dont squeez the bar so tight when curling or etc and it will go away.

Ha, welcome to my world bro. Sounds like tendonitis. I have the exact same pain in my forearms, and also pain in my elbows. From what I understand it's from the tendons/ligments not being able to keep up with the muscle growth. Try to avoid doing straight barbell curls or any other activity that causes extreme pain in that area. I had to switch to doing ez curl bar exercises, and that helped somewhat. Also try taking 2-3 asprin before you lift, basically you have to just train through the pain. If you try taking a few weeks off it will go away, but as soon as you go back into the gym it will come right back.
Pretty shitty situation isn't it?
Peace,

Tape it up

Getting one of those dolls may give your forearm enough rest to recover.

I think it might be hard to find a girl that is comfortable with you owning one of those dolls especially if she thinks its watching you have sex.

I used to tape my arm when I had splints the muscle can tear away from the bone when squeezing things too hard. Relieving the stress with tape will allow it to heal. Also try using the machine as opposed to free weights to alleviate the need to squeeze so hard. It took about 4 weeks for my arm to feel normal again.

those r tendon/ligament type probs bro, u want to lighten the weights for a while, and definately lighten or even stop the exercises that cause direct pain.take some advil to take down the inflamation and maybe even ice it if it gets really bad.

I have the same problem. Had to cut out bicep excercises altogether for a couple of weeks.

there is absolutely no reason to stop training or even stop doing particular exercises. 10 minutes of A.R.T will solve the problem. do a search under my name and ART. there are plenty of threads. also check out www.activerelease.com.

Ive got the same problem, not only that,but it is starting to hurt on the outside of my elbow, on the bone, it mostly hurts to do hammer or reverse grip barbell curls. These are my favorites for brachiallis, too bad.....just find the exercises and positions that cause the least pain, thats what i do.-WULF
