When you just play and have pain in your fore arms...

Re: When you just play and have pain in your fore arms...

Keep this up and you will end up with tendinitis. You are stretching and causing micro tears in the tendons that reach from your elbow to your hand, which leads to inflammation and compression on the nerves, especially the median nerve.

The only reason i know all this is because i have tendonitis currently and am having to take a break from gaming to let my arms and wrists heal. I also know how hard it is to force yourself to take a break, especially if you are improving well, as i was before this happened to me, but your arms/wrists are more important than your improvement, and no you are not invisible, the more you play through the pain, the more damage you will do.

lol yes 2 and 3 on the numpad. but using 23 on the regular numbers with zx feels like a dog sitting pretty

Anyone ended up having shoulder pain issues, but not anything hands related from playing?

Try not to tense up so much or find a more comfortable position.

When i would relax i would last longer. (ooh Sexual)

Hey I have the same problem as you. I think it is just because we are new players (both are profiles were created about a month ago) so it will probably take some time to build up the stamina. I started off playing about a 100 games a day bc of how addicting this game is but after a couple weeks my hands hurt pretty bad. I took a few days off and now only play about 25-50 games a day and my hands/forearms feel minimal pain. So yeah pretty much what everyone else said lol take a break or play less games per day. If you play spread maybe try different setups, I'm currently using ZX23 and it feels pretty comfortable to me.

I've actually have two years of experience of VSRG's, but some of those points still apply to different players

Re: When you just play and have pain in your fore arms...

I've been really sloppy on my stamina training, i don't know exactly what files i should play for stamina, it's funny how in JS getting a SDG in it will most likely still give me burns. so that has been a bad thing for me in harder files, i can do them but my stamina always pulls me down when playing, i was hoping if i pushed myself harder i'd actually end up with good stamina (ps i'm the guy who can 0.9 SDG serious shit but can't pass it on 1.0 due to stamina) :<

Re: When you just play and have pain in your fore arms...

No that's not what i meant, i meant the reason why i push myself because my stamina is not good, i end up with burns on files that i can FC - single digit great
and files what i seemingly suppose to ''93-96%'' i always get held down by my stamina so i thought in order to get a good stamina to maintain my performance on these files which i'm suppose to do well is to push myself, the pain part is what bothered my so i've been wondering about people's thoughts on that

I get more elbow pain than wrist pain from this game and have no idea why
My elbows feel cranky after every session

Building stamina is nice and all, but don't rush into it. You don't run a marathon before first building stamina through a 5K, and so on

Re: When you just play and have pain in your fore arms...

Actually that's the thing xD i played from 1 pm to 7: pm, i don't know if i should stop now xD as for songs that i play, i play any song i can sometimes i can AA sometimes i can FC and maybe SDG, but that's about it, funny how i feel stingy pain in my arms but i just can't stop playing even if it's been 7 and a half hours ;w;

Have you considered going for 500mil in a day? Seems you're well on your way to building up the necessary stamina! (Also, play songs that are about the same density for most of the way through it.)
