Nice video. I have the flexbar and I've been trying to do the Tyler Twist exercise for about a week now because of my mild tennis elbow pain. I've followed every online video to make sure I'm doing every step completely right, and yet I still don't think I'm doing it successfully. I hardly feel my forearm muscles working at all when I release the twist, and if anything, I feel like my wrists are the ones doing the work. Everyone says the exercise is super helpful, so I feel like I must be doing something wrong. I have the red one, so does this just mean it's too easy? Or should you still feel your forearm working? Any thoughts on what I'm doing wrong?

Depending on your strength, it may not be enough resistance. Poor wrist range of motion may play into it too, I'm not sure because I've not seen your specific case.

It really depends on the individual case and where they are in the body. I typically start patients with isometric exercises or eccentric exercises, depending on their case, and then progressively load and move into concentric exercises as they improve! Tendinopathies are definitely challenging and many providers still use the term tendonitis even when the complaint has lasted for years. We know now, from research, that the development of the injury is more than just chronic inflammation in the tendon! Thanks for watching!

These exercises are fairly painful for me using the red Thera-Band and a 1KG dumbell. usually fit and healthy 41yr old male. The pain has been pretty intense for the past couple of days which I guess is because I've brought on Tennis Elbow via sudden trauma to the tendon, should I continue with the exercises or wait until doing them causes me less pain? Or should I buy a lighter yellow Thera-Band?

@JasonWilliamsDC-Chiro-Rehab3 жыл бұрын
Typically, if a patient has fairly normal muscle strength in the wrist/hand extensors I will start them on eccentrics at the beginning and have rep them out to fatigue or tolerance, as long as it's not causing an increase of more than 3 points in the pain scale. If there's noticeable weakness and the pain is really severe, then I typically start them with isometrics (muscle contraction without joint movement) until they can tolerate eccentrics. Most people can tolerate eccentrics right away, but if it's post surgical or a significant tear/rupture then they may not. Ultrasound may help sometimes, but isn't going to get the issue to resolve completely. *Remember all physio and chiro are not created equal* , so if you go to another chiro or physio you may get a better experience.

When I do grip it hard, and put it through the motions, my elbow sometimes hurts immediately afterward, but several hours later is nearly pain free, Is this actually normal?

Sometimes rehab will cause some post-rehab pain increase. I typically tell my patients that they should do their exercises but modify to keep the pain from increasing 3 points on a scale from 0-10, 10 being the worst. There's a fine line there. Glad to hear it's helped you some though!

@JasonWilliamsDC-Chiro-Rehab2 жыл бұрын
It's not uncommon to have an increase in discomfort since the exercise is designed to build strength in the muscles/tendon that's weak and not healing. Sometimes pain with these exercises means I reduce the intensity and give my patients other exercises that demand less strength.

Could you rank the alternatives? is a flexbar just more convenient or physically better than a dumbbell?
@JasonWilliamsDC-Chiro-Rehab2 жыл бұрын
The Flexbar is the best because you can effectively do isometric, eccentric, and isometric contraction in a more natural grip with a more even load distribution. After that I'd say bands, dumbbells, then kettlebells.

@JasonWilliamsDC-Chiro-Rehab2 жыл бұрын
It's not abnormal to have some popping, cracking, or snapping with the exercises. A few things can cause this, the most common being a tendon sliding over a boney landmark which isn't typically a huge issue. Joint crepitus is another common cause and is typically caused by osteoarthritis (normal joint degenerative changes.) I hope you found the video helpful and thanks for watching!

Hi .. I have had tennis elbow several times , I had a cortisone injection twice ,last time I had it was March and I am starting to feel the pain again . With doing your excercises when would you expect to see an improvement ?
@JasonWilliamsDC-Chiro-Rehab3 жыл бұрын
I'm sorry to hear that. From my experience steroid injections can help relieve it for a period of time but it will sometimes return after the drug is metabolized by the body and if the insult is still present. I can't give you a time frame, I usually treat the patient in my office while they're doing exercises so it's a more comprehensive treatment. I always suggest seeing a chiropractor who's familiar with treating these injuries, or possibly a PT. These exercises are important but not always enough, in themselves, to get you over the injury completely. Best of luck with your recovery!

Throughout my research no one tells when to start doing these types of excercises. Or when to not. When doing eccentric excercises for me right now causes some pain. Should I keep going? Should I be feeling any pain during? Bc not sure if feeling pain making it worse.

Hi Jason, great video. A couple of questions. 1. How is tennis elbow developed? I do a lot of computer work which I have read can cause it, but it is necessary for my job. But my colleagues do the same amount of hours and do not have tennis elbow. Is there a proper desk setup that can help? My right arm (which I use to control the mouse) is what is affected. 2. I bought the Theraband Bar like you suggested and have been doing the exercises. How long do you do them before tennis elbow should subside somewhat? What frequency do you recommend doing the Tyler Twists?
@JasonWilliamsDC-Chiro-Rehab3 жыл бұрын
Tennis elbow is an overuse injury from repetitive micro trauma, typically. Not everyone is going to get it doing the same actions, your unique physiology and lifestyle are factors that play into it. I typically suggest having your arms at your side and at 90 degrees when at the computer. Sometimes a different mouse (vertical mouse) or keyboard can help. I can't give you specific guidance on when your elbow pain will improve with the Flexbar exercises since it's unique to everyone and some people require more treatment than solely home exercises. I always recommending seeing a chiro or PT if your condition isn't improving sufficiently. I wish you the best of luck in your recovery!

If it's causing wrist pain patients may be either doing too many reps, using too high of resistance, or have some kind of dysfunction in their wrist (that may or may not be related to the tennis elbow complaint.)
