What is this pain?

[Tezuka Kunimitsu]

I am now starting to demo rackets. A college student suggested me to try the Babolat Pure control Team (98 inch frame). So, I just started swinging the racket in my room because I could not get on the courts that day and I am now feeling this pain in my arm. I only swong the racket 2 times. The pain is right above the inside of my arm above the elbow. For example, if you were to flex your arms and make a 90 degree it is to the right of my elbow. when I push there I feel tendent I think. I just do not know if this is tennis elbow. My arm is very important for me, since I am a major bowler and love tennis. If this is tennis elbow then I do not even want to try the racket on the court.

Thanks for your suggestions and opinoins.

I'm not sure what happened to you, but if you hurt your arm just swinging the racquet without hitting any balls, you can't blame the racquet! You probably just strained something, which can happen ... be careful and give it some rest before you hit any balls.
