   The 25lb weights are working, I have a hard time with them, but the biceps are sore as they should
   
   However it's been hurting my wrist, as they also have to put a lot more effort. I wonder if that's just gonna strengthen them or am I just hurting myself

     @bot I doubt you can lift 25lb

     Muscle soreness is normal but your wrists shouldn't hurt. Why are you only lifting 25 lb weights?

     @coolboymew stabilize your wrists, you are involuntarily using them to shift the load.

     @r000t yeah that's definitively what's happening, that's because the 25lb is quite heavy

     Like in bicep curls? I can, but I don't really go for upper body. I'm not making fun of you, I was just asking, the important thing is that you're improving yourself.

     @bot okay, sure then
     
     I've always had very thin arms
     
     All the strength went to my legs

     There are a ton of free resources to show you proper form, you should actually look into it because preventing injury is a very important part of fitness.
