Man you really really saved my life here. I am just starting to learn about weight exercises and came here from the forearm workout video. I was doing cable pull-ups holding the bar with only the first bows of my fingers which probably caused the problem now I understand. Thanks for the explanation and showing each finger separately to explain the difference.

[@Mikepereich]

Do you have any thoughts on occipital pain while doing dumbbell press?

[@farmerjonfarmerjon807]

You're a LIFE SAVER!!! While my elbow is still hurting, you gave me the confidence to keep training through it and the stretch is GREATLY HELPING. Its been 4 days I've since I started using this and its getting a lot better. Thanks Athlean-X

[@vasujitbhattacharjee1284]

thanks man.. i am really having this pain.. i didn't know what caused it..thanks for letting me know.. please post more videos related to this types of body pains

[@kaltask1]

Any suggestions for people who have gold tendonitis? I have never played golf, but my doctors have been saying that I have it. It's been like this for almost a year now and the doctors are not helping at all. I have been given max 5kg weights to use on the hand, some band strength moves and this same stretch that was showed on this video. Mostly it flares from the elbow to the wrist, those two are the main culprits. Mostly I feel the pain when on a computer (at work) and sometimes randomly on a gym or after gym. Any help from anyone is appreciated.

I think there is a handful of people on youtube that are as knowledgeable as Jeff. But when it comes to the actual love of simply helping others get better, this man is unparalleled.

[@welshdragon2008]

Jeff. Why dont you do a short series on injuries like this. Shoulder (all 3 heads), wrist, legs (quads and hamstrings) etc etc... would be very usefull to have explanations like this. Explain more about the kinetic chain too. I love you Jeff!

[@MintMent0s]

welshdragon2008 especially shoulders!!!

[@Ali-ns6fx]

welshdragon2008 if you have pain in the heads of the shoulders, which are muscles, then just take a break and let them heal. I think the shoulder joint and rotator cuff are the parts that you mean he should make videos on (which he has done if you need them)

[@darkfeder7715]

Bright Idea, some more like here, people! Let's make our Jeff notice this :)

[@hiagooliveira6510]

these videos are long not because jeff wants, but because unfortunately youtube almost forces you to have videos longer than 10 minutes, because the difference between a video with more and less than 10 minutes is a lot when it comes to revenue...

[@JaxBlade]

LITERALLY JUST WHAT I NEEDED!!

[@pattgsm]

Not to hijack comments for Jeff... But JaxBlade!! I've been off pull ups for 3mo now 😭 because of the pain. Took me 3 mo of Australian pull ups before I could do 1 Reg pull up. Then another 3 mo to work up to 5 pull ups. Now 0 pull-ups 😭😭😭. I did get one of those P.T. Sticks that you mentioned in of of your vids. I grip and twist 5min 2x per day. I don't know if it's working but boy do I feel it right in the inner elbow. I tell ya, my body is in a constant state of Deku. 😂If it's not one thing it's something else in a state of recovery and I can't push it. I mainly alternate btwn 1-2hr walks (4 x per week), 30 min jump rope(3x per week 1min on 30sec off), 45 min Bodyweight exercises (3 x per week: push ups, dips, squats, lunges, planks, bridges, pull ups). Typically I'll just pick 3 of the exercises per session then rotate 3 more for next session. I wouldn't even call this close to extreme training. This is basic, not even athlete level. Not loving my physical limits but I know things could always be worse. So like my 1st car that I got for $100. I'll continue to do the best I can w/ what I've got, while I've got it. Until the wheels literally fell off😂

Superb video on how to deal with medial epicondilitis. I've had this issue for the past month or so and through research I've done a lot of things to alleviate the pain but it's not 100% gone. I've not tried this yet though as in order to avoid calluses I've gripped the bars too far up my hand exactly like he is describing. When I used to grip further down I got heavy calluses but don't remember such pain. It seems I will need to try what he is suggesting and simply grip how I used to grip.

You are a hero. I've been to different fysio therapists.

My problem is not the healing. Since I've had it for about 7 years it only hurts for a couple hours nowadays whereas back then it used to hurt for a week or two. This video made so much sense especially because of the things I expected just have been confirmed and I was able to test it. I also noticed that when I get a good grip on the bar in way that the bar feels small in my hands the pain is reduced by a lot and I can lift much better these days and this explains why.

I have been having problems with my left elbow for over 2 years now, and it has kept me from working out. This video should be mandatory to watch for everyone starting at the gym!

[@bobb3261]

This is an eye opener. I need to change my grip 💪🏽

[@ernieramos2792]

I'm getting pain the other side of the elbow, may be Tennis elbow. Wondering how I fix that.

[@dontaye6558]

Ernie Ramos take a break that's what I did

[@joemagnets9940]

Hello Ernie. I had that problem when doing chin ups with the palms of my hand facing toward my face, severe pain. but when facing the palms of my hand away from my face the pain doesn't happen. Try that, should work for you too.

[@JKALEDGENDZ]

Yeah that might be tendinitis in the elbow tendon, leave the biceps curls for a week or so and when you do them again go a little lighter and make sure to emphasize the contraction on the bicep to prevent loading too much stress on the tendon. The muscle can take the damage and repair quickly but overloading a tendon is not a good idea, there are also exercises to strengthen the elbow tendon that might help 👍

[@breckenridgelong7692]

Not 100% sure but it's probably from bending your wrist back the opposite direction (tennis/golfers wrist). One is from curling your wrist in, the other from extending it out. Possibly you're letting your wrists fall back too far on heavy benches?

[@flob.5743]

I guess it is the "musculus masturbatus". If you are moving your fist up-and-down, you see this special muscle moving. So, if you are a high intensity masturbator, stop doing it for a couple of days :) .... (hahahaha :D just kidding)

[@msyager]

I experience elbow pain from holding too many beers at a ninety degree angle. It started about 30 years ago.

[@markblaz3916]

Great tip! I’m a massage therapist and not sure if I did this massaging or working out but appreciate the help!

[@rikusuosalo9041]

After I started watching Jeff, I realised just how much I was doing wrong at the gym

[@GeraltBosMang]

THank you so much COACH! I have been stumped by this happening on both my elbows, especially on my weaker side. Do Hammer Curls aggravate the FSD? I sometimes would feel pain in that area as well when doing heavier weights. But it isn't necessarily bending horizontally like a barbell or chin up, so I don't know if hammer curls should be avoided as well.

[@Quavon9786]

Noplay I get this when I do db hammers or shrugs

[@NextToNo1]

I get this pain on hammer curls aswell

[@LostInLeiden]

yeah I get this worse on hammer curls than anything else, I can't do pull ups either

[@ncooty]

@Noplay What you're describing sounds more like pain in the brachioradialis. For that issue, check out this Athlean-X video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hYWQYqCHiKpmotk

[@catyeofitness]

omg.. this video was the answer to my elbow pain. no physio or doc even came close to figuring our the cause of my elbow pain. Thank you x100000

[@uncooked_ham]

Thanks for this, I know all too well the pain of a common gym injury, albeit via my husband. He regularly comes home from the gym with scratch marks down his back and a bleeding anus from his regular weight lifting sessions with his trainer Gary. He says it's hard but he puts up with it because Gary is such a great guy and he doesn't want to let him down, and I can respect that :)

[@westonweigand1228]

Lmao

[@jumpninthedarkalley]

Lol bless you 😂😂😂
