I can't do a straight bar. I can't do a gay bar. I can barely do an ez
bar
on a preacher bench but it still hurts. my small (but growing) 17"
biceps
can handle the 150lb without a problem. but my wrists are being the week
spot. they feel like they are going to break in half about 3 inches
below
my
wrists. Wraps do not help at all. any ideas?

Thanks.
Richard



How are they with dumbbells?

Its OK with dumbbells if I haven't done preacher curls that week. I've
noticed better gains with the preacher curls over dumbbells. Maybe my
forearms aren't developed enough.. I have intentionally left them out of my
workout to make my upper arms look more proportionate. Forearms are about
14" with biceps 17". Not exactly what I want. But maybe this ratio will get
better as I gain more. i hope.

Thanks.
Richard
