Could be tendonitis or "tennis elbow". Hard to say, tell us where it hurts and what movements you do when it hurts. I had the same sort of thing, think I got it from doing Larry Scott curls & reverse grip baseball curls. If it is, you should probly go see a doc for some nsaid's and go easy on 'em. IP: Logged |

Hey Bro, I had the same problem. It started with heavy barbell curls. I had to back off from the heavy curls for about 3weeks and go light. Now everything is cool. Now I really pay attention to my form when curling.This is just my experience though....hope it helps. IP: Logged |

If it is across the top of the forearm and to the elbow attachment, then it's tennis elbow. Comes from incorrect motion or jerking too much weight in curls, rows or pulldowns. I did it to myself using crappy form and too much weight with an inside grip on barbell curls. Solution: anti- inflammitories, light weights/ high reps, oh, and plenty juice. IP: Logged |

It also can be due to an imbalance between your top and bottom forearms, work them evenly. IP: Logged |

i had a similiar pain that ran just under the outside bone of my forearm (I hope that makes sense). It got worse from doing curls especially straight barbell curls. To solve it I stayed away from any curl motion, other then hammer curls(didn't effect the problem), for a month. Then, as others have said, after that month reduced my weights and focussed on strict form. I haven't felt a thing since. IP: Logged |
