Spotting after heavy lifting

I've recently increased the weight I'm lifting and have noticed some blood, like early period type, afterwards. Has anyone experienced this? I've recently had a pelvic ultrasound (prior to change in exercise routine) and all was well. I'm very used to serious exercise and all that's changed is the weight I'm lifting - moved from full body work outs with 15 reps to split days working to failure by 10 reps

No. I would get that checked out.

I ended up with an anal fissure a few years ago when I was doing a failure set/one rep max. I actually felt it go. It was hideous - I really shocked myself.

I still do a lot of seriously heavy lifting but I'm so much more aware of my technique.

It took about a week to stop bleeding completely
