    Had this shit a week ago.
    Almost made me stop workout, especially after squats and ring dips, took some aspiring and persisted because I'm a moron that doesn't value his life.
    I have a feeling that it could be somehow related to the increased tension or impingement in the neck.

    Had one a couple years ago so bad (it lasted an hour before 3 ibuprofen and 2 tylenol kicked in) I went to the ER and got a CT scan and spinal tap. Everything came back fine, but it's scary as frick bros. Had to take two weeks off from working out completely before it wouldn't come back from minor exertion.

    Squats to failure on the last set is what did it for me. Never again. I was also taking caffeine at the time, which I suspect may have contributed as well, so I stopped that too.

    This sounds like a thunderclap headache which is a medical emergency. Sudden/immediate onset severe headaches raise concern about a subarachnoid haemorrhage or other serious pathology like RCVS. You should get yourself checked out if it happens.

        "exertion headache" is a diagnosis of exclusion (ie. after extensive work up including imaging and sometimes lumbar puncture), not a description of the character of a headache (ie. thunderclap)

          well, mr science anon, I don’t get bad headaches like this ever. Exclusion indicates this is 100% from the exercise.

      Yes definitely sounds like a subarachnoid haemorrhage by him sitting down & talking about his exertional headache on IST rather than having a seizure & going into a coma. Thanks for the input, doc.

    i had this a couple years ago. i was doing push ups and really straining on the last rep when it felt like a bomb went off in my head. i was in the park by the pull up bar when it happened so i walked ~1km home in excruciating pain, tried to take a bath but the pain was still so bad i couldn't lie down so i went out to the living room and asked my mum to call an ambulance. legit thought i was dying. want to the ER and got an mri but nothing showed up so i went home and didn't exercise for weeks out of fear.
    i had a similar incident a few months later when doing inverted rows on rings but this time i felt like a twinge in my neck and i stopped before it exploded into a full blown headache again. i haven't had any incidents since and i think that's because i have improved my neck and upper back posture a lot since then. my theory is that it is probably caused by a pinched nerve in the neck or something like that.

    this happened to me when i was trying to max out my pull ups every day
    felt like my brain was being banged like a fricking drum
    thought i was gonna die
    still went the next day like a moron but the second i jumped on the bar, before i even did anything it kicked in again
    took a break for a month
    went from being able to do 2 pull ups to 20 that year though. good year.

      What was your routine to increase how many pull ups you could do? Just do them every day? What about on pull/back days?

        It was during peak covid so no gym.
        All i did was pull ups, dips and pushups pretty much daily.
        I focused on pull ups and just went balls deep every day until i couldnt do any anymore.
        Honestly pretty moronic. Later on, after the head explosion i started getting more rest days and thats when i started progressing a lot more.

    I have never had a headache.
    I don't understand brainlets.
    HOW can your brain hurt? Is it weak from a lack of exercise?
