Pain in forearm when Releasing weight

MasriDoode Posts: 11 Joined: 2005/03/10	2005/03/24, 10:05 AM When I do any bicep lifting, I feel the burn and everything while doing it. However, right when I let go of the dumbell or whatever it is, I feel a shooting pain in my forearm for about 6 seconds after. Is that totally normal. It hurts like a mother, none of my friends experience this so I really dont know if thats normal. HELP? thankyou

Have your doc check it out - it can be treated. And it's better to treat early and get back to lifting, than to keep making things worse. -------------- Michael Nothing personal....
