Try to exercise a bit less. Overdoing it can l eave the muscles a little shaky. In addition, it cane be caused by anxiety. I sometimes have a feeling of weakness in my inner thighs snd inner arms. I have mostly learned to ignore it. It usually lasts half a day and then goes away for a few months.

Hi Sophia! Definitely. When I am anxious I can become lightheaded and my arms and legs go weak.

Thank You so much for responding

Yes definitely anxiety have it all the time accept pay no attention to it . I have it a lot when anxious .

i began exercising a year ago, my arm muscle started getting weak at times and easy off at rest, i went to see doctors but everything was fine, every time i over work my arm it gets weak, no heart pain or chest issues just weakness, but i started taking clolophyll plus guarana and it helped me a lot.... plus stem cells,.... hope you get better too... much love🥰
