    Thanks! Exercice with the bar!
    You say 3 sets and 15 reps ok.
    》 How long should I keep this position each rep?

      It's all about the eccentric or negative part of the rep. Tendons respond well to slow negative reps. Try and aim for a 4 second negative rep with the bar

    Hello! Ive had golfers elbow for about a month but the pain has almost disapeared doing some exercices and stretches.
    Do you know at what stage someone can start playing tennis again? Im afraid that playing again could make the pain come back. Thanks👍

      What I usually recommend for my patients is to check if there are any modifications that they can make to their equipment - fresh overgrip, change strings and adjust the tension and possibly a racquet change if this issue keeps occurring. Technique is also important so if you've had a coach or tennis pro check your technique to rule out any major technique errors then you're on the right track. Return to play slowly, start off with a short session with a partner maybe 15-30 mins and then watch for any increased pain the following day. If there's no increase in pain then have another short session 1-2 days later. Repeat this for a week and then increase your hitting time each session, again watching for any increase in elbow pain. Rule of thumb is if there's no pain the day after a session then you know that you haven't over done it.

      @@primehealthco_ i think technique has been a big part for me. When i was young i played at national level and now 10 years later i do not have the same technique and footwork i used to have but still want to generate all that power i used to have. With the wippy technique ive always used to generate spin i think i got myself into a golfers elbow injury. For now i have noticed that taking my racket up higher when preparing for a swing helps a great deal because i can generate the power with my rotation and body and not just the elbow/forearm pronation to generate the spin/swing ive always used when i was younger.

    Yep had golfers elbow from tennis (I don’t play golf). So shouldn’t it be called tennis elbow?

      @@Batwam0 I know they are not the same thing, that's why im saying golfers elbow should be converted to tennis elbow. Get it?
