alright fellas. I'm not new to deadlifting, but this is something thats never happened. I was doing deads this morning and after I was done, I had this pain in my chest that feels like I strained something. It's right in the middle of my chest and really isolated. I feel like I might have rolled my shoulders too far back when I was at the top. Anyone ever had this happen or know what it might be? Thanks brothers.

Be careful will feel like you are having a heart attack can totally restrict your breathing ibuprophen and some anti inflamatory medecine. Bottom line bro you probably will be out of lifting for a month at least if you talk to any doctor that iswhat they will say .

maybe a bruised sternum. Give it a few days and see how it feels.

This is very common , ive got this shit too,anyway,When you were doing dl's you seem to squeezed your nerve with a rib .It's not dangerous , but you can go to the clinic and they will make a so called manual therapy and it will cool down ,the nerve is like a pump , the more you press on it the more it hurts, i should do it as well but i always forgot , i got used to it.

These two sound about right. I doubt its a pulled muscle because I can do pushups and its not a problem. Its not so sore today, so hopefully itll be completely gone by tomorrow, but if anything changes ill be sure to post it. Thanks for the help by all.
