arm fatigue
Weary upper extremities
Arm fatigue is the tired, heavy, or weakened sensation in the arms after prolonged use or exertion.
It occurs during repetitive tasks, sustained positions, or strenuous activity: I got arm fatigue halfway through painting the ceiling.
The term appears in contexts from workplace ergonomics to weightlifting to medical discussions of nerve or muscle conditions.
