Hello Everyone!
I'm new to the site so I'll introduce myself first and apologize in advance if I use the wrong category for my threads. I'm Andrew, 25 years old, boxed through high school and had some decent training by some guys who knew a thing or two.
So I have been back in the gym for 5 weeks now and have been training pretty hard. When I'm hitting the bag everything feels great. But when I'm done my arm starts to kill me. They hurt like hell around the elbow joint but I can't pinpoint where the pain actually is. It feels like it could be my bicep or tricep right near the elbow. It's a constant tight soreness feeling like you threw out your arm in baseball. I'll take ibuprofen and after a hour it'll subside (ibuprofen or not matter of fact).
The weirdest part is that I can still throw any punch, shadow box or heavy bag, and it won't hurt any worse or less. It could be my technique but I'm pretty confident it's not. Maybe it's just muscles getting use to working at such a high endurance rate again? Any advice would be great!
Thanks!!
