Ok this isn't to much of an injury but I want to share my pain.
8 days ago "Friday" i did triceps. I worked them hard like I normally do. They started to ach on Saturday then by Sunday I was in complete pain.
Then yesterday "friday" I come to working them again. Oh my god I never had pain like this. Was so painful I couldn't even do an exercise.
Burning and shooting pain in both arms but most worst is the left arm. its constantly throbbing all the time. :tear:
Anyone else had this?
Sounds like you overtrained them... What's routine like?
Do arms once a week mate "every Friday". Changing exercise every week.
3x biceps
3x triceps
I use as much weight as I can, aiming for 8-12 reps.
Today they feel a lot better i must say :7up:
How long have you been training?Quote:

I have been training around 1 year properly. 4 times a week with a high calorie diet and protein shakes. I have been boxing 10yrs and a keen runner so was around 11st 7lbs at xmas gone "stopped boxing now". now 13st 6lbs with bf around 12% at a guess.
any suggestions fire away regards the workout.
Thanks again.
EDIT "old thread with some stats which i need to update"

Your workout split looks alright to me... Maybe instead of always doing 4 sets of 8 -12 reps of the heaviest weight possible, try mixing it up and dropping the weight down, but doing 25-30 reps and 3 sets per exercise... Should give you a better pump and with the increased tendon/ligament strain... If you're recovering now though, may not be necessary
Thanks for your advice mate.,Quote:
