Reply With QuoteLooks to be more like distal biceps tendon pain than pronator teres syndrome. PTS has a similar symptomology as Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. Some heavy, slow biceps curls would probably be of some benefit to you.

Pronator Tares pain
Seem to have a nagging pain in my forearm. Its not so bad once wormed up but when I am not working out and have to use the muscle it hurts. I have been massaging it but no real help so far.
Is there a specific exercise or just continue with my NLP and sooner or later it will go away?

Thank you Will. Ill get to work on those and report back.

I had a wicked case of distal biceps tendon pain and I found that heavy, slow bench pressing before and after squats helped a lot.

I have been doing chins for quite a while and they dont seem to change anything. Will curls be much different?

It’s much easier to dose curls with heavy, slow resistance than chins.Originally Posted by Matthew Spicka

Started them yesterday. Worked up to 3x5 at 85#. The pain feels a bit dull today. Better than before. Im thinking 3 days a week, ramping up 2.5 per workout until I stall?

If you reduced the weight a bit, you should be able to do them daily for even more benefit.

What a life saver you are Mr Morris. This is working. My arm feels so much better. Im up to 90#x3x5. Im going to quit my PI and become a strength coach!
You all have helped both my shoulder pain and my arm pain. Im almost 100%.

Glad we can be of some help to you, but, then again, you are the one actually doing the work. I just spent about 45 seconds typing some stuff up.
