I don't know if this is an appropriate question for this forum but I wonder if those of you who work out have encountered this problem. I've been taking up golf, and doing a lot of upper body workouts at the gym. My upper body is getting much stronger, but for the last couple of weeks my arms have been falling asleep at night and it's getting worse.
I sleep on my side and I realize it's a bad position but I've never had any problem. Now I wake up every couple of hours with one or the other arm asleep, either the one under me or the one above me. If I move it a bit the feeling comes back.
I don't know if I could change my life-long sleeping position to be on my back. Anyone have that problem after upper body work? Should I change my routine, stretch more, or what?
