Crikey, didn't see that in the press release.
I'm just wondering if the unexplained "feeling run down" towards the end of SX and the now "arm pump" after a few good rounds of MX is him fighting through issues related to 11 arm surgeries. I know nothing but if it is an issue he likely wouldn't talk about it... yet. I could be way off base.

I was thinking the same. The human body is awesome. Although, it can only take so much.

Dude it was Arm pump. I got down voted for saying it was on page one and they literally said it on the broadcast.

Maybe you guys didn’t watch the broadcast. The announcer lady went to Honda tent and one of his Arms was getting arm pump but my guess is both. They literally said it was Arm pump.

So you guys don’t use the baby arm slang then?

Pretty much the exact same thing Gary Semics posted a few weeks ago and most people laughed at him. Who's laughing now?

Except Gary was tactful enough to leave the whole "baby arm" crap out of his post.

I agree with Gary that Ken may have come back too hard too soon. And just because he is winning doesn't mean he won't crater at some point either physically or mentally. I think one important aspect to Ken though is he has, as far as I can tell through his instagram, a rewarding life outside of motorcycle racing. He loves his wife. He loves his friends. He loves his family. And he loves his dog. And he has a great relationship with his fans and his competition(probably in part because he races fair). But I still worry he will have problems down the line, especially physically, so hopefully he plays it smart and saves a little in the tank.

The only person you are allowed to call baby arm is RC16, call Kenny T-rex arm!

If I had to guess I'd say he was close to a heat stroke last week second moto and felt the aftermath of that today.
Could be something completely different but I don't believe in armpump. Why would that suddenly be an issue at round 6?
If he was “close” to a true heat stroke, it would’ve been even worse of an outcome. Heat exhaustion, I agree with.

Obviously, WW Ranch back to back with the Wick wasn't what he really needed. I'm sure he's over it already.

When is RED BUD?
