    Hey guys,

    Suffered from mild tendonitis in the left elbow from excessive BW training. Did the whole rest, relaxing, ice/heat. Now there is no pain.

    Are there any specific tendon strengthening exercises to prevent future tendon pain?

    I was talking to Hanley who recommended high rep presses and curls. Any other advice guys? :D

    Thanks

    I was told this morning I have golfers elbow - tendonitis on the inside of the left elbow.

    While I find curls do help after a session, the only real cure according to the doctor I spoke to this morning is rest in minor cases, steroid injections in medium cases & surgery in very bad cases.

    I told him that taking a break from training isn't something that's going to happen any time soon.
    He gave me anti-inflammatories (Difene).

    Apart from that, have you tried tiger balm or winter green or something like that?

    No I agree rest is best but I am looking for preventative measures for future tendonitis avoidance. :D

    They don't actually hurt now, I just don't want them to either!
