Great video. I find holding Hex Dumbbells on their ends a good substitute for those who don't have access to elephant balls.

can we do 3x10 for both arms for tennis elbow and then can we do 3x 10 for golf elbow? will it be too much ?

Great summary of all the Flexbar exercises for the elbow. And simply the best explanation of how to do them =)

@living4adrenaline Жыл бұрын

This isn't a cure all, it's just one possible intervention. The problem at the elbow could be a lack of full ROM and rotation of the shoulder as well. Thank you for the video.

Definitely getting one or two of those. I got a chronic pain from climbing. Many years. It is not going away this time, so got to find some solution. I'll try this out, and hope it works. Are you continuing climbing/bouldering though?

just to offer some hope, about 4 months into bouldering i got climbers elbow. at first i thought i was done for, as i also have a tendon injury on my right toe which plagued me for 4 years. i just kept climbing through it, mountain biking, push ups, pull ups, some kettle bell. eventually it just sorted it’s self. so you can try that route - don’t panic about it and it’ll just work its self out in my experience. took about 6 months, now i’m about V4-easier V5’s 1.5 years in and doing fine. it was painful but it wasn’t excruciating, so in my opinion, work through it. 34 y/o and not exceptionally strong by anymeans. i was pretty worried at the time, genuinely. climbing also pretty much sorted out the toe too by the way, which at first made me think i’d stand no chance of holding down bouldering as a hobby. in my experience these kind of injuries are like growing pains and the body re-balances it’s self naturally somehow if you require it to. that said some kind of tendonitis in my back is more stubborn, but generally back problems seem to affect many of us so i’m not surprised there.

Do you do multiple sets or just one through each exercise once? How many times/week do you reccomend?

Hi Shawn, I’ve been trying these exercises lately because my elbow has been really bothering me on tough climbs. I found a yellow bar in my house and it was the only color I have so I started to try these exercises. I’m really twisting it because it’s not a very strong bar. I’ve been doing these for about 2 weeks and I’m not really seeing any progress. Is it because there is not enough tension with that Color or am I doing the exercises wrong. Another question I have is when you finish the rep, do you undo the twist and start from scratch or do you just do the reverse of the exercise to get it into that twisted position and release again? Cheers,

Hey Andrew, I'm not Shawn but I hope I can help because I've been researching this a lot recently. The yellow bar is the lightest option out of the flexbars. I'm using the green which takes about15 lbs of force to bend, and the blue one in the video is about 25 lbs of force. To really help stretch the ligaments and build up the muscles around your tendons you'll probably want to go with higher resistance. I've also read from many sources that you should be fully resetting the bar after each rep to maintain the same amount of force and good form. I hope this helps.

@@marshmallowmaster thanks for the reply. I purchased a stronger bar because of my lack of progress about a month ago. I've been keeping up with his exercises and took a two-week break. have been climbing pain-free for a couple of months now so I highly recommend to anyone the exercises in this video.

I've had quite an annoying case of climbers elbow for approximately 2 years and now I can say that I've managed to heal it to the point that it does not stop my climbing session anymore. I've worked on exercises with this TheraBand and doing the narrow pushups. I don't know which exercise helped more with the treatment, but I suggest doing it both. ✌️

So I've been dealing with medial elbow pain for a few months which has been very frustrating. Got some soft tissue work but it was confusing the physio why I still couldn't do a pull-up, yet chin ups were not a big problem. Finally was so curious about the muscles that I studied an anatomy chart and figured out the main culprit seems to be the teres pronator and now the "climbing" facet makes total sense. Anything overhead kicks it on. Just ordered this bar, will give it a shot. Thanks!

@fitz3137 3 жыл бұрын

No good b/c you can't get near enough tension on the affected hand to get a sufficiently sustained roll out for the eccentric (no matter how much you try to bend it toward you at the start). Just do a 5 lb dumbbell off your leg v this convoluted nonsense.

What color to choose? I see you use blue which has the maximum resistance level.

@Climbingmeta 3 жыл бұрын

I'd probably start with the green one and only move to blue if you really need to. The blue one can be quite hard to twist if you are really suffering from sore elbows.

Looks like it's Theraband not Therabar mate. Anyway, excellent demonstration. Is it weird that I feel stress on the arm that's keeping still as the bar unwinds?

@Climbingmeta 3 жыл бұрын

Theraband is the brand, they have a bunch of resistance products, this particular product is the Flexbar. Not strange that you are feeling stress on the other arm, the torque applied by twisting makes both arms work to keep it stabalised.

Sure, you can improvise the pinch block or the weight. containers of water, or even rocks will work if you can't get hold of metal plates.

The exercise can aggravate the area a little to begin with, but that should subside. Go slowly and don't do an excessive amount of exercises. It takes time to see improvements, doing too much can certainly make it worse.

I'm not big on posting youtube comments, but I wanted to post here. I recently got back into climbing, and climbing elbow has always been a problem. I've been pretty aggressive in my climbing, usually every other day of the week, and have started out with bouldering. I've been using your tips with the therabar for about the past two weeks. I still have a slight aggravation, but it is pretty minimal considering how often I've been going by just jumping back in, pretty much beating up my body. I attribute a lot to this, as well as doing an antagonistic muscle work out once a week. Thank you for your suggestion here, it has helped a lot!
