It may be related to breathing. It's possible that the muscles that control your diaphragm and the supporting ligaments aren't used to working so hard. It could also be from improper breathing. (I know that sounds funny, but it's possible to breathe wrong. I know 'cause I've done pretty much everything wrong at one time or another. And I've heard I still wear the wrong shoes.) Anyhow, if breathing is the problem, those pains are more common on the right side because of the organs on the right side. You can get in the habit of stretching as far as you can to each side to stretch all those ligaments before you work out. Also, make sure your breaths aren't too shallow. Don't give up, though! It'll get easier.
Goose, if I got all that wrong, go easy on me.
