Possible Forearm injury

#8481641 - 06/03/08 10:36 PM (18 years, 4 months ago)

As part of my exercise routine I've been doing various exercises for my biceps, however one exercise in particular seems like it is doing damage to my arm rather than helping and I was wondering if anyone had any insight as to whats going on. I do various curl exercises with free weights and am fine, however I feel like it is harder for me to increase the weight when doing just a standing dumb bell curl as opposed to using a bar.

I've stopped doing this as it seems to injure me, but I would do curls using an EZ bar with the typical underhand grip you would use. The problem is after a set or two I would encounter pain in my forearms basically from my elbow to my wrist on the outside of the arm. This isn't the typical muscle tightening feeling or anything as it would last weeks afterwards and would hurt to do certain normal actions with. What exactly is going on here? The only thing I could think of is that my forearms arent strong enough for the weight I am doing. I can do overhand curls with the bar and it doesn't hurt at all, I just thought I'd throw that out there even though its not hitting the same muscles. Also I wasn't putting ridiculous amounts of weight on either, just a bit more than what the two typical dumbells I would use weighed. I really want to do this exercise and idk if I am just improperly doing it or I need to build up strength in my forearm more. Any insight would be much appreciated.
