Hi. I am a new masters swimmer and I am wondering if something I am experiencing happens to a lot of others. Soon after I started swimming regularly with a masters team I started feeling this occasional tightness in my chest. I didn't even think it would have anything to do with swimming, so even though I am only 26, I was worried about my heart and went to a doctor. She said it was probably just stress and did an EKG which turned out fine and told me not to worry. A couple months later, I still feel it once in a while, and I think it might happen more often after hard FLY/*** workouts. I was thinking about going back to the doctor to see if it is a muscular thing, so I was just wondering if it was something common. Anyone had this?

Mark,
Be very careful when stretching in your chair that way. I, too, have the same popping sound and one day took it too far. I now have torn cartilage and recurring pain that will never go away. It's kinda like a dull knife being thrust into the center of the chest and it comes and goes as it pleases.
