Beginner here. I did some dumbbell pullovers 8 days ago and my arms have felt very sore when I bend them behind my back/head since last Sunday.
I guess I got an inflammation or something but it should be gone now?
What do?
PS I certainly did not rep too hard, I didn't even break a sweat since I just wanted to TRY the dumbbell pullover.
>I guess I got an inflammation or something but it should be gone now?
It's called DOMS. You're losing your muscle virginity. Lurk moar

DOMS huh. From what I see here, it's supposed to be gone in 48 hours indeed.
So I've broken something or wut?

Not necessarily. Just make sure you're getting enough nutrition.
Drink more water.

In my case they got serious after 48 hours and the next 48 hours were the worst.

Lifted for 3y straight, took an 8 months break to travel, just came back last week and lifted baby weight.
Am having DOMS for 5 days now and wanted to shoot myself for half of it. it's normal, just keep stretching

It lasts over a week, and you only get it the first time for those muscles unless unless you stop lifting for a few months again.
