here's something interesting i'll note: the initial lift with my left arm is painful. however, once i get one full curl in, i am able to match what my right arm is doing. however, once i put the weight back down and let go, the pain hits my left arm again

>the pain goes deeper than just muscle. it's like i feel it inside my bones.. as if my left forearm is about to snap right in two.
Take a week off and from now on do only hammer curls (no supinated curls) if you want to avoid pain and injuries.

no, my form is good. my entire body is in rock solid position. i bring the dumbbells up, come to complete stop, bring them back down, come to complete stop, and repeat

are you curling 40lb dumbells or 20lb dumbells?

seemingly good advice. i just tried hammer curls and they're harder because of the fat gripz, but the pain is not nearly as bad. i suspect that i only felt pain at all because of the soreness that already existed. i'll see how this goes for a while

40 lb. see pic i posted of bowflex adjustable dumbbells. i dial up each one to 40

you could also try keeping your palms facing outward through the lift so your forearm bones aren't moving

so reverse curls?

>>39286896
no, I guess I should have said palms forward.

I had the same pain. Just rest to let it heal and then stay away from supinated grip, it just works for whatever reason that I'm unaware of.

But you have to rest for a week or so.

How's your deadlift?
It's always diddlies that make my forearms feel strained
