Accidents happen… and unfortunately, former IFBB Pro bodybuilder/fitness figure Seth Feroce tore a tricep due to one recently. It definitely wasn’t a serious accident as he only tore a tricep riding a dirt bike as he explained on Instagram. But for someone who loves to train, well, it’s going to suck for a bit.
Seth Feroce is a popular fitness YouTuber who used to compete in bodybuilding professionally. But he shares amazing information on the subject of general fitness on his channel. Not to mention, he’s also a small business owner, and proud American involved with many different and exciting endeavors.
But his recent injury was definitely a bummer so he took to social media with some photos and the story of how it happened. We provided the text below the post and you can scroll through to see a few of his photos, including the ones of him and his doctor who competed alongside him at the 2009 Nationals.

This is what Feroce wrote on his post…
“The Dreaded Mirror Pic with a Wrapped Arm…… Yes, I tore my triceps today doing dumb shit!
Blowing off steam today with the guys, something that is typical after a Release. We unwind and LIVE a little, after some intense days/weeks of work ! .
I was riding the dirt bike, took a spill, braced myself and “POP” went the triceps! .
I call an old friend @drvictorprisk (IFBB Pro Bodybuilder, Orthopaedic Surgeon, Business Owner, you get it! #HWMF)\Took me right in, did the examination and said “Yep, You tore it. We are going to get you put back together and healthy. Don’t beat yourself up. We got this!” Made me feel much more at ease. Hes good at what he does.
Dr. Prisk and I competed at 2009 Nationals together and guest posed together years ago. .
So I will need the surgery and that is going to get scheduled soon and then start recovering right away.Set backs are gonna happen. This is my first big injury so it will be an experience/feeling I have never had. I’m not expecting it to be easy but I’m also not going to let this push me around. I will stay strong minded and have a great support system of family and friends. .
So we will experience this together!
I will be unfiltered about this whole process as it progresses.”

“🚨Warning!! Very Graphic Pics!! 🚨 .
The Surgery was a success! Now it is time for recovery.@drvictorprisk said the years of wear, tear and abuse were evident in there. But I should have a Full recovery!
Follow the recovery program Seth!! Lol .
They grabbed some pics while they were in there fixing me up. I don’t know exactly what it is we are looking at in there. I know it is my right elbow. Haha . Later this week at my next appointment I will have a full explanation of what exactly happened in there. Pins, anchors, stitches. I was a little loopy when he explained everything. .
But Again….THANK YOU!!! To you all for the support! ⚒🙏
Keep Fuckin Shit Up!Thank you to @drvictorprisk and his team.
And my way better half @hannahgentile for taking care of me! ❤️❤️One Day at a Time!! .
Back to Fuckin Shit up in no time!!”
Feroce should be recovered in no time so he can get back to training and kicking butt. Injuries are an unfortunate reality but thankfully, his accident wasn’t worse than what it was, and we’re sure he’ll take this minor inconvenience and get through it with a positive mindset.
