[QUOTE="madman, post: 128460, member: 13851"] If it is in the early stages you need to back off and let it heal otherwise it will just lead to more serious issues down the road. I would say even though you stated that it was from the dumbell curls a common cause can be from a muscular imbalance in the forearm extensos/flexor muscles as too many end up having very strong forearm flexor as oppose to extensor. You may need to incorporate more pronated movements such as reverse wrist and reverse biceps curls to strengthen your forearm extensors. Once the area heals up of course you can go back into using the same exercises you just have to make sure you that your forearm strength is balanced and you may need to try different grip position/not lifting so heavy and ofcourse not overdoing certain exercises which would impede recovery. As long as one warms up properly. uses proper form, works on strength imbalances and allows sufficient recovery than you should be able to train smart well into your older years. [B][COLOR=rgb(184, 49, 47)]One will find that if you have been weight training long enough theses issues will tend to creep up now and than only to become more common as one ages!
