Thanks Tim, doing lots of digging at work lately and needed this. Your timing is impeccable.

[@OriginalStrengthSystem]

I hope it helps! Feel free to let me know.

[@1UnstoppableForce]

God Tim, you really are a gem in the fitness space! ...I've said it more or less before but you're the real deal, always.

[@OriginalStrengthSystem]

🙏1000!

[@andrewe3112]

I really needed this. It feels awesome Tim. Thanks.

[@OriginalStrengthSystem]

Andrew, please let me know how and if it helps!

[@brigittemilde44]

Thank you for Posting your Videos. They are very well explained and helpful. Thanks a lot, God Bless you.

[@OriginalStrengthSystem]

Thank you, Georg. So glad they are helpful

[@Run_GMD]

Tim - This was excellent. Just what I needed. In less than 6 minutes you helped me understand that massage and RICE alone won't fix my elbow. MOVEMENT is essential. Duh! What was I thinking? Love your books, but now you've got a new subscriber here!

[@OriginalStrengthSystem]

G M glad it helped! Thanks for subscribing too!

[@SleepY-lw4rr]

Flirt with pain. Funny. I play tennis so thanks for the advice. Everyday a try to watch at least one of your videos. Please continue the good work.

[@OriginalStrengthSystem]

I hope it is helpful. Thank you so much for watching and for your support.

[@minamur]

it's always so nice when you find something that just works.

[@OriginalStrengthSystem]

I hope it’s helpful to you!

[@robertwhite2449]

This really helpsy painful left elbow and shoulder! Thanks Tim. This is good prep for hand positioning and wrist strength and mobility needed for doing an Elbow Lever. The head turns also get good mobility in the shoulders for getting the elbows into position for the Elbow Lever.

[@OriginalStrengthSystem]

Awesome to know! Thanks for sharing!

[@harvestblades]

Well timed video. Upped the weight on both my kettlebell swings, and turkish get ups, and noticed some tenderness on one of my elbows. I will add this to my daily reset.

[@OriginalStrengthSystem]

Larry, let me know if it is useful!

[@tongzilla]

Great wrist stretch

[@cherriemcburney2693]

Excellent! Thannk you!

[@OriginalStrengthSystem]

You are welcome!

[@JR-ez8hd]

Wow...have been dragging on for 2 years with the pain. Tried Acupuncture but it didn't work. Exactly what you said might have happened. Samtola is an India wooden exercise equipment used by wrestlers. At age 55, I started doing these exercises and soon the pain set in. I did get a lot of relief after just 1 session of stretching. Have Subscribed. 😊Thanks ❤

[@OriginalStrengthSystem]

So glad it was helpful to you!

[@alexandergraf7483]

Another great variation is to rock on fist. Or to elevate/ depress your shoulder in each hand holding position!

[@OriginalStrengthSystem]

Great tip Alex!

[@michael-davidarrkerns4799]

This is a godsend: Thank you so much!

[@OriginalStrengthSystem]

Please check back in if you don't mind and let me know how it goes!

[@michael-davidarrkerns4799]

@@OriginalStrengthSystem Will do! I plan on doing this short routine at least every other day for a week. But I experienced immediate relief (right armed tennis elbow).

[@michael-davidarrkerns4799]

@@OriginalStrengthSystem Revisited these exercises today...as I've not been doing them...& the elbow (right) tendonitis returned. Again: Almost immediate relief. Need to focus more on the additional moves (head nods, etc.)...& then incorporate these on a regular basis. Thank you again!

[@1lunarin]

hi different angles really help me out, keep up the good work !!!

[@OriginalStrengthSystem]

Copy that!

[@chriswolf6507]

best regards to your special guest! ;-)

[@hishamalkayed3236]

for me, rocking while griping a small and rolled carpet or towel really helped. and while doing so focusing on using the pinky finger helped even further.

[@OriginalStrengthSystem]

Thanks so much for this fantastic tip!

[@edzanjero353]

Although I exercise daily with dumbells, my elbow tendinitis came about when I accidentally smacked my outer elbow process on my door. It was sore for a week, then I smacked it again. It's been inflamed for weeks now a good 2-3 inches from the process, almost like ligaments were torn.

[@OriginalStrengthSystem]

I’m sorry to hear that. It may take some time but it will heal. It’s frustrating, I know

[@justinschooth5854]

Do you have a recommendation for how often/how much you should do this ? It certainly relieves the issue, but will it help prevent recurrence do you think ?

[@OriginalStrengthSystem]

A little every day or every other day can go a long ways. Well it prevent recurrence? Likely not as typically there is a root cause of habit that is causing the issue. However, this movement could serve as a recovery/rehabilitation/restoration movement to help the tissues heal IF the root cause is addressed.

[@debbieklose8776]

“You’re welcome” when he mentions it’s good for the lats too! 😂😂😂

[@OriginalStrengthSystem]

You get me!

[@debbieklose8776]

@@OriginalStrengthSystem 😂 I do !!

[@tongzilla]

When you find a hand position that irritates the elbow, are you trying to avoid it, or work it till it doesn’t hurt ?

[@OriginalStrengthSystem]

A little of both. Get to the edge of it and see if you can move there to relax away the issue.

[@javadparviz3914]

Hello sir، I accidentally came across your KZbin channel. If possible, I would appreciate guidance on the experience you have. I've been experiencing mild, non-continuous pain near the elbow bone for about three weeks, possibly related to a tendon. The pain is not severe, persistent, and I have no movement restrictions, but it persists in the mentioned areas. I haven't engaged in heavy activities, and I hope it's not arthritis. As someone with experience, what are your thoughts? Thank you again.

[@OriginalStrengthSystem]

IF it is tendon related, tendons just take longer to heal than muscle does because they aren’t as vascular. They test your patience. Time and rest can be your friend for tendinitis, So can strengthening the muscles of your forearms, you can also work on gentle stretching and lengthening these muscles. And If it is arthritis, and it doesn’t sound like it, then movement is good medicine. Don’t despair. Your body is made to heal from this.

[@javadparviz3914]

@@OriginalStrengthSystem "Thank you for taking the time to read and respond to my comment. Based on your explanation, I understand that it's not arthritis but rather a tendon or soft tissue issue. I appreciate your insights, and thank you again for your kindness."

[@88anarahammertime]

What about tricep tendonitis? My tendonitis is in the elbow but not at the insertions by the forearm muscles but rather the tricep insertion at the back of the elbow.

[@OriginalStrengthSystem]

This could potentially help with that. It’s one of those “try it and see” things. The good news is that it should not make it worse!

[@donbypiso486]

That looks more like a treatment for golfers, for tennis elbow better putting the back of the hands on the ground while rocking to stretch the extensors?

[@OriginalStrengthSystem]

I like your thinking. Yes, very much worth exploring.

[@donbypiso486]

@@OriginalStrengthSystem I like your concept very much, Applying a lot as a PT. Great inspiration, Tim!

[@alexb5787]

Just developed tennis elbow. Feels like it's linked from my left shoulder. I'm building up my leopard crawling and maybe pushed too much... Can that cause it?

[@OriginalStrengthSystem]

I suppose that is possible but typically tennis elbow is grip related. You can always reduce your crawling frequency and see if that changes anything.

[@robind6300]

No wonder I had tendonitis! My wrists are so tight I can't even externally rotate fingers to point to knees! I had carpal tunnel too. I can rotate fingers towards knees rotating internally. I never realized this! I think you have helped me prevent future injuries! Thank you!!!!🎉❤

[@sman53]

Never thought I would be taught how to seduce an injury ? “How you doing tennis elbow ?”

[@OriginalStrengthSystem]

Ha! Yeah, sometimes I just say things…

[@fhoniemcphonsen8987]

Will this also help with "the ITIS"?😀

[@OriginalStrengthSystem]

It just might

[@takeoffyourblinkers]

Don't be aggressive. Otherwise you might find yourself having to have someone wipe your ass for around 6 weeks. Not a good look. 🤣 Jokes aside, have had Golfer's elbow (medial epicondylitis) for around 2 years, Finally had to stop work completely and start some rehab, also finally off the anti inflammatories after 2 years. Will give this a try for mobilization.

[@OriginalStrengthSystem]

Let me know how it goes, please! And heal fast!
