Why Am I Experiencing Painful Muscles And Weakness In Arms?

Hello , over the past few weeks I have had pain and noticeable weekness in both arms when lifting anything even a cup of coffee. I havent had any injuries or trauma that I am aware of. It seems very odd that I would have the same problem with both arms at the same time. It feels like a pain in my muscles or tendons when I lift anything but no pain whatsoever when not lifting something. Any ideas?
