Rock climbing with Golfer's Elbow. 30min traverse exercise at the gym. Ep. IV in our Elbow series.

Episode 4 of our Golfer's Elbow series shows you how to climb with the injury while not aggravating it. We propose 4 traverses of 20-30 moves with a solid rest in between, a couple of times a week. Instructions on this and much more are to be found in this episode.
Also have a look at or previous episodes to learn 4 simple exercises using weights to help deal with Golfer's Elbow and to prevent the injury from reoccurring, as well the Theraband as an effective method of shoulder and elbow conditioning and as a great addition to that hallowed climbing warm-up. See the links below :)

The point is high volume low intensity. Unlike muscle injuries, tendon injuries do not get better with rest.

Those exercises didn't help my elbow until I got up to higher weights of 10-15 kilos

[@BoulderLab]

Yeah, that seems to be the general consensus. With me the key was to make super incremental steps and load it very slowly.

[@LFSJack]

Which exercises?

[@BoulderLab]

@@LFSJack the concentric and eccentric ones

[@LFSJack]

Ah ok! Thanks. Same for me. Could somewhat heal my tennis elbow after some month doing them. I also used 10kg. But now it's comming back.. and golfers on the other arm 🥳

@@LFSJack Something which really helped me (I also had reoccuring tennis elbow), was asking one of the other coaches at the gym to look at how I climb. I then made tweaks in how I used my feet and interestingly enough changed my wrist position on crimps. I felt like that helped me to kick the injury in the long run.
