    Another cracker daily REHAB session for you this week for people with distal bicep tendon 'tendinopathy' or weakness following a strain or mid-substance tendon tear. These 3 exercises work well in that progressive strengthening phase - after the initial eccentric and low level work, to bridge the gap into normal dumbbell bicep curls and heavier back pulling work.
    1) ISOMETRIC FLEXION - FIXED BARBELL
    2) BARBELL BICEP CURL - CLOSED CHAIN
    3) BANDED BICEP CURL - PRONATION BIAS

      @@seanbouthiette6256 I went to a local sports physio who worked some real magic. For a period of about 4 weeks, one session a week, he massaged the area and worked out whatever issue there was. Focus started at the direct spot on the upper forearm, then included lower forearm, both heads of the bicep and also the area of the pec that joins at the shoulder. A couple months later and full usability has returned, even to the point of my left arm now being stronger than my right

    I have had weakened/sore and very fatigued biceps for 1 year 10 months because i did way too many repetitions on bicep curls during one day at gym. Here are who I went to for help:
    1x physio
    3x acupuncture
    4x osteopath
    1x neurologist
    2x doctor
    1x MRI
    I think this might have saved my life. My phsyio told me to just do curls with slow negatives but it was sore. I am angry my osteopath didn't tell me this fix. I have read every comment under this vid and am excited to try this tomorrow and live life again normally if this works.

    Good video mate! Seriously these where the most annoying pains and injuries I had. While heavily overloading the biceps (much later in 20 years I discovered overloading was the cause) I had complaints from my 26th....and later 3 times again. No physiotherapist could help me. When I got into my mid 40's a physiotherapist explained that I could easily progress and heal with eccentric workouts. Nowadays my biceps program has always one eccentric workout.

      @@staringweezle From what I know, and from what my physiotherapist has told me, when rehabbing a tendinopathy your tendon should not be sore the next day. That lest you know you have overdone it. If it's sore during the exercises and the soreness is between 1-3/10 that's fine. If it's any higher you are also overdoing it.

    So, I had distal clavicle resection surgery 7 weeks ago. For 2 years I have complained about the distal bicep hurting. Finally my surgeon sent me for an MRI of my neck and distal bicep area. She isn’t sure what area the pain is coming from. So I had an MRI yesterday. Her concern was that my shoulder would hurt during the distal bicep mri since you have to lay in a crazy position and I had shoulder surgery 7 weeks ago. My shoulder was fine. When I got out of the mri machine I was almost crying because my distal bicep was hurting so bad. He had me sit and relax it for a little while.

    This guy knows his shit! Question, if I have torn the tendon I assume I’d be in a great deal of pain at all times especially when trying to pick things up such as a small child? Or would the pain be constant?
    I was following Mike Mentzer’s bicep lat pull down with some heavy weight about six months ago and ever since I get serious pain when doing lat pull downs and bicep curls are next to impossible with decent weight!
    The mistake I made though was continuing to train using a more pronated grip when doing back rows and lat pull downs using D attachments but I still feel the pain the day after.
    I have now stopped all upper body exercises and focusing only on supernated shoulder presses and leg exercises!

      @physiorehab I'm basically doing lots of stretching(whole body) followed by very very light weight exersizes. Like, 12.5 pound curls to start off with on each arm for reps of 20 x 2 per day. Which is a fraction of what I was doing before this. (42.5 lbs per arm for 9-11 reps). I was told not to just stop lifting abruptly but start very light, like a beginner again and to build back up where there's no pain in a few months with gradually higher weights. Like a stair case but with weights. As a couple weeks pass, add 5 pounds to the exersize to strengthen the tendon again and keep blood flowing to it. Besides squats I think I'm going to do this for my entire regimine that used cables for exersizes. Ie: bench press, chest Flys etc etc. Extremely light weight just to keep blood flowing everywhere without over doing it. Super high reps, extremely low weight, and graduate up SLOWLY.

For a few weeks, it felt sore like bicep soreness after curling when you haven't don't it in a while. I thought that's what it was. Since then I've had some soreness which I though nothing about until today when I I brought my forearm into the bicep to scratch my head and felt soreness up on my forearm next to but just below the elbow bend. I didn't think anything of it until today. I'm hoping I didn't ruin a tendon.

    Wow, this video is something different. Thank you very much 😊
    Could you please tell me if I could do those exercises in between training days (on my off days)?
    I don’t do the proper training plan yet because of this injury but do legs, core and some push exercises.
    I have been overtraining my biceps’ for few weeks and got this injury shown in your video. I thought that a deload week or two in between plans would just make it go away but it’s been 5 weeks off training now and still painful.
    I went to fizjo, got it massaged as it was very tense and I was told I was lucky it didn’t rupture.
    I hope that with some stretching plus your exercises it will go away and I could start a new plan.
    All the best for you a d thank you for the reply.

    Hi - I have Distal Bicep Tendonitis from playing Golf and slightly (!!) overdoing it at the driving range. I have rested for two weeks and the pain has subsided. I can now extend my arm totally without pain in the elbow. Great exercises I will be using for the next 4-6 weeks. Medium to longer term what do I need to do to make sure once healed the injury does not return. Is it just standard bicep strengthening or are there more specific exercises that would focus on that tendon both in the shoulder and at the elbow. Thanks,

    Best video I've seen on distal bicep rehab after a year of this frustrating problem. How long does it usually take for this issue to resolve by using good practices like these? I feel like I've been trying to conservatively strengthen below pain (though completely below pain is next to impossible) for this entire year with almost no improvement. It still hurts just to stretch and yawn in the morning, because my tendon contracts. I've seen a physiotherapist to no avail and still don't know if I'm training too hard or too little.

    What would your advice be for smokers or people who have recently quit vaping and nicotine use. I know nicotine constricts blood vessels and thus the tendons take longer to heal and adapt. But what would your advice be for a bicep tear muscle bells or partial tendon tear? In terms of rehabilitation, supplementation, and adapting training?

    My TEENdon is alright. I overloaded my biceps last week and I don't feel pain nowhere near the TEEndons but in the belly of the muscle. My mobility is 99% normal. There's something there. I feel pain when I lift the arm and try to extend the arm to the max, then I feel that pain/burn in the belly of the biceps. I feel like the short head of the Bi is strained cause if I press close to the corticoid process (when arm lifted)I feel that burn. No pain whatsoever when flexing the biceps neither pronated or supinated.
