Can you explain this a bit?
Shouldn't be happening.
Yeah when I would lift my arms to support the bar at times it was overcranking and my wrist was bending back probably transferring load to my elbows. Been doing a couple of things differently including wider grip, less lifting of my arms, and stricter wrists. It's helped, along with lengthier warmup of that joint and wearing an elbow sleeve, but every so often it produces discomfort like it's been re aggravated. Doesnt interfere with any other exercises, just some pain and fear. It's the reason I started leading off with OHP or benchpress, just so I don't skip them because it tweaks in squats. Took me forever to realize it was squats (in my defense I am always super setting).
Typically ice it and no trouble by the next day.
