What exactly hurts? Shoulders, wrists, arms, back(Upper or lower)?

Search Youtube.com for proper paddling techniques. The first time I went out for 8 hour on the water my arms were killing me, shoulders, arms, and wrists. Someone on this board suggested checking out the push/pull method of paddling, and I'm telling you once I learned the right way to paddle, it made a world of difference.
