A Gym / Muscle Question
I went to the gym on Monday for the first time in ages. I did the normal warmup on bike crapola for 10minutes. Moved around the machines. Got to the arm curl one. Did 20/30 repetitions on a low weight setting to make sure the muscles were 'warmish;' then gradually upped the weight. Did about 4/5 sets of 10/15 reps. Went around and did osme more stuff.Then returned and did a few more sets on the arm curl machine.
Next day i wake up and im unable to full straighten my right arm. It hurts like ****. The pain is coming from the joint 'area' (just above the joint actually) on the inside of the arm. I suppose its the bicep but very lowest part of bicep.
This morning i wake up and whilst my left arm yesterday was 'somewhat achey' this morning it hurts like **** too.
I can no longer 'straighten' both my arms without pain.
Now im hoping that silversmoke or someone will just say 'dont be a pussy. its just normal muscle pain because you havnt worked out for awhile'.
However im worred i may have ****ed both my arms. Whilst using the arm curl machine i noticed that my arm had 'slipped' its position and i wasnt rotating inline with where the machine itself rotated (i know this is something you should do to prevent injury and strains etc).
At the time i didnt feel anything in the gym. When i left my arms felt knackered but so did every other part of me.
So
Have i torn things or is this just a normal 'will go away' in time kind of thing. I ask because ive never not been able to straighten my goddamn arms before.
