Because the concentric portion shortens/tightens the tissue making the situation worse. Eccentric loading lengthens while strengthening providing a nice stretch to overly tight tissues.
what if you have tennis elbows on both elbows? I had the left one for a year(I work with my arms all day long) then I got the right one lately. Ugh! I tried this flex bar and it got more sore after one use. Maybe I should use the band on one arm that I'm not working on while i twist the one I focus on?
@@danm1063 I have tennis and golfers elbow on both arms, so I do that: I ask one of my family members to do the initial twist and then my arm does the eccentric exercise.
WOW - THANK YOU!!! You are the only one who has properly explained how to use this. I just tried your method and WOW it works!!!! Thanks again!
This video should be referred in flexbar’s manual.
thank you I bought one 2 months ago and couldn't figure it out....
Excellent video. Thank you. I like the guy. On the edge and no bullshi...
excellent explanation thank you so much
Love how he FLIPS everyone at 2:40 mark. Haha it works the FU-flexor
Great stuff. What is the reason that eccentric (vs concentric) overload works best for tendon rehab?

This guy reminds me of pollster Frank Luntz
Some dissonance here- physical therapists and overweight and out of shape
People can know different than what they do. Picture an old coach walking with a cane can offer experience to a 20 something powerhouse.

because people do it slowly. check keith baar work on why isometrics is better than eccentrics
