I’m trying to get some bigger biceps, but as I move up in weight, they heavier weights are killing my forearms (my brachioradialis muscle I think). Who here has dealt with this and how do I get around it?

TIA

Are you using straight bar? Straight bar is notorious for this.

Dumbbells are a simple change to alleviate stress. Stretching is also good, but DB's can help a lot while increasing mobility.

I don't see how these will help biceps.
