do you warm up good or just jump right in

try doing a couple sets of 20 with really light weight

get the blood in there then go for it

seems like the most of the time i get sore in the arms like that is

when i randomly lift something heavy not in the gym and didn't warm up

Thought you were talking about the tendons at first.. but same thing Happened to me once in high school, it was because as said above, too much weight too soon.. just go easier it’ll get easier.

I just watched a video on DOMS it sounds similar to that. How do you deal with DOMS


You just deal with it, it will ease up once your body is used to lifting again but getting sore even then is normal.

Its nothing to get all worked up over. It happens to everyone new or coming back to lifting. My whole body hurt for weeks when i started back about a year ago. Yeah it hurts, but it also lets you know how slack ass youve been and this is your punishment.
