Never done any grappling in a gi, thats why I recommended no Gi Grappling as ive never had hand /fore arm troubles either.
I think its all about your grip strength and eventually you will get used to it. When I started working on a farm we had to use clippers to cut the sheep toe nails, doing that for 8 hours for 3 days made my hands and fore arms burn, but after awhile its not so bad.
I laughed when my friends started landscaping and would always complain how much their hands and forearms hurt from holding on things like a wheedwhacker (constant vibrations) all day.
There is alot of ways to work out your fore arms and grip strength... I think there are some grip forums out there, why not check out one of those.
