    Hey guys, I wanted to share some of my experiences and thoughts on things that contribute to finger pain and what I believe is tenosynovitis. I've had tweaky painful fingers for most of my time spent as a climber and only recently have I felt like I've really started to understand and get a handle on things.

    I’m not sure why, but the two niche cause timestamps in the video are incorrect. The fixed timestamps are in the description! Sorry about that 😓

    Thanks for this video -- I've been going a little harder than usual (for me) for the last couple months (3 sessions a week), and I've definitely started feeling some pain in my fingers. My warm up consists of 4-5 reps of 8 second hangs on a level 20mm edge (along with some pull ups, push ups, leg stretches etc). For the first 2-3 reps, I no-hang or i'll have one foot on the ground, building up to a couple regular hangs. During those hangs i typically feel the fingers complaining a bit, particularly the middle finger like you said. I'm pretty thin / don't weigh a ton for a guy, so i'm skeptical about trying to hang with more weight than just my body weight atm.
    Last week, I was an idiot and deadpointed straight to a probably 15-20mm crimp hold without warming up (rare), and it hurt quite a bit. I've also noticed that as i progress in the session, any kind of pain subsides -- i guess it takes the joints some time to warm up.
    I think my warm ups are helpful, but I do let my session drag on for too long sometimes like you said -- more focus (and sleep & better quality food & hydration) would all help.
    So yeah Just some random thoughts, I can definitely relate -- looking forward to watching more of your content!

      @@johnpica1082 I’m sorry to hear that :( hopefully your feeling a little better after some rest. And yeah keeping sessions from dragging on is something I struggled with a lot (still do sometimes). I hope the video was some help and I’d love to hear in the future if things end up helping!

    Ty for video! I also found it felt super risky to try any hard crimpy latches at the end of the session or if they just felt bad that day. I also found myself doing constant but light exercises with a Thera band throughout my session helped me :)

      I’m sorry it’s too generic for you, but not everyone is always on the same page with the fundamentals. They’re very important for preventing injuries like this which come from overuse, and they’re all things that I’ve had experience with affecting my overuse injuries in the past 😅

    Holy crap, dude. Stop talking in circles. Even a simple script would have prevented this.

      Yeah the script I wrote for this video could have been a little bit more concise 😁

    how i got rid of tenosynovitis and proceeds to yap incessantly without going straight to the point. i mean you could start of an introduction to the problem and offer solution in a guideline format and maybe add commentary for the end but this was a total waste of time. for people with more acute problems this video is garbage. learn to structure your content next time man. also you can add time stamps on the description not on the video. its clickable and will direct future viewers to actual time.

    • @tommysegovia

      @@thegamingzaddy yeah the guideline format was sort of my plan but I do agree it could have been a lot more concise. It’s the first time I’ve really made this format of video and there’s definitely a lot left to learn! The description time stamp is a good idea, I’ll change that :) and yes I agree, my intention of the video was not to diagnosis and give prognosis for acute injury, more just giving background and perspective on how I got rid of my tenosynovitis, which in my experience as well as other people I know, is typically not an acute injury but prolonged issues in training or recovery. Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts!

      I have to disagree, I think it was very thought out and informative. He talked about a lot if important things that can couse this problem. This is such a nagging kind of pain, that talking about rehab and excersises is probably not something that is going to work for everyone. The advice in this video is applicable for everybody. If you are looking for a quick fix, you wont find one.
