https://community.usms.org/swimming/f/general/12868/bicep-tricep-painI did a pretty intense weight workout last week then swam the next two days. Now, I&#39;m having a burning pain in my tricep/bicep area (fortunately it&#39;s not the shoulder) when I bend my arm like the start of the crawl. I wonder if anyone has experienceden-USTelligent Community 12https://community.usms.org/thread/202347?ContentTypeID=1Tue, 29 Aug 2017 07:37:59 GMT3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:ee06b55e-c6f9-46b2-ac4c-2d278ab58486DeniseMWThanks, Kenny. It feels like a pinched nerve or a tear, but I tried to ice it and took an anti inflammatory and nothing helped. I&#39;m hoping rest is the answer but it&#39;s kind of discouraging since I was just starting to increase my laps and it only hurts with my arm bent and elbow pointed up.<div style="clear:both;"></div>https://community.usms.org/thread/202340?ContentTypeID=1Mon, 28 Aug 2017 06:36:44 GMT3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:d362e995-edfb-4619-9937-e638dd7d6432Kenny100I had a similar situation with my elbow caused by too much heavy lifting. I took about one week off from swimming and lifting; then after I resumed swimming I cut back my lifting to one to two sessions per week of lighter weight but more reps. I still have some pain but am attempting to listen to my body more and adjust appropriately. Sent from my iPhone using lll<div style="clear:both;"></div>
