    I am going to try this. Thank you. Do you have any tips for healing lateral epicondylitis aka “tennis elbow”? Thank you again!

    • @sendykafitover40
      @sendykafitover40  2 дня назад +1

      Well, I'm just an anthropologist. Not qualified to give any guideline for tennis elbow recovery. But I'd say that you first stop whatever you were doing that have caused it. Give your elbow time to rest. And then consult with a physician or a doctor.
      Resting is at least as important as exercising, if not more.😉

    Cool beans! Have you checked out Sandow's light dumbell system? One of his exercises, one that I just love, has you holding the light dumbbell both arms outstreched like a cross and doing alternating contractions. The light weight makes it pretty much an isometric movement but since the arm is out and up, you get maximal biceps contraction. I get the best pump from these and it feels to me like some kind of "primal" or optimal movement. Just feels so good for the arms and upper kinetic chain.

      I think you can do isometrics with any muscle group. But it's the first time I hear the words "stomach vacuum exercises" what does it look like? Wouldn't a plank (another isometric exercise) cover those muscles?

      @@sendykafitover40the stomach vacuum exercise is a TVA exercise and core. Standing you suck your stomach in and lift.. hold for at least 30 seconds etc. I have followed some female bodybuilders in the past and they use it a lot for their abdomen work.. 🤷‍♀️.. I’ve done planks in the past and haven’t felt that it did too much for that particular area. But I’m going off of “feelings”, which is not scientific 😂
      There are a lot of demonstrations of this exercise on RUclips. Was just wondering if it was something you would suggest. Thank you for your time.

    Many of those posting to this video fall victim to the 1% fallacy. 99% of something is correct, right, and helpful. Those sniping are focusing on the 1% that they disagree about. If something does not suit you, by all means make your own video( if you have the intelligence to do so) , have people watch it ( if that actually happens) , comment, and learn about the experience.

    This is not based on science. Isometric exercises are really bad at improving strength and muscle size - this is well known in the scientific litterature. It would be much better to do dynamic movement using the whole range of motion for reps, while making sure to not use the rest body.

He even ridicules dynamic exercises.
