I noticed that I got these red pin sized dots on my forearm, neck, armpit, and in front of my thighs. They are not itchy. I weight train so I am not sure if they are petechiae because of the heavy activity?image

They certainly look like petechiae and if you press on them and they stay red then its a positive. If they fade its a rash.
Your weight training may be causing them. I'm sure you know its tiny blood capillaries that are bursting just under the surface of your skin. When they fade they may leave brown marks like freckles.
If you start to feel ill you should see a doctor,as these are also indications of several types of illnesses.
