This guy was in his mid 40s. Pretty buff. He was bench pressing his "max" and felt a pop. The pop turned out to be his pectoralis major tendon. The image is pretty impressive b/c the bruising pretty much outlines his whole pec muscle.
Treatment is long term rest.....sometimes surgery. This guy is a brick layer, but he was more concerned about when he could work out again.
