Sounds good. Btw, you should be keeping the bar straight on your own.

Yeah. I've read things like that. The tendonitis is a very general term which could translate broadly into "a fucked up tendon" (
itis means basically an inflammatory condition). I wouldn't worry about stess fractures too much. That usually is the end result of chonic weaking of the tissue and the transference of too much force to the bone. It's possible of course and like I said no one can say.
On the other hand I use the straight bar a whole, whole lot for years and I've never had an problems at all. I have also always done forearm work so perhaps this does play into it a lot.
