Well yesterday in Gym we were doing the presidental tests for push-ups. I did 51, which is usually my average. All yesterday my upper arms hurt, but today it's worse, whenever I move the slightest, my upper back and chest muscles start to ache. Also, my ribs are fragile as forget, not only can I bend them again but they hurt this morning, and today we did the sit-up test, which loving hurt, really bad.

Anyhow, you guys ever done a lot of push-ups, pull-ups, sit-ups, etc. and have muscle aches for a few days?

Ladyboy means other things than your hair length.

Arnold would say "girlyman".

This happens to me a lot. In the beginning of the year in my PE class we had to do a test to see how many push-ups and sit-ups in a minute or so. I tried to overshoot the push ups and I did like 40-60 I cant remember but it was around there. The next day the muscle around my armpit to my elbow hurt like a bitch.

If I were you i'd do low arm movement and ice your arm.

Didn't the teachers tell you not to overdo yourself?

Nice. 45-50 is my average. I'm more of a strength person than endurance. I can push a lot at a time, but not so much when it comes to push ups over and over again.
