      Hey DocJo! new subscriber. couple of questions. 1. what I think is golfers elbow - main pain is right on the ball of that joint inside/bottom of elbow. sensitive to the touch. on doing the mobilization I can feel it in the muscles in that area. does it sound like golfers elbow to you? 2. I have ordered the bar. is there something i can use for the twist exercise until i receive it? Tried with a rolled up hand towel with limited success. thanks!

      @@Chess2000 the Tyler twist exercise with the Thera bar involves aggressively loading the eccentric portion of the movement. This is generally not trained, which is why it is more susceptible to injury. The tendons are no longer inflamed, but disorganized, so you need to progressively overload the tendons to make them stronger. I now perform a regular elbow routine to prevent this issue from happening again.

Should I wear the elbow band while working? I have one called "bandit." Thanks !

    HI, thanks for the great video. How long or how many hours should one wear the brace?

      You're welcome. Mainly just when you are doing activities that feel like are irritating it.

    I work as a IT sys admin and I have this in both of my arms. The left one isn't really bad but the right on (figures) is a pain in the ass. I've got an armband like this one that I'll be using more often and these stretches should help out a ton. I've basically went a week without using my right arm figuring it'd get better faster. I don't think it did. Very information video and easy to follow.
