I TORE MY TENDON OF THE BONE! SURGERY NEEDED & 6 MONTHS TO RECOVER 

This was Chris' plan the whole time. Gotta take out the competition

I just watched 10 minutes of someone else's doctors appointment. What a time to be alive.

Wishing you a speedy recovery Calum!

Brother with hgh you will be back in 3months max. You got this brother!

Dr. : You're going to need surgery. Calum: Yea, yea, nea, nea, yea, nea, yea, yea...

3:50 the doc was referring to his steroid use and how it could possibly speed up the injury if anyone didnt notice, not that anyone though he was natural anyways

Be more careful Calum... It's all fun and games until someone gets hurt

Wouldn’t it be crazy if Calum wakes up after surgery. Sounding like Arnold from Total Recall, “ You blew my cover!!!”

HGH will bring that recovery to 3 months nbd

Leg days?? Leg months......

That doctors office has got a nice view tbh

Calum I just had surgery today for my hand. I broke it into piece and will be out for 4 months. I’m getting depressed because I can’t workout anymore and will lose everything I worked for. This video has motivated me to keep my head up. Thank you man and hope you heal quickly. I don’t expect you to see this but all I can say thank you and we’re going through this together bro

Fuck and you where going to try get to the Olympia next year :(

On the bright side now is. The perfect excuse to do legs

Good luck turning pro in 2018. You're gonna need it.

Jason Genova could tear his bi and still curl 225lb.

I tore my distal bicep tendon a year ago. Six months of recovery with 3 of those months being physical therapy. I was curling 160# for 6 reps before the tear. Over a year later and I'm back up to 110# for 6.....Good luck on your journey. The key is to progress very slowly....and see how you feel the next day.

Thankyou Calum for showing us your experience,, i am sure we all will be careful with how we train

He should've named the video "Yea" haha

7:21 , that cut is when doctor started talking about steroids :D

God bless for a quick recovery and we all hope to see you in the 2019 Olympia

Good luck with your recovery bro, I know how you must be feeling, 3 months ago I was playing rugby and in a rac I broked my risk completly, I got a surgery of 5 hours and I felt terrible for at least a week, now (after 3 months of surgery and 2 months of recovery) I'm 80% recovered thanks god and still have more to do. Please do all what the doctor tell you and wish you a speedy recovery!

Brad dingleberrys going to fake a bicep tear now

I am so sorry brother! My family and I wish you a speedy recovery! This happens very often, but most times it ends a persons passion for lifting. Keep a log of the struggle through recovery and come out an even greater champion! This will only make you a stronger soul!

Take a shot for every time Calum says Yep while at the doctors.. you’re dead kent

At september 11th i fell off my bike and broke my left elbow... now the only exercise i can do is running... i was very sad at the first weeks... seeing my body which i spend so much time building getting worse and worse by the day was very unplesant... but now in 1.5 month i will start lifting weights again.When everything seems to be going wrong it will start to get better and better. I hope you'll recover soon calum

so this was chris's plan all this time to secure the olympia.....wish u a speedy recovery man!

Couldn’t imagine not lifting for six months. Hang in there buddy everything happens for a reason.

Calum the kind of dude that wears a santa hat in july to cunfuse his head

Cookies look worse than your tendon tbh

She made a chocolate chip toco shell😂😂😂😭😂

Love this guy. He's so goddam confident and positive. Plenty of people would sit around and mope, but he still has a smile on his face. Olympia 2019 Champ right here.

Calum the kind of guy that wishes everyone a happy new year on christmas

This year itself i dislocated my right shoulder,took me about 4 months to get back to normal only to dislocate my left one the month after. The guy who couldn't take a day off for exams or family etc now had to wait this long before Training,its nothing physically u gain back your strength and muscle not that slow but what it does to you mentally is messed up i almost went in depression. So Calum Don't worry man there are alot of us that feel you,ull be good in no time the doctors usually tell u more than needed rest time ull be back in less than 4 months by God's grace.

Just inject some synthol into the bicep tendon.

Well, you guys asked for it! Said he was getting boring and monotonous! Said he didn't have anything new! Said you wanted somethign more! Well here ya go!

by the looks of those cookies, i suspect this gf will last bout 3 months

That sucks ! We should all use this as a learning lesson that it’s easy to tear muscles. Make sure you properly warm up! I wish you a speedy recovery bro!

worth for the instagram ?

Take this as a mind opener bro. I broke my knee cap three years ago and what have learnt when it comes to injuries is that lifting heavy is a must ... It how you do those sets that is cool. Just like cluster sets as an example.. All the best brother ... Will be praying for you

Bradley Martyn be like; "You're not on my level."

All i want to see from you is this : In 1 year from now you overcome, start all over again and make it happen once more. Not giving up, showing strength, showing courage . Wish you get back healthy again as soon as possible Calum. For what to happen this channel since no workout vids will be there? Don't worry about it bro. We will always be around :)

Bumstead did it on purpose so he could have the Olympia to himself

This takes me back to when II broke my upper arm clean through while arm wrestling. Speedy recovery, Cal.

Hope the recovery goes well u sick kent

I was a competitive body builder. National level..and I ruptured my pectoral major in 2004. I was back on stage the following year but I had to dedicate my entire life to it! I had the surgery 10 days after the tear. Which is usually when you want to have the surgery. If you wait too long it will begin to seal off. I was surprised yours didn't roll all the way up. But the doctor explained why. Anyway, my biggest piece of advice to you is DO NOT COME BACK TOO QUICKLY. And at the same time do not wait too long to come back and lose all the flexion in your arm. Also when I tore my pec I only had a nickel sized spot of blood. I noticed you asking those questions about the grade of the injury.

leave that kind of stuff to Dingleberry ya kent

sitting here watching this after ACL reconstruction one-month post-op! We all think we are made of steel until we break m8. Good luck in your recovery, I am sure it will all go well.

It kinda serves Calum right. I remember reading that Arnold wouldn't do anything that would put his bodybuilding at risk, for example going skiing with his girlfriend. Now Calum is going to be out of action for 6 months and all the gains he made this off season are now for nothing. Such a wasted opportunity.

What a fighter! Asking the right questions instead of sulking

Cal , use peptides to heal it fast . Look into bpc 157, speedy recovery man.

I didn't know calum before this injury. Seems like a genuinely good dude! He's like a big teddy bear. I expected an ego on fleek. Judgmental me. Body builders are either egomaniacs or humble. Like there's no in between. Calum is seems to on the humble side. Speedy recovery!

RIP

Bro...don't stress You're gonna be back better than ever. Enjoy the free time to soak up life and refocus. Nothing gambled nothing gained....part of the game. 👊

Sorry about the injury bro... All guys/women who hit the gym daily know these things happen. You just have to stay focused on your goals and understand this temporary. Good luck bro Twitter-Tunedhype

Hey Cal, hopefully you read this. I completely tore off my pec back in March after putting on too much weight back then (sounds familiar?). It took 2 weeks for the surgeons to figure out what I had because it’s a very rare injury here in Belgium. They also told me that if I was lucky it would take me 6 months to be back to normal, and I was unlucky, I would never be able to workout again. Same advice with the months wait for mobility purposes etc. Did the months wait, then went to my physio who is specialised in sports injuries and all in all from tear back to benching 225, it took me 4 months. What I suggest is to wait 2 weeks after surgery (because doctors always give you worst case scenarios when it comes to recovery), then look for a good physiologist. Start working lower body on the machines twice a week and throw in some cardio from time to time (yes you hate it, I hate it, but it was the only way to do something useful in the gym). You’ll be back in 3 months I think. I didn’t try this during my recovery but maybe you can: people (not the surgeons nor physio) told me that steroids would speed up the recovery... Hope it helps, wish you a speedy recovery

I wish you a full Recovery bro 💯. Set back for a major come back ...

You're still a boss bro the comeback is always stronger than the setback! I'm 23 and am recovering from open heart surgery!!! And I'm still making a comeback to get swollen as fast as I can! I feel your pain and believe in you. Much love

Dear Calum, I'm a fan of you. I follow you from the dawn (Mad Desire)... the first time I saw that video, I was amazed! I was convinced that you were the man who would make Classic Bodybuilding come back! Unfortunately in the last year.. You stopped competing .. You trained shit and started doing idiotic things on RU-vid. Get your feet back on the ground.. head down.. recover yourself and come back as big and classic as you once were in Mad Desire

Be praying for you big guy! Hope you have a speedy recover and can get your strength back. Most important thing you can do during that time is just stay positive. You got your youth still. Catch ya later

Well there goes Olympia 2018 smh.

Cheer up, good man! No sacrifice, no victory! This will make you even stronger. I wish you a good and quick recovery.

everyone saying "oh don't do dumb stuff Calum!!!!!!!!!!" I'm pretty sure he curled that knowing fully how dumb it was so it's not like any of you are teaching him anything

Hate to see this man. Hope you have a quick recovery. Everything happens for a reason. Cheers to bigger and better things.

The amount of yeah's in this video haha

thanks Calum for showing us , what not to do when being a professional , you don't need to do stupid shit ,we still love yah, speedy recovery mate..

Is this gonna turn into a cooking channel now? Cause them cookies looked like shit

Slight bump in the road friend, I'm rooting for a quick and speedy recovery and hope you get your footing back to 100, I think these kinds of things happen to makes us more compassionate people, suffering is a prerequisite for that and makes you appreciate and rely more on individuals. Best wishes! And keep your head up brother.

The video starts at 0:00

Best of luck big man! We all have our bumps and bruises. Some worse than others! Part of the game💪🏻

U cant notice the swelling when ur SWOLE AF

You are going to come back stronger man. I tore my tendons on my left ankle and now it's a lot better.

So much for competing next year :/

I will be devastating without working out at the gym for 6 months, hope you recovered as soon as possible calum.

just keep going like tom platz did that video is so awesome xd

I tore mine completely off and had surgery. I was back training just under 3 months after surgery but very light weight. Its just past month 4 now and im picking up the pace, strength is not 100% yet but i was able to get the size back and also almost 1/2 inch more so I think it was a good thing. I did become depressed just after surgery and lost close to 20lbs so be careful! I've since put those 20 back on plus 8 so I think it was a blessing in disguise. Good luck and listen to the doctors!!

Hope for speedy recovery cal 🤙🏼 catch yaa lataa

A lot of pro body builders sustain injuries. Calum is still very young. His life isn’t over guys holy crap

is it just me or did calum keep saying yup 😂😂

Stay optimistic and be diligent in your rehab for the best results, I tore the distal biceps tendons in both my arms 2 years ago and the recovery was brutal because I was stubborn. All the best man, youll bounce back with time.

Sorry to hear about the bicep, but damn you found yourself a smoke show

I'm so grateful I found this, I'm going through all these vids. I've experienced a dominant arm distal bicep rupture and getting decent recovery advice is proving difficult. Thanks a million for the share!

Gonna lose all kinds of gains

It's not over, just a set back. You got this CAL

Just drink some Kangaroo milk and call it a day mate

Just a scratch man, you'll be back better than ever, this will motivate your hunger for victory more!

At least it was not a click bait ....

Best of Luck Calum hoping everything goes smoothly and you get back at it in 6 months. Dr. seems straight forward and understands your lifestyle.

U dont need to eat the cookies you need to eat her 🤣

I had my tendon on my thumb reattached after I split it in half with a knife. You will be fine. The recovery is the worst part because you have to wait for it to heal. Get feeling better.

Tendon*

Wishing you a speedy recovery. I hope you learn from this and for your sake, stop risking your health and career on stupid stunts. All the best.

We gonna see NORMIE Calum

Aw bro, I did the same thing.. few years back now. It was the worst. Good thing your getting it sorted sooner then later. I couldnt afford to get surgery and just continued on, its left a noticeable dent in my bicep,shoulder and forearm, makes me sad some days but ill get over it. All the best on the speedy recovery man 😊👍🏻

Praying!

All the best for a speedy recovery

those cookies look like tortillas

That sucks! Good luck and a fast recovery so the swolest man in the world can retake his crown!

just hop on the tren m8 youll be good as new kangaroo

Calum the kind of dude that take a bath in the sink.
