It feels as though I never even had an injury. Until I did suitcase deadlifts, then I felt a little bit of something on the top set, holding the bar with my right hand.

Ever since I started taking strength training seriously, I was bitten by the Iron Bug. Then it burrowed under my skin and laid eggs in my heart. Now those eggs are hatching and I... the feeling is indescribable.
