Pain location on the elbow? Sounds like some golfer's/tennis elbow. I get the same crap too. Best idea is to rest/ice and then slowly work back into a routine with lighter weights/more reps. Connective tissue can be a bitch when you start lifting heavier. Also, try some compression wraps on it (I actually use one of these bad boys: http://www.cvs.com/CVSApp/catalog/sh...ump&navCount=3)

Good luck broseph

i dont think its tennis elbow, because that would be so much more painful

It's hard to diagnose by his description, but tennis/golfer's elbow are simply distinguished by which tendons are inflammed (lateral epicondylitis vs. medial epicondylitis). Either way, a tendon is obviously inflammed in the area.

I was having problems like that, started taking Animal Flex and it went away. Maybe coincidence, maybe not.

Preacher curls with an ez bar will do it to me still. I look for other biceps exercises.
