So I am having some pretty bad tendonitis in my elbow...

[mekannik]

and was trying the Advil overdosing. Took a week off over New Year's. Still hurting - between the snatches, close grip bench, and heavy chins.


So I remembered Dr. Dennis Leary's advice - skip the Advil and started tonite with CoC work with some barbell wrist curls. Will have to see how it feels this Sunday after speed bench tomorrow.

Generic Ibuprophen is cheaper than advil. Glucosimine Chondroitin. Try to get your hands on some Cellegen, a topical that works like a dream!

You could always try higher repped work with single-joint movements to try and flush the area with lactate and speed healing.

Other than that, take some time away from lifting to let yourself heal.

do you do curls?

do you do curls?

Not for over 5 weeks. Right now the most direct bicep work is 10x3 of weighted close grip chins.

That could be doing it a bit...
