  • Today, Dr. Todd is speaking to all of you experiencing tennis elbow pain, aka lateral epicondylitis. With tennis elbow, gym exercises to avoid are related to flexion. Much weightlifting and strength training heavily emphasizes flexion, so if you are wondering can you still work out if you have tennis elbow, the short answer is yes - but you’ll be working some new elements into your regimen, and backing away from certain flexion movements affecting the elbow.
    In this episode, Dr. Todd introduces essential mobility tools for tennis elbow massage (including a tennis elbow brace), tennis elbow stretches, and a few simple tennis elbow exercises that enable you to perform effective tennis elbow treatment on yourself over time.

    Thanks Dr. Todd for teaching the "why" related to "tennis elbow" pain. I hurt my shoulder lifting weights many years ago with no rehab. I eventually developed tennis elbow playing too much baseball/softball. Now it returned when playing golf (I cast the club when I swing). I have been stretching and strengthening my shoulder and it has helped my tennis elbow alot. Until recently I didn't know that shoulder problems could possibly relate to my problem. again, thanks!

    Thank you for this video... I am about to get my third set of injections for medial and lateral epicondylitis in BOTH elbows. The medial on both sides was creeping in when I thought I needed to become more active (lifting) to "loosen up" and get in better shape. I was doing upright rows and both lateral epicondyles fired off and here I am. I have been through 3 months of PT prior to my first injections but it's my own fault for not letting them heal. I do the stretches and exercises learned in PT ... butI definitely did not rest on other activities. The good news is that I feel that my left elbow (both sides) is 85% better... medial on the right is almost zero discomfort but right lateral is horrible... again. I came across this video to discover strength exercises I can do while letting my elbows fully heal. I will definitely check out more of your kettle bell videos... I have not used kettle bells too much... all old school lifting I "learned" in Navy Special Operations circa early 1990s. I guess it's time to evolve.

    I have had pain on the outside inside and center of my elbow for about 2 months now and it doesn't seem to be getting any better it gets a little bit better for a while and then all the sudden gets worse again and resting doesn't seem to be fixing it it's not bad pain and it doesn't hurt constantly but obviously I can't lift anything heavy or squeeze anything hard and it is very discouraging at this point because even with rest it seems to get better and then starts to go and get worse again

    hey, I have triceps tendonits and could really use some help on what to do step by step. Its been around 6 months from the first time I had to stop working out because of the pain and about 1 month after that I got back into working out. I have less pain now but I still feel it when I extend my arm. I'm currently not doing press exercises and I'm doing some strenghtening exercises and massaging the triceps for it. I'd really appreciate some help on this if you could

    Thank you so much…. I got my tennis elbow from exactly the same reason you did - upright rows !! Will never put myself in that position again. And I did intuitively start using ankle straps on my wrists last week (before I saw your video) to help me do the same exercises without needing to grip and cause more pain in the extensor muscles.
    Extension is Life - AMEN to that !!

    I also have been reckless after my Hernia surgery years ago: It's like when you are that age, you almost never listen to anyone.
    I currently have tennis elbow and I currently recovering well away from the gym. I didn't go to the gym for more than 2 months now and almost recovered fully, it's better to quit and recover for 2 - 3 month instead of going through surgery and wait 6 months.

    Sincere request. Please reply. A guy with skinny forearms wants to do forearm exercises to look decently masculine. So elbow flexions are a must, right? No upright rows of course. So would you say PREHABING the elbow extensors with your recommended exercises every alternate day then doing elbow flexions every other day is a smart way to avoid injuries and get to look decently male (no embarrassing skinny forearms) in a few months?

    Hello, I had a question for you! If I wear elbow sleeves while lifting do you think it is still possible to heal the tennis elbow while still weight training? I am lifting super light and using straps for anything that would require a lot of forearm or grip. I just really enjoy lifting weights and have been for 2 years. Thank you!

    • @GonsteadSpineWellness
      @GonsteadSpineWellness  8 месяцев назад

      if you can feel the pain while you lift, you are further loading the irritated tissues and therefor making it very difficult/if not impossible for these tissues to heal... as long as you can train around the injury and not have a single incident where you trigger the pain. -Dr Todd

  • @ta3263
    @ta3263 Год назад +4

    You did explain what is tennis elbow and what aggravates it. But your video thumbnail specifically mentions what exercises to avoid which you didn’t talk about at all besides upright rows. I guess next time please stick to what you shows on the thumbnail.

    • @GonsteadSpineWellness
      @GonsteadSpineWellness  Год назад +3

      The major exercise to avoid is an upright row or that type of movement. If you currently have tennis elbow, avoid any exercise that recreates the pain, as that is stressing the injured tissue and will prolong healing. Anything that stresses the hand/wrist into flexion (palm getting closer to wrist), that makes you have to resist that force, is going to stress the extensor musculature and likely be off limits with an active case.

      cortisone will provide pain relief temporarily but makes the tendon actually weaker so you should probably not stick to pt and rest

    Hey Doc. Thanks for this upload. I’m new to tennis elbow and my orthopedic doctor said that in a pushing motion I’m good to go while avoiding any pulling motion that may aggravate the injury.
    However, in doing triceps (bodyweight and suicide grip) I still noticed some pain there. I’ve been given the standard self-inducing therapy but am worried that I will lose my gains.
    I’m really at a loss in what to do - so I have three questions:
    1. What are the grip assist tools you used to maintain your athletic performance and if I use them properly without engaging the muscles you mentioned in the video that will cause inflammation and pain in the injury, would I be good to go with any and all exercises?
    2. Should I just avoid doing upper body workouts in general and focus on other exercises?
    Please and thank you.

    • @yuda212
      @yuda212 2 года назад +1

      Still not answer from the channel ,maybe use some thick elbow cuff and do lightweight for pull motion to minimize to aggravate the injury , and considerate weight for push motion, its better to exercise rather than do nothing , coz with exercise the blood flow to your injury muscle will be speedup the recovery speed several times than full recovery and do nothing, thats from my instructur advice btw

      Same here, combined with overloading dumbbell skull crushers. Had been pushing weight for the first time in years, for a period of maybe 6 months. And started pushing tri-cep dumbbell press from my usual 25,30,35, and occasional 40, to 40, and 45 lb dumbbell for multiple sets. Did one of the best arm workouts of my life, which had 3 sets of dumbbell skull-crusher with 45's, and capped it with 3 sets of barbell reverse curls. It wasn't a ton of weight, maybe 60 lbs. But the next day, my elbow was on fire. Been dealing with it with for about 6 months now.
      I've slowly worked my way back in the gym, but while I can do stuff like bench press, and most pushing exercises without any issue, pulling exercises like lat pulldown, seated row, etc. and anything overly reliant upon grip, can cause me issues.
