What an awesome and helpful take!

Correction! "The HARDEST pill to swallow: if you hurt yourself in the gym, it was your fault."... In the words of Ben Kenobi, "Well, of course I know him. He's me." In the words of Johnny Cash, "I hurt myself today..." In the words of Ben Parker, "With great power, comes great responsibility." In the words of Green Day in "Restless Heart Syndrome", "I'm a victim of my symptom; I am my own worst enemy"

Agreed. Had three injuries in the gym all my fault. 1) torn hamstring - RDL deep into a cut with an increase in ROM using same weights I did with less Rom. 2) Rotator cuff grade 3 tear - warm up sets on bench press felt off and normally when something doesn’t feel right I swap it out. 3) Herniated Lumbar disc - too much high intensity squats and deadlifts close to powerlifting event. Poor programming.
