wrists hurt when curling

[biggernu]

When i do preacher curls or any curls for my bicepts my wrists hurt like hell. Particularly on the outside. I am just coming off a torn tendon, and am only doing really light curls 20 lbs etc, just to keep busy.

use a straight bar when you can. it will give added strenght that you wont get from a curl bar. hense making the pain go away faster. also try to wrap the wrist but dont get used to a wrap cause it will hinder your gains. do reverse grip on a curl bar to add strength to your upper forearms and that will help your wrist as well. good luck and ddont give up.

Thats what caused it i think was the reverse grip on the curled bar. i was pounding my forearms a month ago, and it never really went away. I had to take today off, we got 6 inches of snow.

Well part of it is aty work i sometimes dump 50 - 75 lb bags of shit, into a giant blender, and you have the drop it into the manhole, it does put a great force on the forearms, considering i did over 12,000 lbs in a day.

That's hardcore bro...and I wouldn't worry about the wrists too much, most bodybuilders get that...

Try some weighted Isometric holds in the stretch position. Might try preacher curl holds where your forearm is parellel to the floor.

Probably tendonitis. You should rest it
Do back work for biceps and see if those hurt.

Stop curling for a while.

Also avoid using a straight bars on a preacher bench. I've had nagging pain for a long time doing this
