I've posted this in the 4 Arm strong threads. I've been using the 4 Arm strong device now for ~3 weeks. I no longer get arm pump. That had nothing to do with my fitness - my fitness hasn't changed and neither has my workouts other than stretching with the 4 Arm Strong device. It had everything to do with muscle myofacia release.
Jeremy Martin suffers from holding on too tight. Not being out of shape.
Surgery is also a cause. So different people suffer in different ways.
Will give to to Ryan Hughes for being a great salesman, thats about it.

Biology is the science that studies living organisms like plants - no one has a tree or a bunch of roses in their forearms.
Physiology studies the mechanical, physical, and biochemical processes by attempting to understand how all of the structures function as a whole.

Either way its not being in shape for the current workload given.
The cause is irrelevant. There are plenty of causes.
As mentioned it can be recreated with ANY bodypart. Forearms are easy because they are small.
Calves are a good one to prove the arm pump theory on.
In fact it will hurt so bad a grown man will scream in pain.
Its the same thing. The biology of it is the same.
My forearms are well developed , yet will pump up very quickly until I have a few rides under my belt.
When my Bi's tri's chest , calves, lats exc pump I can still use them. I've done 100 rep sets where my Bi's were on fire. Yet I can still use my arms.
With bad arm pump from moto I loose it in my hands. As in they can no longer operate the controls.
Mc in 02 crashed in the preseason and got arm pump after that. And that's a guy who never had it his whole career. It's not that the muscle can't handle the workload.
Also...all those muscles being used are incorporating others as well.
It is almost impossible to isolate back or chest without incorporating lats and shoulders.
You just said your arms pump when you havent ridden for a while, yet are well developed. You said that.
Great....However they are not in shape for the workload you've given them at that time.
Being fit has nothing to do with it. Read the prior sentence.
You can take a guy with massive calves and put the guy to a crawl.
Same with a guy with popeye forearms. You can make him not be able to pick up a pencil.
Once you underatand the biology of arm pump, its pretty easy to see the problem and its very easy to replicate.
I am surprised to see so many negative comments about "supplement dont work". I am far to be an expert in that, I dont take it anymore, all I know is the right combo work if taken as an everyday lifestyle.
Armpump is directly related to fascia and more commonly known as compartment syndrome.
Chronic exertional compartment syndrome is an exercise-induced condition.
This happens when the pressure in the muscles increases to extreme levels during exercise and thus creating pressure which creates a decrease in blood flow to the affected area which leads to a deprivation of oxygen to the muscles.
The fascia layer that defines the compartment does not stretch during this period, small amounts of bleeding into the compartment will cause pressure to increase. So basically speaking there is a increased intra-compartmental pressure in the interstitium over its capillary perfusion pressure, due to the accumulation of necrotic debris and haemorrhage.
Those are 2 very different cause of the pain and discomfort felt and what you are talking about.
No, once again it is not the same thing. I never studied biology only physiology when it came to human anatomy and performance.
Im not trying to make fun of you, just trying to help educate you here.
Had a girlfriend that used me.
Wow. OK. Keep trolling. Smh.
If you were standing here it would be easy to make you not walk and writh in pain, but keep trolling the trolls.
Pit Row
Same issue. They have the fascia release for the calves just as they do for the forearms.
I have heard yes and no and it seems very hit or miss as far as results go.
Pencil pushers have the arm pump problem.
If you do have a treatment like Lyno it will need to be continuous and not a once off.
