Ulna (wrist) pain while weight lifting

[aSami]

Hey all

I've been on and off in the gym for more than a decade now.
After a long disconnect, I start training and then after one month I get a pain in my Ulna bone especially on biceps exercises. the pain is exactly in the middle of the bone.
Some years back I went to the doctor and he said that it maybe due to concentration of some minerals and I have to train with light weights only :s

As a workaround to reduce the pain I discovered that if I do a couple of wrist sets (Seated Barbell Wrist Curl) before the biceps set it will ease the pain a bit.

Any ideas?

Just to add, it very much looks like the bone itself, but it could also be the tendons.

Start out with cable exercises that you pyramid up on and superset and rest pause together.

I.e.

Rope hammer curl two hands - start at 40 lbs for 5 reps, then 50 lbs for 5 reps and so on until the working set. Rest before the first working set. Pick a weight you can barely eek out 15 reps on clean. Do 3 or 4 sets. As you do the second, third, fourth sets, if you cannot hit 15 repetitions do not put the weight down. Hold it for a 3 deep breaths count and finish the set (i.e. do 10 reps wait three breaths do 5 reps).

On each set, superset cable bicep curls on a neighboring machine for a 10 count. Do not wait any between the rope exercises and this. When you finish the rope hammer curls immediately go into cable bicep curls. Again if you cannot do 10, you will keep holding the handle and take 3 deep breaths and finish out the set.

Whenever you pick up a weight and put down a weight, this should be a very slow controlled process if you have wrist or forearm injuries. A lot of injury can occur to pick an example if you preacher curl on bar a heavy weight and at the end of the set you just drop it onto the rack. Putting it down very slowly is not only good for muscle stabilizer development but will prevent shocking the ligaments by jarring them.

If the exercise hurts in a bad way, DON'T DO IT, or do it a different way
