You should talk to a doctor that's what you should do about that.

It's not that bad... I can bend them, but not all the way up...

you cant curl them or you cant extend them?

if its a tendon tightening problem, doing incline seated curl and going all the way down will help stretch it out. Too many people are only doing a 100 degree arc instead of the full 170. It gives them that meathead look.

Do a tricep work out after a bicep

extensions
curls
french press
seated curls

that way you are getting a stretch in as long as you are fully contracting the tricep.

not being able to curl your arm all the way...ive never heard of that. i would go to a doctor.

i've had that happen to me before. (the arm bending thing). the worst i've ever had it was literally i couldn't bend my arm below 90 degrees for a couple of days. i really over did it. this can definitely happen if...

1. you don't stretch out well before you work out

2. you haven't worked out in a long time and then try to jump in and be superman

it hurts pretty bad too. what i did was i just kept trying to stretch it out all the time...i know its sore, but slowly try to keep stretching it until you can eventually get back to full extension. just make sure you don't rip anything hehehe. anyway, just keep stretching it out and take a couple days off and you'll be good to go.

Point 1. Check.
Point 2. Check.



And when you say stretch, you mean I should try and curl my arm ?

edit: what I'm saying here is that I CAN extend my arms fully, but I can't curl em up all the way, like touch left shoulder with left hand.

I cant tell if he cant extend his arm straight or curl it in a neo-classical "thinker" style

ah ok...i was talking about not being able to extend my arm completely. i've always been able to curl my arm. of course there have been times when the muscle was so full with blood after a workout that i couldn't touch my shoulder, i've never had that stay for any extended period of time. don't know what to suggest.

hehe yeah, i think he mightve torn something bad if thats whats happening. I think he might need a doctor

story about how i got owned this morning....


ok so every couple of days my friend and i go to the old middle school track and get our run on hehe. of course when you see other people on the track you have to pretend you're battling them and outlast them right? right. so today we've been there a good 40 min and this old dude shows up that we've seen a couple of times before. so we're running and he starts up...then he starts to slow down to a walk and we figure he's done. as soon as we even up with him...literally...he starts to jog again, but this time he starts going faster like he is gonna show us up. anyway, we keep to our pace and keep going. so this guy is doing this for only a couple of laps and then he finally gives up and we're like yeah we beat his ass today mutha fucka. anyway, he's walking and we pass him and i just couldn't keep going...i started vomiting all over the track . i mean, how embarassing. here i am thinking i'm this big dude who's owning this guy, and granted we were there a good 4-5miles before he showed up..but here i am throwing up in the grass right in front of him...i got owned
