What is the most ridiculous thing that has made you incredibly sore?

I deep cleaned my apartment the other day. The kind where you empty all the closets, gather clothes for good will, scrub the trash bins, etc. My hamstrings have never been this sore. So embarrassing. Commiserate with me. Anyone can't swim because of late night bowling or pull a muscle from neighborhood bocce?

I pulled an intercostal muscle throwing a football around with my brother-in-law. I used to be a man before I became an endurance athlete.

On more than one occasion, I've pulled a muscle when sneezing.

I yawned and stretched and pulled a back muscle right before the 2009 IMLP. I mean 2 days before. Need ART and lots of TLC to get my swim stroke back.

haha you were doing "stripper deadlifts" while picking up stuff i guess?
I don't have a "most ridiculous thing" but a "most ridiculous sore" story.
I did my first crossfit workout last november and did ring rows... the next FIVE DAYS i couldn't straighten my arm and was walking around like C3PO. it was ridic.

Did a 1/2 mile of burpee broad jumps (2x around a track) to support a friends workout. Took me out for 5 days to recover, have never been so sore in my life..... every muscle in my body hurt.

I threw my low back into spasms trying to snuff out of wicked large fart. Didn't see my gramma out of the corner of my eye and not wanting to scare her I attempted an abort.....bless her little heart. Turns out me lurching like someone had clamped my man beans in a vice when my back freaked out scared her more than the aborted butt burp.

You wear one shoe that slides on the ice and push yourself along with the other leg. Its a blast but but 2 hours of that left me unable to walk for the next 2 days.

I got a deep muscle pull (or partial tear) in my ass, and a 75% rotator cuff tear in a trapeze class last year. :0 Caused me to have to drop out of the Goofy Challenge marathon; so far shoulder is holding up, but we'll see if it lasts through tri season.

Hit a pothole about 2 miles into a sprint race (12 mile bike) and as you can see my bars turned to about a 45 degree angle. I was torn between riding as is, and stopping to straighten out. I chose to leave along and did the whole ride as pictured. I had the worst cramping in my intercostals towards the end of the bike but it wasn't too bad during the run. I was sore for a few days but the picture is priceless. I still managed a top 5 bike split and 6th O/A!

As an office get together we paid 5 bucks for all you can bowl during lunch. I probably bowled 10-12 games in an hour and a half. The next day the whole right side of my body was sore. My shoulder and lats were so sore I couldn't raise my right arm above my head.... how do you get sore from bowling.... lol.

I just returned from a trip to Vegas with my wife and some friends. We drank all day and hit nightclubs (not strip clubs) all night.
15 hours of straight boozing on Saturday.(Started at the pool at noon and stopped at 3:45 am). It is now Monday, and I an sore in so many places. Mostly my head and liver, but for some reason my ribs and hamstrings are in pain.
I kinda feel like I did an Ironman again. But, I don't think I even smelled this bad after Vineman last year.
I spent enough money that I could have bought a new set of Zipp 808 FCs.

I'll do you one better: slow, gentle, controlled lean to receive a kiss = horrible pulled muscle in ribs
Moral of the story: love and endurance sports do not mix. :P

Out of town on a business trip, hotel's pool was closed for renovations ( and I had picked this hotel specifically because they had a 25 yd pool!). So I said, F It, and did a full upper body weight circuit (moderately heavy) in the decently appointed gym. First time in a gym in probably two years.
Next day, Could. Not. Brush. Hair. Could barely even feed myself.
Later!

Pulled a muscle under my butt bowling, 6 months to heal completely. Lifted a tree branch and foot completely cramped/knotted. 2 months before that went away.

Playing "chase" with the 17-month old. I spent an hour hunched over chasing him and being chased and then I couldn't actually straighten back out. Had to lay on the ground until I could get my back straight again. And then this morning my hamstrings and abs were screaming at me. :) Well worth it though.

OH man, we got our Wii and the next days my arms were super sore from our initial marathon session
we were screwing around and jumping off of a cliff into the water. It was small enough that there really wasn't a risk of serious injury but tall enough that you had to be careful to hit the water in good orientation. I over rotated a front flip and ended up belly flopping good enough to knock the wind out of me. The next morning it felt like I got hit by a truck and either bruised or mildly cracked a couple ribs. It sucked.
That and the day after my first time snowboarding

35 sets of squats (deep), starting with 315 and eventually dropping to 225. Buddy of mine I was training with then went over to the leg extension. I went home for a nap.

Just you wait until he's got a bike with training wheels and you need to push him around and correct his attempts at self-piloting. You'll be hunched over, but not completely, just enough to hurt like a motherf**** for hours after. I'm so glad my boys can both ride a bike independently now.
