I’m a total newb to weight lifting. I’m 40; I been training MuaY Thai and the coach added weigh lifting to the program now.
I had zero weightlifting base or flexibility or whatever it’s called when you lift even for a few weeks then the muscles don’t get as sore as they did the first few times ever.
on the first day of it he forced me to do too may sets and high of weight and now my biceps are so tight and sore I can’t even straighten an arm without pulling it straight with the other arm and it feels like my bicep is about to rip in half.
I don’t feel any pain in the elbow joint or when moving it. no sharp pain anywhere. This feels like the soreness when you get a good pump after a long time off but to an extreme level.
did I actually injure myself or not?
what are the best ways to recover this? I’ve been taking ibuprofen, ice and muscle relaxers.
