Many of the wrist injuries from such exercises as bench presses and shoulder presses can carry over to most bicep and back exercises. Hence, making it difficult to curl bars or dumbbells and having a proper workout gloves will help in avoiding those types of injuries. The pressure is felt more when the bar is resting on the meatier section of the hand, above the thumb. So, this negates the bone-on-bone contact associated with these exercises, but can lead to joint pain in the thumb and lower wrist with heavier weights.
