Now it-s been 3 months I am going through the elbow pain and it all suddenly started while I was performing Chest bench press the pain was severe that I wasn-t able to carry on further workout. since then I am unable to go to gym due to this pain, at first I thought it will be fixed itself but it didn-t so I started watching different elbow pain relief videos but nothing worked out for me then I went to a physiotherapist but again unhelpful. Then last week I visited an orthopaedic surgeon he suggested me MRI scan so I did it and report say this ( contusion of subcutaneous soft tissue in posterior olecranon and medial condyle of humerus of left elbow ) now the doctor have prescribed me to do icing thrice a day and imrecoxib tablets 0. 1g, literally I have no idea what is going on and on top of that I live and work in China so I am really mind folded right now and don-t know where to go from here I hope I can get some advise from you will highly appreciate it thanks

Ive had surgery in both elbows with being an avid golfer in addition to some light lifting routines and diagnosed with tennis elbow (still not sure how its not golfers elbow -. I tried every single thing from stretches like Athlean recommends to curtailing golf and lifting, bands, creams, etc, but nothing worked. Had this condition for close to 1-2 years and could barely turn a door knob or lift a beer or coffee. Sucked.
The surgery was not as tough as I thought it was going to be (actually 2 different types of surgery on each elbow) and its now been 10 years and zero pain. I-m now 60 and playing golf 4-5 times a week and about to get back into lifting. Not recommending surgery to anyone and I did my best to avoid it, but for some, might be the only and best alternative.
Wish me luck with getting back into lifting with my new Core dumbbells!

I had a bicycle accident, and hurt my rotator cuff, broke my wrist and broke my elbow. When the doc went to check to make sure my elbow was healed, he twisted my forearm and it was excruciating. He said I shouldn-t have still had pain.
Well, years later I feel like it didn-t heal right. And still is bent a little funny. But I-ve been having pain that runs from my elbow up my arm, and I just watched your vid on stretching the ring finger, and I think that helps. Now I-m going to watch the rest of this vid, to see if there-s anything else I can do. Because I enjoy working out. And I used to love push-ups, but now can only do a few because it-s too much pressure on the wrist. But I will not give up. Thank you for everything! On to this vid!

This tip of having my wrist neutral helped a lot with having elbow pain on most of the exercises but there's an opposite one.
The strange thing was I had enormous pain in the medial elbow on my leg day while having the bar behind my had either doing squats or lunges. What I figured from Jeff's video that I had a over exaggerated strech of the muscle. So when I started concentrating on having my wrist straight or even engaging my forearms just a little bit on my squats and lunges with addition on retracting my scapula a little bit more the pain was no more. This is what I found out a good way to not have elbow pain on leg day

Over use guy here, lol. Taking a break finally, ice, these stretches, modified exercises with neutral grip and I swapped in some different exercises. I think the tendons on my right arm are inflamed just before and just past my elbow. Hard to pinpoint the pain, but this is helping. My pain seems to effect my forearm muscles and then the bottom of my biceps close to the elbow. Curls hurt, bent barbell rows hurt. Close grip rows and pullups don't. Hammer curls really hurt, triceps exercises all seem ok. I can't figure out what or where my pain is for sure. Can you make a video for that? Ha! Much appreciation for what you do!

Hey I just started going to the gym I got a schedule I got from Google long story short I'm new to lifting just got back to it. Friday I did shoulders and I started feeling it since Saturday evening I don't feel it much but Idk if I did to shoulder work out right on the smith machine but if I keep movement on my arms my elbows don't hurt like a sore but if I stop making movement once I start to open stretch my arms my inner elbows really hurt any suggestions to help me with the soreness

Jeff. I recently found your videos and I've learned so much from you. I do have elbow pain constantly from working on biceps and triceps. I took off from gym and it was getting better but the moment I go back the pain starts again. Now when I try to open a bottle or try to pour orange juice, it hurts. I am going over all you said in video and practice. I am glad I found you. Thanks in advance

Thank you so much for this video! I think this is my exact issue. I think I lack the grip strength when doing lat pull downs and cable rows, so I position my wrist in a flexed (L shaped) way instead of a neutral straight way to overcompensate for my lack of grip strength. Gonna continue my lifting and really improve my wrist form and see if that helps!

Just wanted to send you my greatest appreciation. My inside elbow has been hurting for a long time, and I was discouraged to keep working out. Now I know why and how to fix it.
I already see improvement in my elbow pain after 1 week. Thank you so much Jeff. You helped me more than you can imagine. Hope nothing but the best for you sir.

I know Jeff will never see this comment but my pain is right in the center of my elbow. And the scariest part is my left below where the pain is, I can feel the bone protrude out a bit more than my right elbow. I missed training for over 6 months for various reason and the elbow is much better now but its not the best. I hate it.
