I was bench pressing heavy one day around 2-3 weeks ago, 315lbs to be exact. On my second rep I heard and felt a POP on the left side of my chest. I stopped immediately and thought that I had torn my left pectoral. After a few minutes I had noticed that perhaps my left pectoral did not tear even though the pain was very intense. I stopped my workout and went home with the fear that I probably had torn my left pectoral. I went online to lookup torn pectorals and symptoms and to my relief my left pectoral did not tear. Because there was no bruising" black & blue" marks and I felt no tearing sensation like the symptoms had mentioned. I only had intense pain that wouldn't allow me to do certain exercises like bench press or dips. Now 2-3 weeks later the pain has dissipated and I can finally bench press again. I never went to the hospital to find out what had happened. Has this ever happened to anyone, and if so can you please tell me what I experienced and what had happened to me?
Thank you.
