Orthopaedic Surgeon, Joint Replacement 's  Response
Usually tingling and numbness in arm is because of nerve compression in neck. but in your case, that might not be the reason. Other cause can be compartment syndrome which is seen during exercises because of tight compartment. It needs clinical evaluation.
It may also be some other pathology. Diagnosis is hard because you have not given your details, duration of problems. Plus clinical info is not available.
