As long as you can stretch them back out straight, you should be fine.

I managed to hurt myself when I went back to the gym for the first time in a long, long time doing curls. Guess I overdid it and was straining too much with too much weight and not heeding signs to back off. At the end of the day, my arms naturally rested at a 90 degree angle and it was physically impossible for me to straighten them back out. Also, they hurt like a mofo for a week as it felt like I was doing one continual curl, even at the "resting" position of them being bent. Severely straining your bicept = not fun. Driving was a pain in the ass too for that week.

I learned my lesson, if I've been away from working out for a while, I need to ease myself back into it as my muscles aren't the same as they were when I stopped.

On the bright side, I could do the robot very well during that week.
