I have pain in my forearms after doing barbell curls for a week everyday (stopped doing them - too bad because I finally saw some improvement on my curls).
It's been a week of skipping gym every other day and going back to dumbbell curls to stop the pain but the pain always come back.
Any way to speed up recovery? I don't care that much about the pain to be honest but it makes weaker on pull ups and I don't want to be injured.
I get this from rock climbing and I’m pretty sure you just have to go easy until your body recovers. Heard collagen helps with the tendons but not sure about that
I did a lot of rock climbing before. Are you referring to the soreness or sharp pain? Nothing sores my forearms like rock climbing man. I have to get back at it once I'm healed. I never had this sharp pain while climbing though. It started after barbell curls for some reason. I think it's because the bar was straight so when I was lifting it up my wrists were bent a little.

why do you think you got pain from it?
>pain in my forearms after doing barbell curls
Started for me too recently. I used to only get it from pullups
Now wrist and bicep curls hurt too
use wrist wraps, that solved it for me
I've seen a lot of speculation about potential causes, such as bending the wrist inward or outward too much and putting strain on the forearms
>I dont care that much about the pain
you will retard
>barbell curl
seems you need to switch to curl bar, they exist for a reason
Get fat grips. The XXL ones are a meme reserved for specific exercises. The blue ones are kino lvl 800.
These will save your forearms. I can't even curl more than 30 lbs without them, my forearms start hurting like shit. Can curl 45's with them.
PUSSY HAHAHAH
Sorry bro, your hands would looks like a womans if you compare them to mine
Could be the start of tennis or golfers elbow. I got golfers elbow from pullups and dumbell curls myself. It started with a lingering pain that I ignored, which eventually "snapped" and made my pinky go numb and hurt like a bitch afterwards.
Got myself a Theraband Flexbar which has helped rehab. It's been 2-3 months now and I can finally start doing dumbell curls again, but I'm completely avoiding pullups.
>barbell curl
fuckin shiggy, my dude. Use an ez bar or use superior dumbbells and do alternating standing bicep curls and incline curls
>curls
now see there's your problem.
>2022
>still curls
You deserve the pain you're going through right now
I just do chin ups and pull ups. Curls always leads to forearm injury for me
Is the pain on the inside of your forearm near your elbow? Same side as your pinky?
> doing barbell curls for a week everyday
retard school of training
> It's been a week of skipping gym every other day and going back to dumbbell curls to stop the pain but the pain always come back.
So you injured yourself by overtraining. Then immediately returned to overtraining?
> Any way to speed up recovery?
dont barbell curl for a few weeks. Not making gains is gods punishment for being a mong
Basically. Don’t barbell curl everyday. As you found your body can’t handle that volume. Also rest rather than blast your muscles.
Back off on the volume, change grip, or find a curl variant that stresses your forearms less. Preacher curls hit my forearms too hard so I avoid them mostly.
