    greetings fellow esbians

    i got a problem and was hoping if anyone could give me any advice. basically the problem is whenever i start bicep curling weights 20kg+ i start to get a slight pain in my left forearm but after i finish bicep curling it goes away after about 15 mins. is there anyway to get this pain to go away while am bicep curling or is it just one of them things?

    I am really not the one to ask, but I will suggest-not saing it's the right thing. To try those machines I think they're called fee motion, where there is a handle attached to a weight stack in the machine itself. That would be my best guess.

    Strengthening your forearms would help. I usually do forearm twist with the dumbbells or forearm curls for high reps. Remember you can't curl weight that you can't grip. But strong forearms helped me develop a more Potent punch, it didn't neccesarily give me more power it helps me "keep" the generated force going through the target....

    could u not call us "esbians" i thought it said something about a lesbian lol.

    but to answer ur question. i might have something to do w/ the way ur wrist is. try 2 things
    first, try to use a lesser weight and see if it hurts. keep going to a low weight until the pain is gone. see if ur form or nething is wrong
    2nd, try to stop doing them for a week or so and see if u feel better.

    hope i could help

    I used to get that too. The simple answer is dont do it if it hurts. Strengthen the forearm with other routines or use lighter weights when you curl with a slower action and excellent form.

    Well, it could either be he needs to strengthen his forearms, or he is possibly injured. If you don't think you're injured learn to strengthen your forearms.

    And make sure you're not overtraining your biceps. You WILL lose speed even if your biceps get stronger if you do not keep your full flexibility and range of Motion. Remember the Bicep is the Main muscle that Stops punches from extending and if your Biceps are as tight as wheel rubber your punches will come out slower and you could EASILY injure your biceps from training. **** if you are training on the bag and in the ring hard your biceps will automatically become stronger.[For me anywayz]

    You should do this under the supervision of expert as he can suggest you whats wrong with it during your exercise session only.
