I’ve been searching for an hour and most videos out there confuse Triceps Tendinopath with tennis elbow pain.. this one is to the point and clear .. I feel I just visited a specialist. Thanks for the great content!

Who is here after doing skull crushers in gym?

KZfaq is full of videos with easy fixes for all injuries and pains for all body parts with all possible types of massages and silly exercises. I wonder if it is the placebo effect that kicks in when I read the comments about how many people have been healed almost instantly and thank and praise those who have this channel for saving their lives. These easy fixes have never helped me with my injuries and ailments I have gotten from training. What has helped is that I have taken the time to help and have started to train again the muscles and tendons in the damaged area with light weights and increased the load as the pain has decreased. It has taken time but it has at least helped me so this video is completely after my heart and is not one of many quack videos on youtube.

The amount of information that you are sharing in each video is just amazing! I just want to express my gratitude for the great work you are doing 🙌🏽

I've been searching so long to learn what my issue was, this is the first video to hit it on the head. You really covered what I needed to know. I was lifting too heavy, too often the past 4-6 weeks. The past week I have stayed away from the weights and just done cardio, this video has really helped me understand what I can do for weights without completely giving them up while I get better.

Man, this saved me a trip to the docs. I've been weight-training hard for the past 2 months and have this exact issue. Thanks for the advice!

Ok.. been searching for weeks to find proper info .. this is by FAR the best video I have come across.. thank you for understanding that people don’t want to rest .. train smart ,work around injuries, modify and listen to your body..

I switched to doing heavy 5 sets of 5 reps for bench press and only increasing load between sessions, my bench has gone up 30lbs in 3 weeks and my left elbow pain while doing so has similarly increased. This video seems to be the most direct for elbow pain rehab, thanks!

I did 10 000 push-ups in 15 Days 12 years ago and i still have this issue ever since. I naturally know the problematic angles at this point and try to work m'y triceps with the right angle and effort. Thanks for the extra tips

I caused this with all those bar dips and pushups. Didn't realize it until it was too late. Then came the tip of the elbow pain (from about the tip to about an inch or so below it). I think the dips are definitely the biggest reason. What's interesting is that I adjusted to it in the same manner videos like this one are suggesting: Being more careful about the load being placed on the tricep when doing my exercises, doing my exercises slower, changing the angle.

I was just getting stronger and then this happened 😢😢😢

Eccentrics and modifying the load has helped me a lot with RC tendonosis but can relate to triceps too

Such a helpful video. I plan to implement some of these exercises into my routine and see how it helps. Thanks for sharing!

Thank you! Finally a video that explains my symptoms AND shows me what to do with it!

This is honestly exactly what I have when doing push up thank you I couldn’t find this info on even bob and brads channel ! Your the man !

This is exactly what I was looking for. This is very helpful 🎉

I recently experienced this after doing too many skull crushers, really annoying and still feeling slight pain after 3 months, thanks for the video!

After wading thru a zillion articles on tennis and golfer's elbow, I'm so glad I found your video that absolutely nails my symptoms, THANK YOU!! Never heard of Tricep Tendinopathy but that's exactly what I have. My elbow hurts only on heavy bench presses and tricep pulldowns. I fell from a ladder and hurt my right shoulder few months back and while cuddling my shoulder probably overloaded my tricep tendon. Glad to hear I don't need to stop everything, I will follow your rehab plan and report back in a few weeks. 🙏

Awesome! I’m no stranger to physical therapy. I’ve rehabbed and stabilized plenty on my own but this symptom has been persistent. It wasn’t until I reached a point where an increase of weight was needed for any actual gains. My shoulder started it all and after watching this it makes sense the triceps caught the tail end. Began on the smith machine… the dumb one that’s angled. Now I know the proper technique for it but those things suck!

Such a well thought-out video. Absolutely packed with clear, science based, yet easy to understand information. Great job!

I have seen many videos prior to this, but none were as clear as this ! This guy is a awesome at what he does !

No bullshit, just pure knowledge 🙌 doing great work.

I injured my left triceps doing heavy push downs with cable pulleys causing pain in my elbow. I have watched several videos and this video gets to the issue without having to stop my workouts. I will try and decrease weights and find a manageable level and add stretch bands to keep range of motion. Pain level goes from 2 all the way to about a 8 plus when using.

Thanks won't be enough and accurate for the therapeutic content that you have provided for people like me who just come across this issue. Content was so precise and accurate that I felt like I was having face to face personal therapy session. Thank you so much.

Amazing content brother. Good information and you don’t sound like a robot, I actually enjoyed listening to you.

This video. Love it. The exact issue I have almost on the elbow joint feeling. It doesn't go away and had the issue past 2 weeks however when I do single handed pushdown using a cable the pain isn't there. If I use double handed rope pushdown it hurts. But then when I do tricep dips with my own bodyweight I experience no pain at all. Its like the angle of the exercise will determine the pain on the elbow joint. For me anyway. Great video and thanks

This guy is CERTAINLY a specialist! You can't say otherwise

As a doctor and a cross fitter with this exact problem, thank you for this superb explanation

OMG how have you just diagnosed me perfectly

This video is god send. Please coach one for quad tendonitis as well I can only find videos which are for patterlar tendon rather than above the knee.

I have been suffering from elbow pain in the area of the triceps tendon for 6 months. An MRI confirmed that the tendon is inflamed, and since then, I have been on a break from sports. Massage, ointments, tablets, cortisone, and shockwave therapy have not helped me. I only experience pain with very light exertion, but not at rest. Because of this, I think this video is exactly what I need to gradually get used to loading the tendon and strengthen it.

Excellent video; have been struggling with this in my left (non-dominant) arm for the past 6 months and have realized that it was most likely caused by an increase in my dip/standing tricep press loads with the hope of muscle growth. Stopped pretty much everything that required heavy usage of the muscle group almost immediately with the pain being at about an 8 of 10 initially, but have been slowly regaining my strength and confidence working with load (at about a 2 of 10 re: pain) over the past 1.5 months largely due to the guidance provided here.

Workout 3-4sets Biceps curl slow tempo 10-15reps Australian pull up 8-10reps Wide push or knee push up 8-12reps Dips 3-4reps slow tempo 3sec up/ down Isolation exercises Skull crusher/ triceps press down 3-5sets 6/12reps Accessory exercises 3sets 6-8 reps slow tempo Supine dumbell shoulders flexion Knee supported external rotation 3sets 10-15reps. Is that should look like that?

So hard to find information on this, thank you!!

god bless you sir.

I’ve been suffering for the last 2 weeks, scouted basically every YT video and some stretches helped a bit but I finally decided to take anti-inflammatory meds and it’s already back to good after 3 days

I think I may have gotten this from working at the post office and casing mail to much. You’d be surprised how much you use your tricep going back and forth. Will def be looking into these isolated exercises. Your PHT video helped me tremendously, hoping the same will work here. 😊

Pitching in baseball started my elbow/triceps pain. Throwing in general brings it back and even gripping and lifting heavy can cause some pain. Doctor told me I would have to chose between surgery or quitting baseball. Neither an option I believe in. I’ve been searching for more technical breakdowns of my issue for months and was stuck in a hole about elbow injuries when I should’ve been looking at my tendons, not joints. Hoping these exercises can allow me to train and improve without pain. Thank you!

Guys y'all are some of the best on the internet. Thank y'all

Thank you got the information. I injured my elbow tendon right at the joint while doing pike shoulder press. I was getting anxious and annoyed because it has been about 8 weeks and still not fully healed but thanks to this video now I know that I should expect a long recovery.

I liked your explanation in the beginning

The thing i am not improving on my bench so i tried pushing exercises super hard thank you so much for this.

This is amazing. So informative and detailed. Thank you for taking the time to make this! You’ve gained a subscriber!

I noticed you excluded trauma. What about old trauma? I’m having a hard time locating a video for this. I broke the end of my elbow off 4 years ago and had to have an L-shaped plate put in. Now, I get a sharp pain at the very end of the extension. Avoiding this pain has cause significant atrophy in my tricep. If anyone can recommend a video specifically for this post surgery (old) trauma, I’d be very grateful. I’m sure there’s plenty of other people with this issue as my Doc said this is extremely common after this type of injury. My whole body has suffered because I no longer go to my workout group (Camp Gladiator). I need to get rid of this pain and get strong again.

thanks for this great video. I always feel devastated when I can not train really and these are some good tipps to change up my training once I have less pain.

youve saved me so much time and this was so helpful thank you!!

This is exactly the help I’ve been looking for. Thank you for such an informative video. The animations and editing made it even easier to help visualise that mind body connection. Thank you so much! I feel like I should be paying you lol :’)

I been injured since 2019 fish 🐟 processing in Alaska did it for me the thousands of fish I had to flip depending of witch side of the table saw I was the tips of my fingers were numb for months, my body adapted to all that so wrong I am still in pain, been taking 💉 on my shoulders for the arthritis, and my elbows feel different and uneven. This is the first video I see and thank very much it's has helped me so much in 2 minutes

This is excellent. Clearly and accurately described my symptoms. Thank you I'll be using this to rehab.

Very helpful. Overhead dumbbell extension and dips aggravate mine the most. It has been an issue for over thirty years. Thanks

This was honestly very helpful, thank you.

You’re the only one who has tricep tendon exercises! Thank you!

how can someone be that good.? listening to him make me realize that i am now myself a trainer in the gym.

My God, thank you! My first time with these symptoms, couldn’t figure out - tennis elbow, saw a video about Radial tunnel syndrome, then found this. It is exactly what it is. Adjusted grip and dropped weights as u suggested. Thank you!

Thanks man. Thats exactly what i needed right now

Great video and explanation. Any advice for audible snapping from tendon during some exercises?

great video, so clean and made interesting. ive experienced it after addding chest to wall hspu 3x per week, took them away added tricep isolation and its gettin better.

What helped me was an excercise with light weight and only focusing on the eccentric phase. I noticed almost instant improvements.

All the topics that need to be covered to understand it are described, why and how it may have happened, how and what to do to rehab. Perfect thanks

I was getting Triceps Tendinitis as progressive overload started resulting in lifting heavier weights. I had been doing a full body work out 5 or 6 times a week, which means I probably didn't have enough recovery time for the weight I was lifting. So, I did two things. I started using a split workout instead of full-body, and I also started using Blood Flow Restriction training instead of just heavy weights. I think this has helped, but maybe too early to say for sure.

Thanks for this video. I was thinking that my pain was due to tennis elbow, but this video pinpoints exactly where my pain is occurring and helps to confirm that it's not tennis elbow.

Very specific and detailed video on a generalized nuisance topic... Just felt like someone heard my elbows pain

I am here because I have made significant changes in Frequency, Volume and intensity 😁. And at the age of 45 I'm no spring chicken. At the gym with my son we thought it would be fun to attempt a full stack (91kg) tricep push down, which I managed 3 reps. My left elbow pain is worse than the right

Amazing content with quality information, just what I needed 💯

thank you, this is such a niche problem to solve and it is so nice that the algorithm threw this in my face, doing everything right already then, cool :)

This is the best video I've seen on this topic and I've been researching for a few weeks now. My tricep got messed up from doing too much macebell 360's I'll follow your tips and see how I can. Thanks a lot!

Best explanation I’ve seen for this. Thanks

A very informative piece on this injury and rehab suggestions. Thanks Mate.

I seemed to injure my left triceps at the end of last year when I started to introduce more heavy singles, twos and threes in the bench as I was building for a max lift. It's not even pain, but more discomfort, but definately need to check it out.

Exactly what I have. Was going to hard on the bench and tricep. First it was my left elbow and it got better after about two month then the other one went.

Awesome video. It addresses exactly the problem/pain I experienced with my right elbow after overloading with incline dumbells triceps extension. It is not more than two weeks since this happened, but I have started to notice improvements after I have carefully started training with light weights triceps pushdown with rope and dumbell overhead press. I will also try some of the other exercises i the vido eventually. I have more faith in careful training of the muscles/tendons in the area where the pain has occurred than massage , ice and silly exercises that relieve the pain for a short while. It has at least helped me in the past with other injuries I've had where the only help I got from the doctor was painkillers

oh my god is this what i have been looking for for years

Appreciate the help. I threw a punch, similar to an uppercut, but horizontally to the torso, from a bladed stance, and when I pulled my punch back, that's when I think I hurt it. I've seen mild swelling at the actual elbow, with localized pain at the back of the arm bone, though very mild. I thought I had just pulled a tendon or something, but couldn't find info about it until your video. Thanks.

Omg this is what I have. I live with 3 out of 10 pain

this is exactly what i've been looking for

Beautiful man, thank you for this! It was so difficult to get an answer for this since I didn't't know the exact name of the injury. I kept getting tennis elbow videos until I saw yours.

this is an AMAZING video, im going to try it out at the gym today. THANK YOU

This is one of the best channel i have ever seen Such a great explanation thank you i will recover soon 🙏 2 physiotherapist < this channel 💯💪

I like how *every video* says 12 weeks rehab. At least you put in that little disclaimer "or more". I wish that people wouldn't honey coat it so much. It might depend on age and a 20 yr old *might* recover in 12 weeks, but as you get closer to 50, i'd say you're looking at 6-12 months of daily rehab before you're back to an approximation of normal.

I'm a begginer in fitness and due to a left wrist injury I stopped working out for three months. Yesterday I thought I was good to go at it again with the same load and rythm and did a push ups set. Today I woke up to this elbow pain in my left arm and it's swollen too, feels bad man

Oh my goodness thank you for this!

This is gold.

This is literally the only relevant information I found everywhere on the Internet. I've been having this nagging pain especially after push works. Weirdly, it got 10x worse after starting Brazilian Jiu jitsu. For some reason pushing people off of me really busted up my elbows

Thank you so much, plain and simple

This is someone who knows exactly what he’s saying

the best❤

Very enjoyable and informative clip, thanks a lot.

Good video 👍🏽 very thorough and informative

Thank you so much for including a diagnosis section as well! Great content

This is gold!

Thank you for the video! What’s so strange for me is I can do sets of Parallel bar dips with no problem but any type of skill crusher will hurt by elbows for days.

My tennis elbow started when i added dumbbell skull crushers to my tricep workout. Used ez bar for skull crushers for 30+ years and never had a issue.

Lol gym bros would tell you to not lockout the elbow during press😆 Thank you for detailed explanation on such a helpful information. Thank you so much!

Thank you for the video!

thanks a lot for the video!

Great video…thank you.

There is a quick fix for tricep elbow pain, you need to stabilize the shoulder blade around the rib cage to engage serratus anterior as a stabilizer.

thank you doctor, I admire you

Many thanks 🙏
