Just watched and it definitely feels like the most useful video I've seen on elbow pain. I can feel the heat in the affected areas right now after a few sets. Excellent
Coach E, you are the man! My elbows were in so much pain after Jiu Jitsu they were shaking and I was eating Aleve. Now my elbows, and stomach, are back to normal. I am so grateful you took the time to teach this for free. Much respect
Dear Eric, I have to thank you so much for making this information available to all of us. I initially watched the video and didn't think it would help me much. I have had golfers elbow for about a year from climbing outdoors. I tried resting, stretching , eccentric exercises, etc. - nothing seemed to help much. After doing exercise 1 and 3, I immediately noticed a huge difference. I have been doing these exercises twice daily for the last two weeks. I have managed to decrease my pain considerably. Progress has kinda slowed down now, what would you recommend in terms of programing? Increase reps? sets? I am increasing weight on the eccentrics very slowly, but other than that I am not sure how to progress from here. P.S. I have eliminated years of wrist pain within the two weeks I have followed your advice. The pain is f***ing gone!!! You are awesome.
@@deima5085 Hello, I don't have a problem as long as I do light weight lifting exercises and fitness without forcing my body. You need to relieve the tension of the body and gain flexibility but never ever push yourself too far. That makes everything even worse. However, you have to understand where you went wrong technically. I suggest you to look at Taubman approach.
this was great, thanks so much. My arm's been killing me from my forehands and serves since I went to a stiffer racket (which is better for my one handed backhand). I'll keep doing these; thanks for sharing.
Thanks so much for this. I'll try the exercises you suggest. I have already tried eccentrics, with little success, but I haven't been gripped the weight tightly as you mention, so maybe that's where I'm going wrong. Great to have some additional things to try.
Great, clear explanation of this condition. I will be trying the 3 basic exercises as my condition has turned to chronic from acute. I will report back as to my success. Thanks!
@@nikolastojkovic6641 The exercises have definitely helped, especially the one using the 5lb weight. May pain level has gone down about 50%, but I will admit, I have not been as consistent with my exercises as I believe I need to be. Thanks for motivating me to make sure I do them all, every day.
I have golfers elbow and I only golf ones a week so I shall try these exercise starting today. The sharp pain is around 4 to 5, I am using a strap everytime I golf, thanks :)
backround: I'm 71 engineer and in good condition, played all sports. i have golfers elbow for about a year now after a club fitting without proper warmup. i walk and carry clubs 2-3 times per week. 4-5 HC in summer, 7-8 in winter. hit driver around 250 yds. went thru 6 weeks of PT but still had pain. still doing PT exercises i learned. started with an full elbow compression brace and that helped but didn't get better. started using a velcro compression "band" below the elbow and that may help more. it is more specific to the affected area. today saw your exercises and explanation and sounded logical and reasonable. so after a year i probably have deterioration in area. I live with a little pain and it doesn't seem to get worse. i take 7.5 mg of meloxicam every day i play. no other medicines. Question: can i do these exercises and keep playing and get well without having to lay off golf? fix doesn't have to be quick but i don't want to quit but i do want it to be better. thank you for your video - excellent.
Essentially you need to avoid any activities or movements that cause pain or that you cannot do pain-free. It sucks to have to give up something that you love even for a short period but you will be better for it after you resolve your issue. - Team PM
Thanks for sharing. It's been 5 weeks since I sustained a trapezius and arm strain from work. I seem to have golfer's elbow and tennis elbow as well. PT has helped some but has not explained the "why." I appreciate that. Thanks!
Sounds promising, will give it a try. I am having this exact pain, but it is coming from tennis, when I am hitting my forehand, and serving. Thanks for the advise!
As a truck driver of 10 years. My right arm is worn out. Thanks for this. I noticed before this video that when i worked a little bit it would help. By the stretching of routines. But after hurt at end of day be hurting. Those 3 tips seem to help on first day. Just a little bit.but i will start using these everyday.
Praise the Lord! Felt relief immediately...especially with extended elbow fist extension exercise! Thank you so much. I'm 72 y/o, I don't play golf and have no idea how it started and I've been enduring the pain for a couple months now! Thank you, thank, thank you!😊
Thank you, so glad I found your video. I've been dealing with golfers elbow for about a year. I did some physio but stopped going. Thought I'd look for help on youtube. Thank you so much. Should I start out doing these excercises once a day and build up to three times a day? Again, thank you, hoping to finally get better. 🙌👍
You are welcome! Stick to once every other day for now and see how it goes. Doing more is not necessarily better in this case. Your body needs time to rest and to adapt to the exercises. - Coach Joshua, Team PM
@@PrecisionMovementCoach Ok, thank you. I did the exercises once yesterday and noticed some improvement already. Looking forward to getting past this injury. Thank you again.
Wow!!! I think I'm at the chronic stage and just did one set of these and can already tell a difference. Yes, I'm going to be sore but it feels like a good sore! I'll check out the link because I definitely have shoulder issues too! Thanks!
Just discovered your channel and immediately subscribed after watching this video. Succinct, to the point, and easy to understand. I particularly enjoyed how you explained the purpose of each exercise (e.g. the extended elbow flexed fist exercise "teaches" us a new motor pattern for wrist flexion without significant contribution from the elbow flexor muscles attaching at the medial epicondyle). Going to try these exercises starting today!
@@ed4253 if you don't mind, what did they have you do? I took off two weeks from doing pull ups and any straight arm strength movements and the pain is worse than ever. I've been doing the stretches, the soft tissue work, the voodoo flossing, working my shoulder mobility but nothing's changed. I dont get insurance til the 28th so I'm pretty frustrated. Just looking for some type of relief
I have had this problem on my left elbow for year. These exercises seems to hit the spot. I hope they are enough to fix the problem, because every time I start going to gym, I have to stop doing bicep curls after few sessions. This problem became chronic when I was doing too much french press at the gym.
V OX I’m experiencing the exact same thing as you with tendinitis/golfers elbow. I had to quit working out because any kind of biceps and back exercises, plus just lifting plates and dumbbells was painful. I’m curious what your results were? Did these exercises work and heal your elbow pain?
Couple questions: 1) When doing the forearm dumbbell curls (technique #2), why focus only on the eccentric? Nobody seems to explain this, and some videos suggest doing the concentric as well. 2) Why keep a tight grip on the dumbbell? Some recommend letting the dumbbell fall into your extended fingers at the end of the eccentric. Thanks in advance!
Eccentric forces cause the desired physical changes to the tissue. However, concentric loading is also useful. This article can help you to understand why: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4527202/ Activating more muscles is typically more effective than fewer. When you make a fist you fire up your nervous system in a way that "irradiates" your entire arm. This enhances the remolding process. Hope that helps! Let us know if you have any more questions :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM
interesting, didn't look like much, but the 3 techniques gave me immediate pain relief. shall do it daily and see if it fixes this real crappy golfer's elbow issue.
Thanks, have great day. Can I do aerobics and other exercises that I don't need weights? Love using them, when I do my bicep curls I use hammer curls, doing it this way it doesn't hurt. Thanks again.
i had it for three weeks now. only one set of that first exercise with wrist and finger extension and the pain was instantly a lot less and it felt like it hit right in the spot where it hurts the most.
I'm a provider and needed relief fast - previous golfer and injury flared up IDK why, but it was/is painful. Coach E has it going on...he's spot on! Remarkable. TY!
You know your stuff. Great video thank you. If the extended elbow flexed fist is painful during contractions is this normal? I have this condition for over a month now
Hi and thanks! Pain is not normal. Modify the exercise to do it painfree or stop doing it. Modifications include moving slower and smaller. However, it sounds like you need something more comprehensive and progressive. The Elbow Pain Solution program was designed for people like you: www.precisionmovement.coach/elbow-pain-solution/ Let us know if you have any more questions :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM
You are welcome! It's hard to say how long it will take you to recover as everyone responds to the material differently. You should notice improvements after 1-2 weeks of consistent practice. - Team PM
@@PrecisionMovementCoach Yes, I have and it helped. I'm relieved because I had a similar problem years ago, but tennis elbow tendon. I ended up getting cortisone injections. The injections hurt ten times worse than the injury. I prefer a physical therapy solution, if possible. Thank you.
Sir, could you please clear one of my doubts? Sir,i have medial epicondylitis on both the elbows, but certainly not chronic. Do you suggest keeping ice pack twice daily n practicing all those exercises you have shown in the video for Golfers Elbow?
Hi Eric, thanks for the great content! I've had golfer Elbow for about 1.5 years due to intense climbing training, tried everything and nothing did really work out. I did cortisone injections 4 months ago, I was pain free after that for 3 months but as soon as I got back into climbing the pain got back in a month stronger than before. Now the whole tendon hurts when i'm twisting it, plus I also have a strong pain on the external part of the same arm (ulnar radius side) since a year, that I never managed to heal. I will start doing these exercises straight away, any further recommendations for my specific case and for the elbow too? Thank you so much for your great content and help!
This material is definitely a good start and it's important that you stop any provocative movements until your pain has subsided significantly. Also, consider starting this program: www.precisionmovement.coach/upper-limb-live - Coach Joshua, Team PM
hey, how did you go with this? I have a similar thing, pain in my elbow when generally using my arms and pain where my ulnar nerve is when lifting heavy objects
@@genzuo doing much better finally after 2 years! I've integrated a climbing routine 2 times per week with those exercises before and after the training. My wrist still hurts but at least the elbow is doing way better. To me what actually worked was to increase volume in climbing and decrease intensity, so doing more easy route but at a lower grade for a month, then slowly increase the intensity. I don't know how can you apply this in your specific field, but this is what worked for me. Good luck my dude!
@@alexgiordano7143 that's great to hear man, thanks for responding. I also do some climbing (bouldering) which usually hurts me the most out of anything I do, so I'll have to give that a go. thanks again
Thank you for your time. I'm a tennis player who took a month long break and restarted playing few weeks ago. What felt like a nerve pain similar to golfer's elbow is becoming persistent even after a week of rice therapy and steroids. Most of it pain gets triggered when I try to create the supination motion on my right arm with a straight elbow ( doesn't occur with a bent elbow). I have been religiously doing the nerve gliding exercises but I'm not able to find any relief. Any suggestions would be great.
Yikes! That pain sucks. Check out the first two videos here for ideas: www.youtube.com/@PrecisionMovementCoach/search?query=elbow The Elbow Pain Solution program can also help: www.precisionmovement.coach/elbow-pain-solution-yt - Coach Joshua, Team PM
@@PrecisionMovementCoach thank you Doc. I followed your exercises this morning and will continue with the recommended videos as well. Like and subscribe guaranteed for the great content you make.
Hello, thanks for the video! I’ve had this for 3 weeks & used my doctor’s advice & the pain is no less!! I’m supposed to go on holiday in 3 weeks... do you think it’s too soon to be carrying luggage?
I can't say for sure but you could test it out by attempting to lift progressively heavier objects over a period of time and see how you respond. Start at 10 lbs and go from there.
Eric, would it make sense that I sleep on my right arm and that's the same swing position? I couldn't believe how similar that felt when I was doing the golf swing test w you - that's how I sleep and have dealt w this pain for 7 years!!!! Been treated for lateral epicondylitis and bicep tendinitis, and wrist tendinitis (both arms hurt all the time). I think you had my answer the whole time and I've not seen this video til today. I'll be on the call tomorrow :)
I've had chronic golfers elbow for probably 4-5 years. I can certainly work around it and it's not debilitating. I can easily tolerate 3kg/6.5lb eccentric curls at the moment, should I keep increasing the weight and this should continue to reduce my pain levels?
Thanks for the video! Definitely have chronic golfer's elbow (I'm a powerlifter). Is it detrimental to recovery even if you don't feel the pain with certain exercises? I don't feel it at all while flat benching. It's most prominent with my accessory work like pull ups, dumbell curls, tricep pulldowns, etc (I've stopped doing these this past week except benching). Basically anything with pulling. Thanks in advance!
I'm in the same situation as you. A lifter. Pull ups and pull downs with a supinated grip really cause me pain in my right elbow. So do bicep curls. Totally sucks.
Cut out the provocative exercises and focus on the material in the video for about 2 weeks. Keep training exercises that don't bother you. Slowly re-integrate your accessory work or find alternative exercises that don't aggravate your issue.
Thank you for this video! I was wondering if it is normal to feel light (but annoying) pain after the eccentric exercise during daily actions? This pain stays for a day or two, then fades away. It is no constant pain. I never feel any pain during the exercise, only after. When I dont do any exercises for a while, the pain is almost gone but never really heals and is there again after doing any exercise. Thanks again.
@@PrecisionMovementCoach Thanks for responding. It is a light pinching pain that I feel about 10-15 times a day during random daily things like leaning on something with a straight arm or trying to open a door. I feel the pain in the medial epicondylitis, never anywhere else. It almosts stops hurting after a day or two by doing no exercises, but never seems to really heal. Maybe this is because my work, study and life in general is a lot of sitting behind a computer and it is the arm that uses the mouse. It feels a bit irritated, so my first reaction is to quit all exercises and anything heavy (like holding bags) for the next couple of days and just 'wait it out'. Stuck in a loop of not knowing what to do, had to quit playing guitar aswell because of it. No radiating, one spot and it stays in that spot.
I would definitely start taking a closer look at your daily activities (i.e. mousing) and figure out ways to take regular breaks from any provocative movements. For example, many people keep their mousing hand on the mouse even when they aren't actively clicking or mousing. An easy way to take a break from this would be to remove the hand from the device completely and let the arm hang loose. Does that make sense? I'm sure that there are other movements/tasks that you can analyze in a similar way.
Look into buying a vertical mouse. Or you might have nerve entrapment. Do nerve flosing excercises which are highly effective at realising the nerve from being stuck on a scar tissue which in turn cause pain
Hi Eric, so much for your great videos! Really appreciate what you're doing! Is it okay, if I feel a bit more pain on the next day in my elbow? Not too much, but a bit. The pain started spreading in my triceps after a while. Started in the elbow and after a while in the triceps and triggering the ulnar nerve. Not caused by your exercise, I had it already before I started exercising. Thank you so much, stay safe and positive greetings from Germany :)
You might be feeling a little bit of discomfort from the techniques. Just make sure that you aren't in pain during the exercise and that your level of discomfort after is now higher than a 1-2/10.
I have tennis elbow and golfers elbow on the same arm. I started of 1 kg with 6 repetitions of three sets each day for tennis elbow last yeaar. Now I can make 40 repetetions of three sets of 1 kg. When I increase weight to 1.5 kg I cant see any healing improvement on my tennis elbow and it get worse. I know 1 kg is the best weight for tennis elbow. I started exercises for golfers elbow 3 months ago of 1 kg with 5 repetetions. Now I can do 22 repetetions of three sets each day. now its much more better than when I started exercises. when I started exercises last year I couldnt open a door or take a glass of water. Now I can do them easily with no pain. I want to ask you how many repetetions do I have to reach for full recovery with 1 kg for tennis elbow and golfers elbow.?
It's great to read about your progress. There is no magic number of repetitions that will bring relief. It is likely that you need to change the exercises that you are doing. Try these out: ua-cam.com/video/FIwV-Fv047Q/v-deo.html - Coach Joshua, Team PM
My pain started from doing silly hanging exercises when I was younger in hopes of getting taller. The problem was that my bodyweight was causing too much strain on my elbows which caused what I now know to be golfers elbow. When I went to the GP they just recommended me elbow arthritis exercises but the pain has been going and coming back for over 3 years now even after doing those recommended exercises. I must admit I was not consistant with those exercises and didn't allow myself to recover fully now looking back. Now in quarantine, I am trying to fully recover with heat pads, golfers elbow exercises and rest. Sometimes I feel pain when at my desk using my ergonomic mouse. I may start using the mouse on my lap to avoid aggravating my right elbow where possible. That first exercise is difficult but genius I can feel it strengthening my elbow. I hope this finally stops the chronic pain. I initially tried it on my bed but it needs to be done on a flat surface which doesn't allow your wrist to sink. I don't have a weight but I will try using a resistance band or drink bottle. I will try to update you guys with my progress. For whoever else may be experiencing the similar issues.
I have chronic medial and lateral epicondylitis in both arms for 3 years. I'm 31 and in good overall physical condition. My PT says if I get any discomfort during eccentrics or soreness the next day that I'm not ready and should only do isometric and rhythmic stabilization. This makes no sense to me since eccentrics create micro tares and like you said in the video, some pain is normal for chronic tendonosis. What are your thoughts? I just need to get better as fast as possible so I can play with my son again. Thank you for your time.
Try out these exercises following the guidance of your therapist. It is definitely important to let pain guide you. Keep us posted on your progress :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM
Hey mate, I’m getting pain on the outside as you have suggested but is it also normal for it to be tender where the bicep meets the forearm? Where the joint is? I seem to be getting both
Should this routine be continued after the pain has gone away? For example, if I went to back to lifting weights, after the pain went away, would I continue doing this on top of my regular gym routine? Thanks!
Filmmaker here. Been suffering golfers elbow for 3 weeks now. Been lifting heavy cameras on a gimbal a lot lately and have been miserable due to pain. How many times can I do this per day coach?
Hey, Thanks for trusting us to guide your efforts. Do them once daily and 2 - 3 times per week. You will notice changes after 4 - 6 weeks.

What do u think I should do i play baseball and I’m 13 and my right arm can even go straight like it’s pain but like my arm won’t let me I’m gonna do the second one but the first and third are physically impossible do u think I should see a doctor? My arm can only go 160 degrees I would say but I hope u can respond
I sustained this injury 3 months ago, got much better in 2 months then big set back from curling 3 lbs concentric, since then I would improve then few setbacks due to volume of exercises, now I'm going v conservative volume. My question: what's the veto exercise not to do while healing? Are concentric curls that dangerous? What are your thoughts on volume?
@@PrecisionMovementCoach thank you very much for the reply, currently just doing 1-2 lbs eccentric wrist curls high reps + the exercises you suggested. Any general advice on how to progress with volume/weight?
I have tender pain in my wrist extention, I can't do these movements, what can I do for my golfers elbow? And to what weight should I keep leveling up?

Help!? I have bilateral golfer’s and tennis elbow for over 2 1/2 years now. Couldn’t lift a toothbrush in the beginning, still can’t type on a computer, can’t chop vegetables, fold laundry, clean my house, without a significant pain.

Great video! I’m a professional Chef and have been experience a good amount of pain with my dominant cutting hand (right elbow). Would you suggest along with these exercises a hand strengthener device?
Those devices are probably unnecessary for you. It seems that you are overworking your hand enough as it is. Are you able to learn how to use your left arm for certain tasks? For example, those that don't need fine control.
@@emtpfo1 great point. Everytime i do pull ups or cable pullups i get tendonitis. My trick now is not to extend my arms out fully. Thats one thing ill correct once im back in the gym
Coach E, I don't want to stop my pullups progress? How can I workout around this injury and still maintain or increase strength in the pullups while I recover. How many pullups can you do Coach?
If you are in pain and pull-ups cause pain then you will need to take a break from that exercise until your symptoms resolve. It's worth trying out hanging to see if it causes pain. Also, check this out: ua-cam.com/video/FIwV-Fv047Q/v-deo.html - Coach Joshua, Team PM
The cause is typically a combination of muscles imbalances and less-than-optimal neurological control over your kinetic chain. Highly repetitive movements can provoke the issue.

@@basbeallplayer25 ibuprofen hinders the tendon collagen fibres to be properly formed during a tendinosis condition like chronic golfers elbow. Many doctors are not up to date on this, but you need to be. If you have an acute condition, and you know there is inflammation, its allright to take some ibuprofen for a short period. Ice and natural anti-inflammatories from foods are prefered. For a chronic golfers/tennis elbow (you've had it for more than a few weeks), there is no longer inflammation happening. There is pain from degeneration and damage, but not inflammation. Doctors love telling you to take NSAIDs for this, even if its a chronic condition. This is because many doctors don't know the difference between a tendonitis (inflammation) and a tendinosis (degeneration). The difference is crucial when deciding treatment options, otherwise you'll be stuck with this for years. Erics treatment protocol in this video is very effective. I used it to treat mine and I'm very thankful for it. Its normal with pain or burning, it will stop after a week or two, just ice it or use a lighter weight and gradually increase. Stick with it. Good luck :)
What are some of those natural anti-inflammatories we can find in food that you mention? For the time being I am just icing my elbow. I've had golfers elbow from playing tennis for 4 months now. A very disheartening injury. I reduced the time I play but never stopped playing
I got this from doing to many pushups. I had the mentality of no pain no gain so I kept at it. I injured it really bad and now I'm scared it will never heal. Idk if I should go to the doctor or just let it heal. It's been on and off for 6 months. I'm 17
Hi! I've been doing these exercises for a week and while doing them I have no pain at all, but the day after I have a slight pain. Is it normal and do I have to continue? Thanks
Yup...keep it up. There is going to be some discomfort associated with the exercises. As long as you can do them pain-free you are good to go. Feel free to back off on the amount and intensity and see if that changes anything :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM

Thanks for sharing. It's been 5 weeks since I sustained a trapezius and arm strain from work. I seem to have golfer's elbow and tennis elbow as well. PT has helped some but has not explained the "why." I appreciate that. Thanks!
You are welcome!
How are things now?

Sounds promising, will give it a try. I am having this exact pain, but it is coming from tennis, when I am hitting my forehand, and serving. Thanks for the advise!

As a truck driver of 10 years. My right arm is worn out. Thanks for this. I noticed before this video that when i worked a little bit it would help. By the stretching of routines. But after hurt at end of day be hurting. Those 3 tips seem to help on first day. Just a little bit.but i will start using these everyday.

Praise the Lord! Felt relief immediately...especially with extended elbow fist extension exercise! Thank you so much. I'm 72 y/o, I don't play golf and have no idea how it started and I've been enduring the pain for a couple months now! Thank you, thank, thank you!😊
You are so welcome!
Amazing video. everything is clear how to treat golfer's elbow.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you, so glad I found your video. I've been dealing with golfers elbow for about a year. I did some physio but stopped going. Thought I'd look for help on youtube. Thank you so much. Should I start out doing these excercises once a day and build up to three times a day? Again, thank you, hoping to finally get better. 🙌👍
You are welcome!
Stick to once every other day for now and see how it goes. Doing more is not necessarily better in this case. Your body needs time to rest and to adapt to the exercises.
- Coach Joshua, Team PM
@@PrecisionMovementCoach Ok, thank you. I did the exercises once yesterday and noticed some improvement already. Looking forward to getting past this injury. Thank you again.
Wow!!! I think I'm at the chronic stage and just did one set of these and can already tell a difference. Yes, I'm going to be sore but it feels like a good sore! I'll check out the link because I definitely have shoulder issues too! Thanks!
I'm glad that it helped!
@@PrecisionMovementCoach Four days, three times a day and I am so close to be pain free! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. 🙏🏻
Just discovered your channel and immediately subscribed after watching this video. Succinct, to the point, and easy to understand. I particularly enjoyed how you explained the purpose of each exercise (e.g. the extended elbow flexed fist exercise "teaches" us a new motor pattern for wrist flexion without significant contribution from the elbow flexor muscles attaching at the medial epicondyle). Going to try these exercises starting today!
Thanks for following along :)
10 years of pullups and I have severe golfers elbow in my left arm. I've had to take 2 months off lifting. I will try these
Keep me posted on your progress.

Update?
@@pauldavies5541 went to P/T and it's healed for the most part.
@@ed4253 if you don't mind, what did they have you do? I took off two weeks from doing pull ups and any straight arm strength movements and the pain is worse than ever. I've been doing the stretches, the soft tissue work, the voodoo flossing, working my shoulder mobility but nothing's changed.
I dont get insurance til the 28th so I'm pretty frustrated. Just looking for some type of relief
I have had this problem on my left elbow for year. These exercises seems to hit the spot. I hope they are enough to fix the problem, because every time I start going to gym, I have to stop doing bicep curls after few sessions. This problem became chronic when I was doing too much french press at the gym.
V OX I’m experiencing the exact same thing as you with tendinitis/golfers elbow. I had to quit working out because any kind of biceps and back exercises, plus just lifting plates and dumbbells was painful. I’m curious what your results were? Did these exercises work and heal your elbow pain?
How did you guys go with the pain? I wana know as I'm in the same boat
Awesome video. Thanks so much.
You are welcome!
Awesome video. Well spoken and in simple terms. Very informative.
Glad that you think so :)
Thank you it's helped already just by doing what you said as I was watching....great job!
Golfers elbow would more likely happen in lead elbow (left elbow)
Great to hear!
Thanks for trying it out!
Couple questions:
1) When doing the forearm dumbbell curls (technique #2), why focus only on the eccentric? Nobody seems to explain this, and some videos suggest doing the concentric as well.
2) Why keep a tight grip on the dumbbell? Some recommend letting the dumbbell fall into your extended fingers at the end of the eccentric.
Thanks in advance!
Eccentric forces cause the desired physical changes to the tissue. However, concentric loading is also useful.
This article can help you to understand why: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4527202/
Activating more muscles is typically more effective than fewer. When you make a fist you fire up your nervous system in a way that "irradiates" your entire arm. This enhances the remolding process.
Hope that helps!
Let us know if you have any more questions :)

You can do anything that doesn’t cause pain 👍🏻 - Team PM
@@PrecisionMovementCoach thanks again. One last question, these exercises are better done before or after working out?
Separate these exercise and your other activities by a few hours. - Team PM
i had it for three weeks now. only one set of that first exercise with wrist and finger extension and the pain was instantly a lot less and it felt like it hit right in the spot where it hurts the most.
That's awesome to read.
I'm a provider and needed relief fast - previous golfer and injury flared up IDK why, but it was/is painful. Coach E has it going on...he's spot on! Remarkable. TY!
Thanks for watching :)

You are so welcome! I'm glad that it was helpful and good luck with your recovery.
Looks good to me, can't wait to try these exercises. Got this from lots of freestyle swimming (crawl).
Hope you like it!
did these fix the issue?
Great tips! Thanks!
You are welcome.
first thing I noticed from doing those movements is how unflexible I am. Very helpful video, so thanks!
You are welcome!
You know your stuff. Great video thank you. If the extended elbow flexed fist is painful during contractions is this normal? I have this condition for over a month now

Pain is not normal. Modify the exercise to do it painfree or stop doing it. Modifications include moving slower and smaller.

@@PrecisionMovementCoach Yes, I have and it helped. I'm relieved because I had a similar problem years ago, but tennis elbow tendon. I ended up getting cortisone injections. The injections hurt ten times worse than the injury. I prefer a physical therapy solution, if possible. Thank you.
Thanks Mr Eric for this wonderful information🙏
My pleasure!
Sir, could you please clear one of my doubts? Sir,i have medial epicondylitis on both the elbows, but certainly not chronic. Do you suggest keeping ice pack twice daily n practicing all those exercises you have shown in the video for Golfers Elbow?
That is a great course of action.
Thanks a lot Sir, i am finding there is a gradual relief in pain🙏
@@PrecisionMovementCoach hey sir i have a question..can you do this all 3 of them when doing daily
Hi Eric, thanks for the great content! I've had golfer Elbow for about 1.5 years due to intense climbing training, tried everything and nothing did really work out. I did cortisone injections 4 months ago, I was pain free after that for 3 months but as soon as I got back into climbing the pain got back in a month stronger than before. Now the whole tendon hurts when i'm twisting it, plus I also have a strong pain on the external part of the same arm (ulnar radius side) since a year, that I never managed to heal. I will start doing these exercises straight away, any further recommendations for my specific case and for the elbow too? Thank you so much for your great content and help!
This material is definitely a good start and it's important that you stop any provocative movements until your pain has subsided significantly. Also, consider starting this program: www.precisionmovement.coach/upper-limb-live - Coach Joshua, Team PM
@@PrecisionMovementCoach Thank you so much for your prompt answer Eric. I will definitely look into it!
hey, how did you go with this? I have a similar thing, pain in my elbow when generally using my arms and pain where my ulnar nerve is when lifting heavy objects
@@genzuo doing much better finally after 2 years! I've integrated a climbing routine 2 times per week with those exercises before and after the training. My wrist still hurts but at least the elbow is doing way better. To me what actually worked was to increase volume in climbing and decrease intensity, so doing more easy route but at a lower grade for a month, then slowly increase the intensity. I don't know how can you apply this in your specific field, but this is what worked for me. Good luck my dude!
@@alexgiordano7143 that's great to hear man, thanks for responding. I also do some climbing (bouldering) which usually hurts me the most out of anything I do, so I'll have to give that a go. thanks again
Thank you for your time. I'm a tennis player who took a month long break and restarted playing few weeks ago. What felt like a nerve pain similar to golfer's elbow is becoming persistent even after a week of rice therapy and steroids. Most of it pain gets triggered when I try to create the supination motion on my right arm with a straight elbow ( doesn't occur with a bent elbow). I have been religiously doing the nerve gliding exercises but I'm not able to find any relief. Any suggestions would be great.

I've had chronic golfers elbow for probably 4-5 years. I can certainly work around it and it's not debilitating. I can easily tolerate 3kg/6.5lb eccentric curls at the moment, should I keep increasing the weight and this should continue to reduce my pain levels?
These exercises are ok but these are better:

Thanks for the video! Definitely have chronic golfer's elbow (I'm a powerlifter). Is it detrimental to recovery even if you don't feel the pain with certain exercises? I don't feel it at all while flat benching. It's most prominent with my accessory work like pull ups, dumbell curls, tricep pulldowns, etc (I've stopped doing these this past week except benching). Basically anything with pulling.
Thanks in advance!
I'm in the same situation as you. A lifter. Pull ups and pull downs with a supinated grip really cause me pain in my right elbow. So do bicep curls. Totally sucks.
Cut out the provocative exercises and focus on the material in the video for about 2 weeks. Keep training exercises that don't bother you. Slowly re-integrate your accessory work or find alternative exercises that don't aggravate your issue.
Precision Movement by Eric Wong what if bench press is aggravating my elbow ? Do I have to forget bench press forever ?? I’d hate that
Thank you for this video! I was wondering if it is normal to feel light (but annoying) pain after the eccentric exercise during daily actions? This pain stays for a day or two, then fades away. It is no constant pain. I never feel any pain during the exercise, only after. When I dont do any exercises for a while, the pain is almost gone but never really heals and is there again after doing any exercise. Thanks again.
It could be normal. Can you describe the pain in more detail...quality, quantity, radiating, specific location, movement, etc.
@@PrecisionMovementCoach Thanks for responding. It is a light pinching pain that I feel about 10-15 times a day during random daily things like leaning on something with a straight arm or trying to open a door. I feel the pain in the medial epicondylitis, never anywhere else. It almosts stops hurting after a day or two by doing no exercises, but never seems to really heal. Maybe this is because my work, study and life in general is a lot of sitting behind a computer and it is the arm that uses the mouse. It feels a bit irritated, so my first reaction is to quit all exercises and anything heavy (like holding bags) for the next couple of days and just 'wait it out'. Stuck in a loop of not knowing what to do, had to quit playing guitar aswell because of it.
No radiating, one spot and it stays in that spot.
I would definitely start taking a closer look at your daily activities (i.e. mousing) and figure out ways to take regular breaks from any provocative movements. For example, many people keep their mousing hand on the mouse even when they aren't actively clicking or mousing. An easy way to take a break from this would be to remove the hand from the device completely and let the arm hang loose. Does that make sense? I'm sure that there are other movements/tasks that you can analyze in a similar way.
Look into buying a vertical mouse. Or you might have nerve entrapment. Do nerve flosing excercises which are highly effective at realising the nerve from being stuck on a scar tissue which in turn cause pain
@@PrecisionMovementCoach Makes sense, thanks a lot.
Hi Eric,
so much for your great videos! Really appreciate what you're doing!
Is it okay, if I feel a bit more pain on the next day in my elbow? Not too much, but a bit.
The pain started spreading in my triceps after a while. Started in the elbow and after a while in the triceps and triggering the ulnar nerve. Not caused by your exercise, I had it already before I started exercising.
Thank you so much, stay safe and positive greetings from Germany :)
You might be feeling a little bit of discomfort from the techniques. Just make sure that you aren't in pain during the exercise and that your level of discomfort after is now higher than a 1-2/10.
Precision Movement by Eric Wong thank you!! 🙏
I have tennis elbow and golfers elbow on the same arm. I started of 1 kg with 6 repetitions of three sets each day for tennis elbow last yeaar. Now I can make 40 repetetions of three sets of 1 kg. When I increase weight to 1.5 kg I cant see any healing improvement on my tennis elbow and it get worse. I know 1 kg is the best weight for tennis elbow. I started exercises for golfers elbow 3 months ago of 1 kg with 5 repetetions. Now I can do 22 repetetions of three sets each day. now its much more better than when I started exercises. when I started exercises last year I couldnt open a door or take a glass of water. Now I can do them easily with no pain. I want to ask you how many repetetions do I have to reach for full recovery with 1 kg for tennis elbow and golfers elbow.?
It's great to read about your progress.
There is no magic number of repetitions that will bring relief. It is likely that you need to change the exercises that you are doing.

My pain started from doing silly hanging exercises when I was younger in hopes of getting taller. The problem was that my bodyweight was causing too much strain on my elbows which caused what I now know to be golfers elbow. When I went to the GP they just recommended me elbow arthritis exercises but the pain has been going and coming back for over 3 years now even after doing those recommended exercises. I must admit I was not consistant with those exercises and didn't allow myself to recover fully now looking back.
Now in quarantine, I am trying to fully recover with heat pads, golfers elbow exercises and rest. Sometimes I feel pain when at my desk using my ergonomic mouse. I may start using the mouse on my lap to avoid aggravating my right elbow where possible.
That first exercise is difficult but genius I can feel it strengthening my elbow. I hope this finally stops the chronic pain. I initially tried it on my bed but it needs to be done on a flat surface which doesn't allow your wrist to sink. I don't have a weight but I will try using a resistance band or drink bottle. I will try to update you guys with my progress. For whoever else may be experiencing the similar issues.
Thanks for sharing your history...keep me posted on your progress.

I have chronic medial and lateral epicondylitis in both arms for 3 years. I'm 31 and in good overall physical condition. My PT says if I get any discomfort during eccentrics or soreness the next day that I'm not ready and should only do isometric and rhythmic stabilization. This makes no sense to me since eccentrics create micro tares and like you said in the video, some pain is normal for chronic tendonosis. What are your thoughts? I just need to get better as fast as possible so I can play with my son again. Thank you for your time.

Hey mate, I’m getting pain on the outside as you have suggested but is it also normal for it to be tender where the bicep meets the forearm? Where the joint is? I seem to be getting both
Yup...that makes sense. Take a look at an anatomy atlas and make note of where the muscle and connective tissue attaches to the bone.
Should this routine be continued after the pain has gone away? For example, if I went to back to lifting weights, after the pain went away, would I continue doing this on top of my regular gym routine? Thanks!
It's worth doing at least once a week once you are pain-free as preventative maintenance and for assessment purposes.
Great video !
I also heard that some suggest doing this with higher repetitions every other day and then like 30+ reps
What do u think about that?
I would stick to more conservative volume.

I sustained this injury 3 months ago, got much better in 2 months then big set back from curling 3 lbs concentric, since then I would improve then few setbacks due to volume of exercises, now I'm going v conservative volume.

Concentric curls appear to be provocative for you and I would take a break from them until to clear up the root cause of your issue.

It's likely inflammation. Do you ice your elbow often?
@@PrecisionMovementCoach about 3 times a week take 1 600mg ibuprofen
@@basbeallplayer25 ibuprofen hinders the tendon collagen fibres to be properly formed during a tendinosis condition like chronic golfers elbow. Many doctors are not up to date on this, but you need to be. If you have an acute condition, and you know there is inflammation, its allright to take some ibuprofen for a short period. Ice and natural anti-inflammatories from foods are prefered. For a chronic golfers/tennis elbow (you've had it for more than a few weeks), there is no longer inflammation happening. There is pain from degeneration and damage, but not inflammation. Doctors love telling you to take NSAIDs for this, even if its a chronic condition. This is because many doctors don't know the difference between a tendonitis (inflammation) and a tendinosis (degeneration). The difference is crucial when deciding treatment options, otherwise you'll be stuck with this for years.
Erics treatment protocol in this video is very effective. I used it to treat mine and I'm very thankful for it. Its normal with pain or burning, it will stop after a week or two, just ice it or use a lighter weight and gradually increase. Stick with it. Good luck :)
@@Joegengstah great information! Thanks

There is going to be some discomfort associated with the exercises. As long as you can do them pain-free you are good to go.
Feel free to back off on the amount and intensity and see if that changes anything :)
