penisarm 

The phenomenon when you're using your arms a lot while climbing/bouldering and they start filling up with blood and becoming really hard. Also, the veins become more visible.
This route was really exhausting.. I have to wait before I can go on, I really suffer from penisarms!

-"dude, I just finished this route and now my arms hurt and it's hard to open and close my hands, what's wrong with me?"
-"chill, that's just due to penisarm syndrome while climbing. It'll go away in a few minutes."
-"ah thanks man, that makes sense."
