Hi,
My right rib started hurting a few hours after workout. I used belt for squat and bench. I am wondering if the belt was too tight/too high. Or would laying on bench/getting up from bench with belt on (tight) cause this? This has never happened before. Breathing is ok. Pain does not get worse when moving around vs sitting. The pain isn't that bad, it is just pretty annoying when I feel it even when I am not doing anything.
So, what could have caused this, could this be a minor tear and how prevent this from happening again? My next training day should be on Monday, I am not sure if I should skip that session (I am running Madcow btw). Thanks.
Update 10.5: Rib feeling better, almost no pain. Looks like I can lift tomorrow, still wondering if this was caused by belt usage.
