Wrist problem
ad
My left wrist is crackling and popping when I lift heavy on curls to the point where I'm now concerned although the pain isn't bad at all. I can feel "shifting" aroud under the skin. I am able to lock my grip in for all lifts but anytime where my wrist bends too much or there is pressure (heavy pressure) it crackles. This has been very recent and has to do with my test e cycle starting to kick. Idk what to do but I do know it's nothing severe hasn't really hurt any gains yet.
Anyway if anybody has any expierence with this I'd love to hear your expierences. I will get an MRI or X-ray just not for a bit because I'm broke.

DT-SwoleMy friend uses the MMA wrist straps you can find on amazon to bench. Fairly flexible but stays tight during the bench.
Thats exactly what I use on bench day, orherwise they hurt for a week...
sgtstedankoMine crack pretty much all the time. They've both been broken once or twice. If it doesn't hurt, don't go the mri, etc route. Heavy up your calcium, msm, chondroitin, vita d, glucosamine intake. That's what I do. I also wear nikkon magnet wrist doohickeys. they help a lot : ) good luck
Question.....i started hitting glucosamine and got crunchier. Ankles...wrists etc. Too lil water or why did it dry me out? I quit glucosamine and i quit poping.
sgtstedankoWeird. Exact opposite for me. But I take everything listed, nit just gluco. I honestly don't know why you'd get crunchier... Kmi
I thought maybe i wasn't taking in enough water. Gluc was trying to lube joints but i was dry. So i took in more water but waking up was snap crackley pop. And gym was rugged til joint popped then I'd lift heavy as Hell. Off cycle too....which is why it perplexed me.
Thanks datman and 56too
I went off my Omega supps and I think that combined with the test kicking and my lifts going up again from another run with test and yes my age haha.
I'll get straps and kick the supps up.
This is something I deal with pretty constantly.. for me it has to do with dry joints , if i go a few days without taking my joint supplements, I can definately feel it when I go heavy. Try glucosamine, msm, hyraulanic acid, and your omegas... Does wonders for me. . Also wear wrist wraps when you can. Hope this helps.
56tooBro I would say start whacking it with your right hand and give your left a break LOL. JK bro, well maybe not. I looked at your profile and noticed you're in your early thirties so I can't suggest maybe your age. I can tell you when you start getting up there you start to feel shit you never knew could even happen BUT IT DOES.On a more serious note bro, shit like that happens to me then just as quick as it started its gone.
