Re: A Gym / Muscle Question
It's tendonitis. This is a very common problem among us rock climbers, as well. It's when your bicep muscles have been worked and are disproportionately stronger than your triceps/eg. you didn't do any tricep excersizes. It causes a stinging, and a feeling of not wanting to straighten your arm all of the way. Luckily, the fix is very simple - do something to strengthen your triceps. The old fashioned rock climber tendonitis fix? Pushups - works every time. Dips work, as well. Just do a set every time you do bicep excersizes.
Now that you're working out, remember - protein and carbs are VERY important to healing and muscle growth! Eat a lot of both.
