you don't have that connection there
to push that weight up
So now it's dropping on you.
Thank goodness he didn't just have this one spotter
behind him, but there were two other individuals
on each side to be able to pick that weight
weight up real fast so it doesn't hurt
the individual or anybody else around.
- Up, up, up, up
- Oh he rips his left bicep.
Oh man, you can pop it on either side.
Biceps are very common and a lot of weight there.
Biggest concern is with people who do steroids actually
cause with steroids you increase muscle mass
and strength very fast
but your tendons and your connective tissue
need time to gain that strength as well.
So it may not be able to handle the load
that your muscle is able to handle and then things can pop.
You need to get it, you know, put back in place.
You need surgery to tie it back in position.
I've seen people who never got it repaired
and then they still continue to have a functioning arm
and bicep but with like basically physical
deformities to the arm itself.
Oh come on, this is not necessary.
Something's gonna happen. The girls are gonna fall.
Yep, uh huh.
Yeah, why don't you just use weights?
You don't need to be cool
and cause excess potential injury to somebody.
The individual with the pink shorts on now goes flying
cause somebody falls off and the worry ends
up being the direct fault of the ground
though then reposition of the bar that the guy's gonna do.
You're concerned that you're gonna smack somebody
in the face or the head
or the chest with that bar or in the neck.
Ouch. Falls sideways.
You gotta have like a head injury that's just
it's gonna be awful. Gym fails,
gym injuries are very common that this happens.
Send any my way if you want me to check it out
and see what type of injuries occurred.
But it's not a benign place.
People rupture things.
They have things come out of holes that you
don't expect and lots of lacerations, abrasions
muscle poles, muscle ruptures, and even dislocations.
So be really careful.
Be cognizant when you're actually working out.
