Hello,
I've upped my reps on a simple 3 exercise upper body routine; push-ups, dumbbell upward row & dumbbell shoulder press. I typically do 3 sets to positive failure. Now I'm doing 5 sets. One day into this increase and I have some pain I wanted to get some feedback on. Nothing else hurts except this one area on my upper-inner forearm. Both arms, yet the right hurts a bit more. Feels like a bruise. At first I thought it was a non-muscualr tendon or other related issue. It's dull and isolated to a small spot. Maybe it's just my muscle in that area that's been worked hard. I've included some pics so you can see what spot I'm talking about. I skipped weights today cause I don't want to continue to push if I need to take a break. I don't know if it's safe to push through the pain. Thanks for the feedback.
