    I'm 43 and had tennis elbow for the first time this year. I experimented with different strings and tensions. Lower tension didn't help as it made the racquet vibrate more. I normally use poly strings but discovered multifiliment and I love how soft they feel at contact. Currently using solinco x natural in mains and rpm blast in crosses (55 to 60 lbs). The heavier racquets (11+oz) are too heavy for me to swing correctly, while the lite (under 10oz) don't hold up well against fast serves. The mid weight (standard) of 10.2 to 10.6 feel the best to me.

    Thanks I think this is just what I need. I've been getting pain for a while and its worse after matches where I've had to hit balls late. I think being more relaxed with better technique will help me a lot.

    I did that, by dropping string tension substantially and made sure I didn't hit late, always making contact with the ball in front. If I were late, I would hit a volley even from the baseline, as long as the contact point is in front of the body. I didn't care about missing such shots. Combined that with certain exercise for the elbow, and I fixed it completely without having to stop playing.
    And I keep the same set up of tension now that my tennis elbow is gone. But the key is never attempt to hit a fast ball when it had passed your body. You have to attempt a half volley or volley, but you have to hit in front of you body. If your reaction is not fast enough, just let it go. It's not worth the injury.

    all this are very logical, but what happen when u get tennis elbow from stiff strings or stiff racquet , i dont understand how vibration can affect muscle and wat will be minmimum starting racquet weight for amateur player ?

      I do think shock has an impact, but I think technique is even more of a factor

    • @gravitytennis

      Hey Adrian, the two handed backhand can easily be the tensest stroke for numerous reasons, and I'd guess it could be the chronic squeezing. Do you have a light or heavy racket?

      Based on my own experience: Check: too tight strings (specially poly), foream muscle tension and biceps muscle tension (sometimes golfer elbow pain is due to a biceps tendonitis).

    You would love Dr. Nicholas Romanov with the pose method. He goes at sport much the same way. Y’all would make an food combo it looks like.

    He's dead on about light rackets, but lighter rackets that flex well are fairly helpful. This, combined with improving your form will make you a much better and more comfortable player.
    Also, icing the elbow or shoulder after matches is a proven preventative. Vigorous play causes strain and stress in joints, muscles, and tendons, whether you feel it or not. If you want to play into old age, you better learn to find a way to work that in. I bring cold-packs in a cooler to matches and ice my elbow on the way home.

    Drink every time he says "ergonomic". But seriously, does this apply to the underneath of the elbow or "golfers" elbow?
