These exercises are amazing! I'd had elbow pain for a couple of weeks, progessively feeling worse. Within 3 days of doing the exercises my elbow is pain free and back to normal. I also used ice and heat a couple of times each day. Being age 62, there's often a new ailment each morning, sometimes for no apparent reason, but UA-cam often has the answer! I really recommend these exercises for golfer's elbow. Thank you!
my I ask you why do you alternate heat and cold? I have this since a week and it totally depressed me because I can't workout anymore, I even had crazy intruse taughts about just cutting my arm to get ride of the ache
@TakeElite If I understand it correctly, ice is used first to help reduce inflammation: to help move blood out of the area and reduce swelling. Then heat is used afterward to bring blood back into the area. This process helps the injury to heal quicker.
A swear to god this works I've had golfers and tennis elbow for about 3 years and tried this out I'm now pain free and it practically disappeared the next day and back doing pull ups in the gym now such a relief can't believe it 100% happy days 💪
Used these excercises for the last two weeks in addition to 2 others and my golfer’s elbow is almost completely gone. I had it for 15 months before watching this video. Thank you so much for these exercises, they were key to fixing it.
I've had golfers elbow for close to a year & just started these exercises, which are helping tremendously. You're very pleasant, straight to the point & easy to watch. Thank you 🙏
Thank you for posting this video! I followed your routine, once every 2 days- while incorporating some basic bicep / shoulder/ tricep exercises and progressive overload. After 6-7 weeks -i am now fully healed, with a significant increase in forearm size, and strength. Cheers!
@RehabScience hellow sir i noticed you reply to the comments ao i decided to ask this question, i used a 3 kg dumbell and tested the two exercises and the first one. I didn't feel any pain at all so does that mean this is not the problem that ihave and ishoild be searching for other things ? Or do i need to just find other exercises ? Or mayhe it doesn't matter, this will heal my elbow pain regardless of whether i felt pain during these exercises or no ? Would appreciate your reply thanks for the quick and informative video.
I felt relief instantly. Will definitely be keeping them up thank you! Once the symptoms/pain is completely gone would you recommend doing these as a preventative measure, if so how often? As my pain goes away completely to sometimes come back again months later. I'm trying to stop it from happening in the first place as much as possible. Thanks
I’m glad to hear the video was helpful! Yes, once the symptoms have resolved, I would recommend performing these 2 to 3 times per week to help reduce the risk that the issue returns.

My grandma got golfer's elbow from all the gardening she does, so I sent this bad boy to her and in just a few days, she says almost all the pain is gone. Thank you!
I’m glad to hear the exercises helped you! Continuing to strengthen these muscles and their tendons can definitely be a good strategy for reducing the risk that the issue comes back.
I only get this pain when i do push up. I was wondering if your pain was present all or most of the time ? Because i want to see if this is the cure for my problem.
Thank you very much for sharing these exercises. I've had long-term elbow tendon problems from climbing and am very hopeful that these will help me. I wanted to ask about how often you would recommend doing these for the best results? Also, whether it would be ok to do them on a climbing day, or whether this would tire the tendon and lead to higher injury risk. Thank you!
you exercises helped me a lot i just injured my self last week ,how long should i wait before i can start light weights?and for how long should i do your exercises as well?
@@Ava-m6r It really varies from person to person, so the primary piece of advice is to avoid exercises that cause your symptoms to flare up. This doesn’t mean they have to be avoided forever. It’s just a temporary modification until the tendons have recovered.
i have been to several physios about my elbow, and the googling i've been dooing almost always gives the same anwers(like these in this video)but the rotating one (at 5.40) is my main suspect to be worsening my problems, i have stopped all rehab for now because i only got progressivly worse by doing them. When i dont do any rehab i get pain when working or doing anything really but still could use my arm, but when i started the exercises it got so bad that i couldnt do anything. I also worked my other arm lightly a few times and it got alarming tendencies immediately(but not horrible )
The last exercise is the one that gives me pain, when just barely moving the weight. I’ve noticed if I grip really tightly I can get partway through the exercise, but with a loose grip it’s very painful. Is there something I’m doing wrong?
I went to doctor and he just gave me ibuprofen and asked me to rest....he didn't said for how long, just demands me to rest until it heals…I saw video saying it could take until 3 years to heal and it totally depressed me. I really need to workout it is cathartic for me. Seeing comments saying your exercises helped them gave me hope
right.. i have this condition for about a year now and have visited many doctors and i stumbled upon this video today . these excersises deem to be useful for healing but it may take a while ...
How long after the first pain occurs do we try this strength programm? I mean doc prescribes painkillers & we start after some days? Also if we try these excersises is it good to do cryotherapy afyerwards? Thank u 👌
Thanks for this. Do you recommend continuing training? I was doing kettlebell workouts like clean and press and pull ups. Or should I stop doing those till the golfers elbow goes away?
Hi Dr. Walters. I am suffering from medial epicondylitis on the right, which is chronic. I started with ice, rest, and the exercises that you have shared.. I am a yoga trainer and that's my only source of income, which I am unable to do now. How long would it take to get back to my regime of teaching yoga and practicing? I just started your exercises 3 days ago. Other than daily chores, I have reduced all other work involving right elbow. Please guide me through. Thank you.
It appears that I got this elbow and forearm pain from doing the dead hangs, which are supposed to be helpful for the shoulder impingement.. I'm gonna stop the dead hangs now and start doing the routine you just showed. Hopefully it helps!
I’m 16 and started going to the gym about 2 months ago after first session u developed this so took a month off as that’s what the doctor told me, just returned to gym yesterday and it’s back again bit fed up
Unfortunately, most doctors aren’t up-to-date on the research regarding these issues. While rest can help reduce pain, it won’t fix the issue. The long-term fix for these types of tendon issues is to gradually strengthen the area with exercises like I showed in this video.
Will these exercises work for a dislocated elbow? I still have pain 2 years later, when I fully extend my arm, locking my elbow out. (I can get it fully straight and locked.)
In that case, you would want to focus on tennis elbow exercises. Here is a link for my video on that topic. ua-cam.com/video/8ZTXWe81k8E/v-deo.htmlsi=C8CrUkAmqQGFxSn5
Ice and then heat. Just doing ice isn’t necessarily good because it slows blood flow. But if you include heat after icing it opens up your veins a lot more, allowing blood to reach your elbow tendons easier
Great video! I just started to have issues about 3 weeks ago, didnt know what it was, i thought it was just fatigue but did more research and i know for sure its Golfers elbow. Would you recommend to do these now, after a month its started? Or rest first then do these exercises?
@@RehabScience thank you so much! There's actually no pain when doing these exercises, only discomfort when pulling like a door or car door for example
@@AngelM55 Great to hear! In that case, I would begin performing all of them each day. Find a weight that is challenging and aim to complete 3 sets of 10-15 reps of each exercise.
i’ve suffered with both tennis and golfers elbow for years on and off , how long does it normally take to see improvement, been doing these a couple of weeks and haven’t seen any yet ?
I’m having trouble with my thumb (DeQuervain’s) at the same time actually….(had this issue before so I know it)…will these exercises aggravate it because of holding the weights? Are there any modifications that you would recommend if I am wearing my Spica splint?
Its not weakness in these areas that are responsible for Medial Epicondylitis, rather its most likely overactivity due to synergistic dominance. Strengthen your stabilizers of the Scapula/shoulder, mobilize the ribcage and mid Thoracic axis. This is how you prevent Epicondylitis, in my professional opinion
Those things are often helpful to add, but the research is most supportive of strategies that specifically load the wrist and finger flexor tendons as shown in this video.
Where is the research on this please? I have had back issues in those exact areas a year after golfers elbow began so I’d be interested in learning more
How is it possible more tension helps it heal? I’ve had golfers for around a decade. Which flares when used even moderately. I’d love to understand the mechanism at work. Because in theory my elbow should be strong a Fk given the rsi nature of my elbow
The kit includes tools that will help with the grip strengthening exercises at the beginning of the video. You will still need dumbbells for the other exercises in the video.
How long for we need to do these exercises, i have almost 2 years now and %90 better but it is still there, i did religiously 3 months but then i am wondering when we know it is not working for us to give up on exercises?
Thank you for sharing. Quick question-my child fell, and he can’t touch his shoulder with his hand; it’s like it’s locked. I took him to urgent care, and while nothing is broken, no one can tell me what’s wrong. I’m waiting for an appointment, but I was wondering if anyone could shed some light on this.
No, the exercises are different for tennis elbow. Here is a link for my video on that topic. ua-cam.com/video/8ZTXWe81k8E/v-deo.htmlsi=dC9BHlBodJeLXI6K
Some of them may help, but tennis and golfer’s elbow affect different muscles (extensors vs flexors), so you really want to focus on the exercises that target the muscles and tendons that are specifically affected.
My pain is more towards the bottom of the bicep on the inside of my elbow. Do you know what this might be called? I think its neither tennis or golfers elbow because i saw where you showed the pain would be for those and thats not where the pain is for me.
That’s where I have it too but also where he was showing. So annoying can’t even straighten my arm all the way sometimes. Just grabbing a glass of water from the top killls
@@HunterOlsen-iu8bw Yup, same with the glass of milk. Ive just been trying to rest it, havent been curling my arm. I think it takes 3-6 months to heal...
I got it by doing hand gripper exercises too much then having to pick something up the next day, those can really mess you up without feeling any pain at all when youre doing it, makes your forearms amd wrists brittle for days if yiu overdo it
these three are all easy, I barely feel it stinging on inside of elbow (left) it started when doing chin-ups, can still do those but it really stings, should I continue? dumbbell curls are a bit easier but still stings
If the stinging persists for hours after the exercises, then you may need to find another option. If the symptom goes away immediately after performing those exercises, then they are probably fine to continue doing.
@@RehabScience it goes go away immediately after the exercise! that is a bit relieving, I will keep exercising and keep a close eye on it. hopefully it will stimulate healing and strengthening. thank you Dr. Walters
i went to a physiotherapist for 2.5 weeks and it did nothing. I think they were trying to target tennis elbow not golfers. the excerises they gave me to practice didnt do anything but were quite different than these. Hope this helps!
I worry that when it hurts my golfers elbow when I do this that I'm aggravating it. Am I making it worse? I really feel the pain when doing that last exercise.
I would only perform the exercises in this video that can be done with no more than moderate pain. Pushing past this level of pain can put the tendon into a reactive state and slow the healing process.
Is it normal to experience elbow crepitus with golfers elbow? I have typical golfers elbow pain which I can't really get rid of (got worse when I rested from the gym), but any pulling or pushing movement causes crepitus in that elbow. Like a clicking/slipping/crunching noise. Could this be from the tendon issues? Nobody can tell me anything. I had an xray and was told it looked pretty normal.
I think I have this issue as well ,My grip used to be fine, but I started to have soreness and pain in wrist and whole palm, which went upto inner forearm after doing forearm curls(where you roll the barbell up using fingers), just like you did at 3:37. Since that day, my grip strength has never been the same and my arms get fatigued very quick even with 10kg dumbbells during dumbbell bicep curls and deadlifts. Do you think these movements will be beneficial in my case too as my endurance is the thing that's gone for some reason and the exercise I got it from is demonstrated here
It’s hard to say for sure, without doing evaluation and knowing more information, but your symptoms definitely could be associated with golfers elbow. However, we would also want to check your neck and the nerves that run to those muscles as there could be an issue there causing the weakness.
Im in shock. It works. After I did this just one day, I went and curled afterwards without much pain. Like magic. Also put your arm straight out like throwing a punch. Then pull your 4 fingers back towards you. Youll feel the stretch in your elbow.
I don't feel pain while doing the exercises, but sore the day after. Some PT's I have watched say that's okay, and to continue exercises daily. My fears is that I am making it worse instead of better. What do you recommend?@@RehabScience
Are there any further exercises once the initial injury has recovered? I've thrown my elbow out repeatedly playing handball, so I assume some extra shock resistance would be help?🤾♂️

can these exercises build your forearms as well as fix your golfers elbow?

Will these exercises work for a dislocated elbow? I still have pain 2 years later, when I fully extend my arm, locking my elbow out. (I can get it fully straight and locked.)
How many days a week should one do these exercises?
Where you show the pain should be , mine is exactly the opposite side, do I have the same problem?

these three are all easy, I barely feel it stinging on inside of elbow (left)
it started when doing chin-ups, can still do those but it really stings, should I continue?
dumbbell curls are a bit easier but still stings
If the stinging persists for hours after the exercises, then you may need to find another option. If the symptom goes away immediately after performing those exercises, then they are probably fine to continue doing.

it goes go away immediately after the exercise!
that is a bit relieving, I will keep exercising and keep a close eye on it. hopefully it will stimulate healing and strengthening.
thank you Dr. Walters
What do you think of rice bucket training for this problem?
i went to a physiotherapist for 2.5 weeks and it did nothing. I think they were trying to target tennis elbow not golfers. the excerises they gave me to practice didnt do anything but were quite different than these. Hope this helps!
Sorry to hear that was the case. The exercises in this video are the best ones for golfer’s elbow, so I hope you find them to be helpful.
I worry that when it hurts my golfers elbow when I do this that I'm aggravating it. Am I making it worse? I really feel the pain when doing that last exercise.
I would only perform the exercises in this video that can be done with no more than moderate pain. Pushing past this level of pain can put the tendon into a reactive state and slow the healing process.
Why doesn’t icing help? I’ve tried cold compresses and it does nothing.
Ice doesn’t always help. We actually don’t recommend ice for this condition anymore as ice can delay the healing process.
yesterday I felt pain in that part, should I stop training for a couple of days or should I continue only with a reduced intensity?
I would give it one to two days of rest and then resume strengthening.
Is it normal to experience elbow crepitus with golfers elbow? I have typical golfers elbow pain which I can't really get rid of (got worse when I rested from the gym), but any pulling or pushing movement causes crepitus in that elbow. Like a clicking/slipping/crunching noise. Could this be from the tendon issues? Nobody can tell me anything. I had an xray and was told it looked pretty normal.
damn i have this too. after 2 calisthenics workouts
Thanks man! Been looking for this. Mine comes and goes in my left arm. So strange. Hopefully this will fix it.
You’re welcome! I hope these exercises help you.
Thank you for sharing
My pleasure!
Any exercises for ruptured bicep
I will be uploading a new bicep rehab video next week, which can help with recovery and healing after a ruptured bicep.
My arm is not straight I’m gonna do this exercise hopefully it will straighten up
A lot of times its caused by the shoulder and these dont address that so it won't help like in my case
Thank you sir✌️✌️
Welcome 👍
i fractured the medial epycondilo.
And… how long of an recovery? Anything you can add to share?
What about when your tendons get so tight you can’t straighten your arms
I think I have this issue as well ,My grip used to be fine, but I started to have soreness and pain in wrist and whole palm, which went upto inner forearm after doing forearm curls(where you roll the barbell up using fingers), just like you did at 3:37.
Since that day, my grip strength has never been the same and my arms get fatigued very quick even with 10kg dumbbells during dumbbell bicep curls and deadlifts.
Do you think these movements will be beneficial in my case too as my endurance is the thing that's gone for some reason and the exercise I got it from is demonstrated here
It’s hard to say for sure, without doing evaluation and knowing more information, but your symptoms definitely could be associated with golfers elbow. However, we would also want to check your neck and the nerves that run to those muscles as there could be an issue there causing the weakness.
I didn’t know that Jamie from Progressive is also a physical therapist
Super ❤️❤️
Thanks 🙏
I play darts and get tennis elbow and now golfers elbow😅
Im in shock. It works. After I did this just one day, I went and curled afterwards without much pain. Like magic. Also put your arm straight out like throwing a punch. Then pull your 4 fingers back towards you. Youll feel the stretch in your elbow.
Jamie?
Sweet tattoo. I have seen some bad ass tats but thats by far the baddest.
Haha, thanks!
just out of curiosity why is it the baddest? its not really that intricate, no offense intended
Doing the excersize I already feel pain…
It’s okay to feel mild discomfort during these exercises. If your pain is more than mild, then you need to reduce the weight you are using.
I don't feel pain while doing the exercises, but sore the day after. Some PT's I have watched say that's okay, and to continue exercises daily. My fears is that I am making it worse instead of better. What do you recommend?@@RehabScience
I had to stop all sport 3 years ago because of this sh1t. 42 now.
Are there any further exercises once the initial injury has recovered?
I've thrown my elbow out repeatedly playing handball, so I assume some extra shock resistance would be help?🤾♂️
Used these excercises for the last two months in addition to 2 others and my golfer’s elbow is almost completely gone. I had it for 15 months before watching this video. Thank you so much for these exercises, they were key to fixing it.
I’m so glad to hear that the exercises helped you!
Jamie?
