Elbow Pain = Skullcrusher related?

[drsketch]

i hurt my right elbow a little 2 weeks ago, almost like a shin splint type deal in elbow but I just worked through it and its g2g now..

I always do them w/easy curl bar

with any form of scullcrusher, the elbows really are not in a great position.
"strict" skullcrushers can actualy be far more stressfull on the joint too.
but personaly im a fan of BP lockouts or close grip bench press for tri's
good luck with the pain, hope it works out

Ya, I'm doing them very strict with keeping elbows in place and not turning it into a pullover type movement.

I'll stick it out w/ the dumbbell version.
I do the pushdowns and dips before i do crushers so they should be plenty warmed up but it sounds like alot of others had problems with bar'ed variation also.

Will have a doc check the elbow one day
