  • I eat foods that make me feel my best and nothing makes me feel better than PLANTS! After eating this way for well over 10 years I continue to improve my health, fitness and skills in the kitchen. The best part is I NEVER get tired of the food. People often ask if I miss meat and after seeing what I eat, I think you will know my answer.
    Let me know what you thought of the day! Do you have any questions? How about those flips!? I was sooo stoked to learn some new tricks.
    What do you want to see next? More vlogs? Suggestions down below!

    When gripping a bar, try to shift it more towards the middle of your palm instead of letting the weight hang on the tips of your fingers. Your ring finger is attached to the tendon you feel the pain in. When your fingers aren't loaded with excessive amounts of stress, neither are the tendons of your elbows.

    Most of the time "Golfer's elbow" actually comes from finger flexors not wrist flexors. Try using finger extensor bands for awhile and see if that helps you issue.
    As a climber I often use finger extensor bands in my training to help balance all the gripping. The wrist extension exercise you've been doing still requires you to flex your fingers to hold the dumbbell, even more-so than usual since the weight will be resting in the fingers instead of resting in your palm, as it would for most other exercises.
    You could also see if you can find a therapist who can do MFR (slow release of fascia using their fingers or guasha) for your forearm and bicep. Lastly, try more dead hanging. It may seem counterintuitive but progressively overloading your strength with the deadhang (eventually one handed + 10% of your bodyweight as additional load) for sets of 20s-60s can really strengthen the tendons of your entire forearm and simultaneously strengthen and stretch the lats/serratus/deltoids/pecs. This can alleviate your upper limbs from some pressure which might help when you sleep not needed to crunch up so much. Prior to sleeping, practice extending your spine and opening your chest, stretching biceps, forearms, fingers and try to sleep on your back, palms facing the ceiling, no pillow under the head (thin pillow or folded cloth is fine) small cushion under the knees.
    Hope this helps!
    Another great video from the Simnett fam. Enjoying your content. =]

    I had golfer's elbow a while ago. If you do a lot of work that involves grip, then the best thing you can do is have a really firm grip with the palm of your hand around the implement, not putting pressure on your finger tendons to do the gripping. I think I saw a video about it on Athlean-X once upon a time that explained it. Having a loose grip on heavy objects with just your fingers or inner knuckles is what can cause problems. So I started gripping things really hard, using liquid chalk usually, not letting my grip falter. And also using straps if the weight is too heavy for a firm grip. After making that simple change, my golfer's elbow pretty much went away on its own and hasn't returned.

    Look, easiest way to fix that golfers elbow permamently is to take some hair bands or rubber bands, put it almost at the top of your fingers and open your hand.
    Find a rubber band or multiple so you can only do 15-20 reps.
    Do 15-20 reps for 3-5 sets, enjoy the pump and never having golfers elbow again :)

    For elbow 1- try to sleep with wrist and elbow not bent. Some people even wear wrist guards to keep neutral. 2- studies show that eccentric exercises work best when first exercising than slowly return to regular exercises . 3- rest ,rest ,rest ! Remember golfers elbow /medial epicondyle is a repetitive injury .

    Having a small/flat pillow under your knees may help. You can try this for a week and see if you feel any improvement in your tendons. So, our body needs to relax when we rest; having them in uncomfortable positions may hinder that. If you don't turn a lot while sleeping, you leave your hands in comfortable positions. Having a pillow under your knees will achieve two things:
    1) It will stop you from turning a lot(sleep on your back) there by leaving you with un-contorted limbs.
    2) It also relieves some of the stress from your lower back(you can imagine that they are not sort of hanging from an arched back)
    Love the vids and the ideas you put out. Keep growing!

    I had the "golfers elbow" issue too- mainly from adding in too many chin-ups too quickly and also from sleeping on it the wrong way. What helped me most was elevating my arm on a pillow while sleeping and also doing bottoms up hammer work with a 5lb hammer for the wrist and forearm (rotations right/left and up/down)

    Try using a pvc pipe on your forearms. Place it on the ground, kneel in front of it, place your forearms on the pipe and move back and form with a bit of pressure. Your forearms are probably jacked by over use. This should help. This also helps for those who use a mouse all day.

    Derek! Big fan wife and I've watched for years, your elbow issue is called tendonitis. you can call it golfers elbow and gripping enflames it but the original cause of it is not adequately warming up the forearm muscles that are connected directly to the underside of the forearm.... I've had that for years...I'll run in the gym and start doing pull ups or something without adequately warming up my grippers.. Also under no circumstances no matter what angle you're trying to hit on your chest or on your shoulders should you bring your elbows outside of scraping your ribs upon passing. Not even 45 on a push up it causes a nerve glide in the elbow and eventually can causes nerve stenosis...narrowing of the nerve channel through the elbow. Rock N Roll. Love ya guys!!

    With joints swelling it's also very important to get in your fats and proper hydration with minerals because all those three things are needed for your body to produce and use enough mucus to coat your joints. Increasing omega 3s (EPA and DHA) is also very important because those are required to make anti-inflammatory PGEs.

    Thanks for another great video. Your attitude and great meal ideas always inspire me and lift me up!
    I have a doctor/chiropractor helping me with some nerve compression in my shoulder. I, too, sleep with my arms pulled into my chest. It's even worse in the winter when it's cold. What helps me from morning pain is using a body pillow. Wrapping my arms around it or draping over it opens up my chest at night and keeps me from sleeping with arms so tensely pulled in. That and staying off my phone so I'm not bending my arms up the same way when I'm awake. ;)

    For golfer's elbow, you can do pre-hab/isolation work at the end of your sessions, in the form of bicep curls. You want to pick a very low weight and a high rep range. 5 pounds for 30-50 reps over a few sets is a good starting point. You might want to check out the work of Dr. Steven Low, specifically the book "Overcoming Tendonitis".

    I have problems with my left elbow. My doctor showed me a great stretch. Basically do cat stretch, (on the floor on hands and knees) but put both hands facing the fingertips towards your knees. Then move your whole body backwards and your forearms should start to feel really stretched. Move as far back as you can and work your way further back each time. The key though is to hold that stretch for at least two minutes and take really deep breaths. You might already know this stretch but if not, it really has helped me.

    I actually tried this the other day! Made tofu egg salad with this and I found the texture more similar to tuna rather than egg… ! I thought it was amazing! Got it in Coombs along with a giant jug of valentinas!!! 💕 thanks for the vid! 💕

    The " no tofu " product is amazing when you use it to make feta !! Try it , I'm sure you'll love it !! Love your videos so much. I'm an OG subscriber .
