You work out

No, I traded half my lifetime pay for the perfect physique.

carefull, I had this happen last cycle and once I got off it got real bad.

Chances are its not tendonitis but tendonosis, most times Dr.s mis diagnos.

Anything i should be doing besides taking it easy?

I hate to get up in this shit and look like I'm bragging and all, but if I lifted weights at all right now, I could very easily curl the 20lb DBs.
VERY easily. For at least one set of 10 or 12. At least.

Make sure you keep active as doing nothing is the worse thing you can do.

I would ease off on the weight abit as that is a lot of stress on the tendons in that area.

Congrats man....I top out at the 65s....might get 75s for a few if I did them first in the workout, but that seems scary to me. Injuries suck.

your bicep muscles are fairly weak and not designed to take a whole lot of weight that why people rip them all the time the only bicep excerise i do directly are hammer curls they get big enough from doing bench squats and deads

 

[PIGEON-RAT]

yeah man that's your tendons

get accustomed to heavier weights before going nuts with them, you'll be glad you did

i had tendon/wrist pain for a long fuckign time because i made bicep strength increases much too quickly for my tendons to keep up

shit hurt doing everything requiring grip

 

[biteme]

I get a little nervous going up that high... i feel like any breakdown in form and i could tear something.

I also got this fucking pain in the muscle of my forearm running along the bone... anyone get that shit?

I like curling more than most people at my college gym can bench... it makes me feel pretty.

Did your back get sore from swinging the weight up.

Stretching........before after and during......

The one I find works the best for tendonitis......or some thing that feels like it (cause odds are you don't have it) is the full arm bi stretch...(arm against pole, straight out) rolled into the finger stretch...extending all of your fingers to the pole to continue the stretch......I'm sure there's a name for these stretching exercises........but I'm not one of the cool guys with my A.C.E. certification........so let's just call em' that........
