Is it normal after working your biceps (especially the reverse barbell curls) to feel tighness in your elbows when you try to lock them(straighten out) ?

This doesn't sound right. You could be going too heavy. Go lighter on the weights and see if that makes a difference. If not, then you may want to see a doc.
