    Great to see John with his kids! I built the portaledge frames for him at A5 and The North Face. Then he called me 3 years ago and I built the first production D4 ledge frames at Barry's shop in Durango during vacation time from my full time job. What a great experience it was to work with John and Barry again after 20 years!! I miss those guys. I wish I could continue to work with them.

    Thanks a million! I have dealt with the problem for more than a year and tried a lot of different approaches / exercises / physiotherapy with little results. Your advices really made a difference. It's so great that there are people like you who share real information that does help. I am really grateful since the injury and not knowing how to fix it (thus having to stay away from climbing for many months for the first time in 10 years) was really depressing.

Eu sei o quanto é difícil suportar dores e fingir q está tudo bem perante a sociedd quando realmente vc só quer deitar e ficar chorando... apesar disso tudo eu tenho um conselho p vc: não desista! Sonhe e se imagine bem veja vc curado busque novas alternativas, eu já tentei n opções.... vc vai conseguir acredite em vc! Use o yt p pesquisar novas ideias, fale sobre o q vc sente com alguém de confiança... continue a tentar!

    There are many factors in ways to treat tennis elbow. One place I found that succeeds in merging these is the trevs remedy tactic (google it if you're interested) it's the best blueprint that I've heard of. Check out all the incredible information .

    Isn't the frictional force = F• cos(ø)µ ? Force is the climbers weight, ø= the angle of the foot, µ=static coefficient of friction.

    Hey, good luck with the recovery process! It's interesting that you post this today, as I talked to a friend of mine, who has impingement syndrom and we took about half an hour with another friend who is a physio and functional trainer, going through all kinds of exercise and stretches etc.. It's definitely a problem that a lot of climbers have due to the abundance of lat-activation needed for climbing...

    Thanks for this great video, regarding golfer's elbow or the climber's elbow, it's the second exercise the you did with the flex bar is what helps (not the first one which helps Tennis's elbow), basically it's lengthening the muscle against the resistance of the bar (eccentric exercise)

    hello, I have been dealing with golfer's elbow on left for bout a year, got steroid shot last January n got better, tried to get back to tri's n bi exercises n did ok til aggravated it, then steroid pack august 2014, back to band exercise only for arms and some yoga and then downward facing dog got me this march and then steroid pack april this year. My arms are as flabby as can be. I have neck and back spine issues so I need to exercise for me to have less pain. It is hard to exercise from mid body to lower and leave upper alone with discomfort. Been depressed a bout. Was going to look into surgery(not a fan of surgery) or prolotherapy shots and then i came across this. Been doing this 3 days now, elbow not waking me up at nite, not purposely not using left arm, I feel totally regular. I am a lefty and I am automatically using my hand like there is no injury to it. I think this may actually work.....love doing the scrapping actually, then stretch then exercise. May need to upgrade to blue flexbar in a month or so. Was using red before this and doing physical therapy exercises and ice while it was bothering me anyway. I hope this keeps on progressing positively and thank you so very much. Maybe I can get back to upper body exercises too soon. I will take it slow, that is not something I do normally, move slow or do slow but i will.

    I agree with what you say! That bang-for-the buck part is definitely true if you're looking at climbing grades and achieving them time efficiently. What's your opinion on long-term success in that respect? I find that if you start improving your finger strength early on, you might be able to avoid pateaus later on, even if you don't start out as quickly as if you just climbed. What do you think?

    • @donmcgrath52
      @donmcgrath52 6 років тому

      Thanks for the comment. Just seeing it now! Sorry. My experience tells me that while you can increase finger strength quickly with hangboard training, the risk of injury is fairly high. I'm 54 now so I'm very sensitive to how injuries set me back. I'm a fan of building finger strength through bouldering. I think it's just as effective in the long run and your less likely to injure a tendon.
