Jeff this is a game changer! Just changing the dumbells so they are around a 45 degree angle as I start the lift until I get to the top where I make sure they are back to straight and then 45 degree back down is a total game changer! Even with sore wrists I was able to do really slow and focused curls with heavy weight with absolutely no wrist pain! The first time curls haven't hurt my wrists in probably over a year, usually I just power through it, now I can just focus on the contraction of my bicep and make each rep last longer! Very appreciated!

So when I was younger I broke my Ulna in the middle not needing surgery just a adjustment but I wasn-t lifting weights for awhile as I wasn-t into lifting at that age but a few years later I decided to lose weight and build muscle and I felt pain doing curls in the wrist of the arm I broke but not on my good arm. Should I feel that pain in both wrists if I feel it in one or is it common for one wrist to have that pain and for the other to not have it. Or is it because I broke my ulna a few years ago I-m going to feel that pain no matter what.

I get a very sharp pain in the middle of my forearm (My ulna bone) every time I pull something up with my pals facing up, let's say, I train biceps on the cable machine. It only hurts when my palms are facing up and I use my biceps
I first had this pain 2 years ago after I started working out but stopped training for 2 years and when I started going to the gym again last month, this pain came back and I don't know what it is and why I have it.
The weight doesn't even have to be remotely heavy neither

Happy that I found that video. Thank you! After 24 years of lifting I have exactly the problem that the guy from India described! I didn't get it from lifting but from hitting my hand to a wall. Personally, I decided not work out arms for 1 week. Then only dumbbells and cables and now after 1 month I curl with my wrist strapped tight! You are right about the ez bar it's easier on the wrists but I think the straight bar does better work on strength. The pain is still there but it's significantly less.

The EZ curl bar seems to be what's causing my pain. That and shooting with my goalie stick haha. Maybe driving too. Anything that has abduction of the wrist stresses Flexor Carpi Ulnaris so I'm thinking its Golfer's elbow. I wonder if it has to do with holding two handed bars period (hockey stick, ez bar, steering wheel that all require my hands in abduction. Like maybe dumbells would help, but I also tend to use greater range of motion with dumbells. I don't know. RICE? I'll give it a few days.

I get a tingling shock sensation in that exact spot when I do normal hammer curls or cross body hammer curls but only in my right wrist. I'm having to do less weight because of the issue but now I don't feel as though I'm getting much out of the exercise. Normal curls are fine and I get no pain at all, even when I go heavy for strength training.
Edit: I now understand why. I have recently discovered that I have a crushed disk in my neck, which is irritating a nerve in my right arm.

More people need to have faith in their body. Your body is extremely unique to you. We are made up of an insane level of complexity. If something feels bad, make it feel good and do it that way. Even the most expert person in the world won't be able to take into account every factor that makes up your biology.
You have to be the one to do it, using how your body feels combined with your knowledge.

i would also suggest in addition to what Jeff says is to use some kind of armcurl support pretty much what you can find on home workout benches. Not only for wrist support using the armcurl bar jeff mentioned but to also isolate the bicep amd get as much out of it as you can. thats obviously not included thoses poeple out there doing compound exercises. thats a whole different kettle of fish

This is exactly what i needed. I've been feeling pain the the ulnar side of my wrist.
The advice actually worked and now I don't feel pain anymore. I was scared because I didn't want to damage my wrist for the long term. Hopefully, this helps more people.
I only had the pain when I would do pronation exercises with my wrist.

Anyone know what I-m struggling with, it-s not my wrist bone but it feels like a tendon around my forearm-wrist, when I do hammer curls and even without a weight, when I get to the end of the rep where I squeeze sometimes if hard enough it feels like a pop with a half second sharp pain like getting pinched but inside of my forearm
