It's been a long time since I worked out, let alone posted on this forum! Unfortunately I've had a pretty crap past couple of years with kidney and liver problems. All cleared up and I've finally been getting into shape again.
Saturday I decided to get the weights out. No prizes for guessing I had lost pretty much all my strength. Still, I worked out using some 20lbs dumbells and got a good pump. I was suprised at how much definition my arms still had.
Well, as it goes, two days later I am feeling the soreness. However, my biceps hurt pretty bad. My left one in particular. In fact, I think something is wrong with it as it almost appears to be 'flopping' inwards.
Now I know this isn't uncommon, but when I first saw it, it looked REALLY weird. When I tense it up, it seems to move back into position. Now, have I overworked it and perhaps damaged in someway? Is this maybe swelling? I pushed myself and made sure I did about 4 sets of 20 curls and hammer curls. I didn't think 20lbs would be the kinda weight to hurt me, but just goes to show what happens.
Anyone have any ideas? I am going to lay off for the next few days, maybe until next week in fact, because this is looking freaky.
