Impulsepainter is correct.

You are going to want to try the following:

1. Harbinger (personal favorite) power lifting gloves with wrist wraps
2. Try using an E-Z bar instead of straight bar
3. Try adjusting your hands on the bar
4. Try icing the wrists
5. See a chiropractor

not sure if this has been asked before...but what do you recommend when it comes to formal education in exercise/diet/fitness/etc?

I'm currently majoring in Exercise Science, but I want to get a PT certificate while I'm at it, and I don't know what the best place to go through for that would be.
Also, I have an interest in learning about the nutritional end of things. So, would that require a college degree, or are there places that test for nutrition similar to that of personal training?

This is a very interesting question.

There are many avenues you can pursue including exercise science, kinesiology, anat+physio, nutrition, or pre-med. However, they all take you you down a different path.

As far as your personal training cert goes...go for NASM or ACSM

what does premed entail?

either biology, chemistry, or math basically.

I recommend biology - but its a specific track for pre-med professions like doctors, chiropractors, nutritionists, etc.

How about Biomedical engineering?

When bench pressing at home, is it easy to hurt your shoulders? I think I lifted a little too much weight and my shoulders kind of hurt now...but I iced them and took ibuprofen and they're feeling better. Just wondering if you think thats the reason why they're hurting.. Damn bench press!!
