I just recently started lifting again after taking about a 7 year break from the gym. My very first say back I hit bench press and went too fast with too much volume, the next day I woke up and had the worst elbow pain I've ever had in my life. I was freaking out because I had a difficult even putting my airpods in, even scratching my nose quick if it was itching or brushing my teeth. After a few brutal days this finally gave me the relief to where I can do everyday tasks, I'm legitimately feeling emotional right now at the thought of this pain finally going away. Thank you so, so much

Dude, I am watching this in my kitchen as I type. …watching your demo and rationale, I e picked up a can of RAID bug spray and set it in my island cutting table, dropped to a knee and rolled the pain right out. I could go on with my excitement … really thanks for the precise and pertinent info to an issue that plagued me for 2 months as an auto tech.

This video is two years old, but it still saved my elbow. I'm still relatively new to fitness and although I'm an athlete, I've only recently begun to properly take care of my body because I was dumb and didn't know my limits. This was the first time I've had this kind of elbow pain, and I was anxious and didn't know what to do. Thank you SOO MUCH for this, even if it's old, it's a literal lifesaver!!

Did it work?

[@Squaredot01]

I first watched this video and thought, "man this is so simple it's silly". Well I tried it and it really does work. I used a racquetball on my elbow with the tendinitis and I did indeed have a big knot right where my pain was. Only the racquetball was able to get down deep enough to work it out. This didn't make all my pain go away instantly (I'm on week 5 of rest and now it's almost gone), but following this technique let my elbow begin the healing processes for sure. Now I use this technique for knots and muscle tightness in other areas. Thank you for posting this video!!

Thank you! If you have an affiliate practice in NYC, please mention that in your About section. I've been to 2 PTs so far, one practiced medieval torture on my back with graston "therapy" and the other was just milking insurance and copay visits (stretched sessions and did procedures unnecessarily like assisted stretches where i knew and he knew how much they paid for each procedure and based on that, he would pick the higher reimbursed procedures to do.) I had one PT from 20 years ago as good as you and resolved a long term issue in 6 brutal sessions of real hands on therapy....guess what? He stopped practicing and runs the business with other PTs fresh out of school, and i tried it and complained esp. when they gave me a list of exercises to do without any explanation and never went back. Arrrg....very difficult to find a really good PT, so far lately, it's about a paycheck, not patient results.

Doc, Thank you! like so many others, I thought I had golfers elbow. I realized it became the most irritated when I fired the tricep muscle while extending my left arm at the impact of the golf ball.

[@Cre8Thought41]

What's wrong with a tennis ball? They seem to work as well and a lot cheaper than a lacrosse ball.

[@MoveWellLiveWell]

Hello and Thanks for Watching!😄There is nothing wrong with using a tennis ball or any other ball for that matter. What matters most is knowing that you can take care of whatever ails you. I simply find that a lacrosse ball is extremely durable and the rubber composition doesn’t allow it to slide around as much. Also, it doesn’t compress as much if you really want to dig into your tissues with more pressure. Remember, “Within every patient there resides a doctor, and we as physicians are at our best when we put our patients in touch with the doctor inside themselves.” Albert Schweitzer- Thanks Again for Watching and your comment.

Feeling extremely bad but 5 minutes in to this , i am feeling very free. Pain is not there... Mobilization has certainly help one bit, my question is how much time do i need to do this? How about the heating treatment? Kindly guide.

[@baller6897]

I believe I have tricep/elbow tendonitis because whenever I do any pressing (chest, shoulder) next day my elbows are sore and discomforting. And whenever I wanna try to do tricep exercises, like push down, cable, my tricep doesn’t get activated that much but my elbow starts to hurt. Should I follow your guideline and just foam and stretch it and stop working out or try to continue to workout to a lesser degree and foam it a lot? Any help would be appreciated Lots!

[@Wesker1984]

I haven't lifted since getting this, I initially thought Tennis Elbow, but Squat University shows a stretch that helps diagnose the problem. Yeah it's Triceps/Elbow Tendon issue. 6 weeks no training now, it's annoying 😒. Wondering if I should just grab some BPC 157 to help accelerate healing at this point (on top of rehab work ofc). The cause was heavy (35kg/77lb for 3 reps) Dumbell Incline Bench. Managed all 3 on my left side, but failed the third on my (ironically stronger normally) right side. Left the training a few days to recover, but went shopping and came back with it. Oh boy that's when the pain kicked in, I could barely lift the child safety gates open. Agony, and it still flares up 6 weeks later. I'm still strong enough to do stuff, it's just painful af. Really need to sort this out now lol, some elbow sleeves too for support during rehab and ongoing to try and avoid it happening again.
