elbow pain coming on with weights

[doyceg]

Why do i always get elbow problems when i work out my arms but never when i do bench press or work my shoulders? it seems like that particular up motion when i curl is what sets it off. do you think this is caused by poor technique or do you think i am just over training? I work my arms out on separate days and do usually 20-25 sets.

You should drop sets to 10-12 and change positions of your training, you need to go lower with weights and change angles.

it is a combination of both in most situations. you need to listen to your body and if it works don't do it

You could be use elbows 2 much in the movements, I see alot of people make that mistake with triceps they use way to much elbow and not the actual triceps in the movement, or they lock elbows and I cringe inside.

You're probably over rotating your hand.

you have inflammation man.. likely from an increase in weight you are lifting and it becomes too strenuous on certain parts, the elbow being one of the main ones... you need TO REST... thats the only way to get around it... its only going to get worse and be more nagging each day that you don't rest... rest now instead of prolonging the inevitable and making it worse man... use your head here

I would recommend taking some N2JointRX ongoing to help with joint health. You really need to make sure you are resting enough too and switch toa de-load week when you need one.

if it's an issue do a variant of the exercise and see if it helps.

Certain movements you need to drop weight on. Skullcrushers will destroy my elbows if I go too heavy on them.
