I was doing some hammer curls the other night, when I noticed at the end of the excercise I had a large lump in the middle of my forearm. It's gotten smaller and it doesn't hurt. Anyone know what the hell it is.

It could have been a pump weird pump, it could be that something exploded [ok, not THAT extreme] and caused some swelling, I have no idea.

If it's not giving you problems, dont worry about it. If it constantly happens, maybe you should get it checkout out.

The day after, I had such pain on my entire arm that I couldn't even grip a pencil without having pain shoot through my arm. Now I am fine, but, just have a slight lump. I want to continue curling soon, but, don't want to risk hurting doing more damage

I get something like that with a good bicep workout... it looks like a bump under the skin. With mine, it's like a vein, where it goes down if you push on it.

Do you stretch and warm-up before lifting?

 

[SoFarSoGoodSoWhat]

No, I didn't do any warm-up stretches. I should've, but, my problem came from over dueing it. I was already tired as it was, so I did about 10-15 more reps then I should've. When I set the dumbells down, I had this massive bump on my arm. I was like wtf. It wasn't black and blue or anything, but, rather weird...I don't know what it is.
