I've been looking for a solution on this for an hour and I think this video is exactly what I needed your content is underrated man thank you for the information

I've been working out for 29 years. Tendon injuries are no stranger to me. I recently injured my tibial tendon in my ankle. Thought I'd train through it and it is getting worse. I can continue to weightlift but I'm stopping all standing cardio and limiting walks. I'll definitely give this method ago. Great video.

1. Use a voodoo floss band for 1-2 minutes on the joint while performing light exercises. 2. This is phase 1, perform a single joint exercise for the joint, 1-2 sets, 20-25 reps, smooth and controlled, the weight needs to be enough to cause some pain, but never more than a 3/10. Pain may fade slowly over 4 weeks, if it's too slow add weight every 2 weeks and if it isn't fading choose a different exercise after 4 weeks. 3. 4 weeks after phase 1 is complete begin phase 2. Continue to perform phase 1 exercise during phase 2. Perform exercise twice per week. Perform a multi joint exercise that stresses the joint, 3 sets of 6-8 controlled negatives lasting 4-6 seconds each. Follow the same pain, weight and duration guidelines as in Phase 1. Total duration should be about 1 month for phase 1 and 2 months for phase 1 and 2 together. Then ease back into regular work carefully.

When things just make sense, they just do. Great quality information!

Damn near five years ago, a couple strangers on the street attacked me and one of them had a knife. I sacrificed my thumb extensor tendon to save my trachea. Eating, typing or really doing anything with my dominant hand has been torture. This is the exact protocol (albeit with just a couple hair elastics) I've been using to get some functionality back, and I came upon it more by pure frustration and desperation than by scientific research. This makes me feel incredibly vindicated and kinda almost hopeful.

The best breakdown on how to rehap a tendon. I have been dealing with archilles tendinitis for over a year. There is alot of information out there but thus video has really helped me work out how long I should be working through the phases of rehab. Thanks bud.😊

This is very helpful, thank you so much! I have been noticing myself that it is more helpful to do lighter work than nothing at all, and that the weight capacity can slowly go up. I am glad to find someone who can explain what I was noticing and from their own experience. Now I am confident to continue!

I used to have wrist tendonitis and I can attest that pumping blood into the area is the best way to help your body heal. I would make fist over and over again while driving to work. At home I would submerge my hand into a bucket of water and make fist several hundred times. The pump is what finally cured the tendonitis. Grip work was too much and always resulted in pain after a while. Now I lift heavier than before but with no pain.

Man I watched this video 2 years ago and healed bicep and tricep tendon weakness. I say weakness because I wasn’t injured but for some reason any time I would attempt isolations with perfect form, my tendons would hurt and felt like they’d snap. That was going on for 8 freaking years… I was a 242 lbs bencher who couldn’t curl the 20s cause of fear of snapping my tendons. After I implemented your protocol I now have strong tendons and can rep out 45s with zero pain. Same for triceps… Massive improvements… now on my non training days I still do the protocol for tendon health “maintenance”. I can not thank you enough. This video dramatically changed the trajectory of my training within the first days of implementation. I’m my mind now, using my bicep and tricep tendons every single day of the week with some form of curl (either heavy working sets, or super easy pumping sets) is the key to keep the tendons pain free and strong. If I go for a week with no bicep work (I get sick or something) I might start to get weird sensations in there… it’s really bizarre lol

I'm on the final stretch with dealing with a triceps tendon issue. I agree with all the points you've made; for my particular case I used banded pushdowns religiously after hearing what some of the old westside guys did. On top of that, I incorporated blood flow restriction training into the mix after hearing a "golden tidbit" from Eric Bugenhagen. Man, it really does help. I think that by just engorging the whole area with blood it helps get some more nutrients to the tendon itself. I also realised that I was going way too heavy on my isolation movements. From now on, I'm keeping heavy work to the compounds and lighter weight for the isos. From what I've seen in terms of arm growth, BFR bands are a legit way to get more from less weight. The pain from the pump is unreal though!

Phase one is similar to something I did when I had elbow pain. After listening to Rippetoe talking about the SRA phenomenon and its effects on healing, and how "tendons don't heal themselves, you have to stress them to", I started thinking of of ways to do it. What I came up with is high reps at low loads through full ROM for blood flow and remodeling. I figured it'd have to be an exercise that causes little pain and I came up with hammer curls and skull crushers. And it actually worked. Great video man! Very good advice.

Hey man, just as a heads up...bicipital tendinopathy is not the same as lateral or medial epicondylitis. The former is stemming from the tendon which is associated with the upper arm. The latter conditions are more likely to be related to the forearm, so things like wrist flexion/extension/rotation are likely going to be more helpful. Epicondylitis will present on the side of the elbow (inside or outside) whereas bicitpital tendinopathy will be oriented more on the front.

How’s the shoulder

Since folks are sharing their own stories, I figured I'd drop some of my anecdotal horseshit. I'm not a professional, this stuff just worked for me. I had some shoulder tendenopathy last year and slowly worked it back into health with front squats (the rack position has a similar effect to compression, which is hard to do at the shoulder joint--or at least I thought that was happening) and pushing around my vacuum cleaner a couple times a week. Both of those solutions were completely by accident, but as the shoulder started to heal, I could gauge my recovery by how much pain I felt when pushing the vacuum away from my body (recovered quickly) and pushing it across the plane of my body (much more slowly). It took over two months to completely get back to normal, but I've had zero pain since then. I also beat up my elbows pretty badly a few years back and mostly got them back into shape with rest and compression. If you have medial elbow pain, there are three good diagnostics that I've found for determining when you're ready to start training with light weight again. First is supinating and pronating your lower arm, second is putting your hand on your face and pressing against your forehead with your fingers, third is squeezing the heel of your opposite foot. Those are in order, by the way. In my experience, being able to squeeze my heel with zero pain took longer than the other two.

Really really good vid on tendonitis. Most information you'll find on the internet on this topic is pure shit, finally someone who's gone through it and knows what he's talking about. Godspeed

This is information that people would pay for. thank you so much

Already put one comment down. This info dovetails nicely with Knees Over Toes and other physio recommendations. However, it is more comprehensive and I appreciate the detailed roadmap. Thank you!

Hey my man, glad I found your channel. Just browsed through your older videos and please do some more stuff on weight lifting. There are a lot of us out there that don't want to take it seriously enough to get an actual weight lifting coach. Most of the channels I've seen about olympic lifting is strictly about olympic lifting and a bit too nerdy. I feel like you come from a good place to teach and talk about technique and how you don't need that super perfect chinese olympic level form and how to incorporate it in a more standard strength/hypertrophy routine.

Nice alliteration: beautiful bundles

This is a good video, and keep notes in a journal. Then you know better where your baseline tolerance is. In case you mess something up and the pain increase, you can step back a bit, like a week or two. It is easier with notes.

this information is golden

I hope you find the content helpful man!

A Homedics percussion massager also helps getting the blood flow to the tendon. Been lifting for over 35 years, so I definitely have had some experience in suffering from and recovering from tendonitis.

Thanks for the tips 👍🏾

I needed this brother thanks a lot

Great stuff, my friend 💪🤓

Thanks a lot, man!

Messed up my rotator cuff a while back and after watching this started up on phase I and so far it’s helping tremendously. Gonna start phase II soon and if I remember I’ll check back in with progress.

Thanks. Ok cool so I was on the right track. Light weight and tight elbow brace thing. Definitely getting those arm bands. I've taken a couple weeks off due to the bicep distal issue and now I have a plan. It was meant to be.

and here u didnt even talk about the controversial stuff like ice and other stuffs and have a good strat.. thou there might be alternations and also rope flow has helped me a ton.. aka the upper body jump rope.. and worked my way up in explosiveness and all that... till i was not fealing all the hurt from slow to fast over time i think your strat can work but u have only but one strat and not all the alternates and thus might lack out on some great alternate faster strat.. but u only know what u know and did an incredible job at explaining stuff.. . u where amongst the first videos that helped me tackle my tendent issues and i am so greatfull for it.. and its still one of the best.. thou i love diverse viewpoints and mark bell had kidawsky on his podcast.. his book changed my viewpoint so much.. but .... thanks for all your help and all... good luck to u in the future... thanks for making me understand critical things about my body and keep on rocking

Great stuff! Many thanks!

Great video!

These are very good for ankles, knees and wrists..thankfully I haven't needed to do this in at least a couple of years... Because it worked and the joints healed. These are also covered in the book Becoming a Supple Leopard by Kelly Starrett. I use old mountain bike inner tubes because that's what I had laying around 👍

Thanks for this video going to do everything here to fix my crappy elbows! Currently its reverse curls with bands that I'm going to use for phase 1

Great content 👍🏻

Great vid. In the beginning of this injury its so easy to think it will just blow over and not even take rest. Then u keep dumbing down bits and bits without doing anything effective about it untill the fear kicks in this will never go over. Im stuck with this elbow pain forever and i cant perform anymore.. This is the biggest pitfall of this injury. U have to commit to healing this.

good timing. stopped working out for a while cuz of assignments and exams, got back into working out and now my elbows feels some pressure from doing tricep extensions. hope this method works lol

My tendinitis sounds very similar to what you had. It’s been on and off for on the left arm for a couple of years but recently become a problem. The main issues I’m having are it completely prevents me from doing hammer curls with any significant weight, after any curls it’s painful, can be difficult to get the weight up for DB overhead press on the one side and I have starting to feel it in the bench press. Going to give this a shot using light hammer curls and using wrist straps at the gym where appropriate in the mean time as I’ve heard that can also help. Thanks man

My left elbow hurts, just in time enkiri the savior.

I can confirm that whenever I got an inflammation and pain and just waited for it to disappear, not much happened. In the first time of course the pain gets less, but once you start using that body part it starts to hurt again. When I get inflammation now I only wait for a couple of days up to 2 weeks until the first heavy pain is gone and then I slightly start with exercises again with low weight and low pain level. This helps curing the inflammation so much better than doing nothing.

Fantastic work. Thank you sir. LHB tendinopathy always responds well to deadlifts in my experience

This is TRUE. I injured my wrist during explosive push-ups. The doctors told me to rest and I did but it was so much irritating even after the healing that I went to different doctors thinking it was still injured. Turns out docs did not know anything better than to advice me to rest. One of them even told me to get a surgery. This irritation lingered around for 2 years and i did nothing but to rest my left hand because every doctor said so. The irritation got worse and my whole left arm was visually half the size of my right arm because I was avoiding most of work on docs' advice. It was clear to me by then that these docs are just money whores who lacked adequate knowledge. FINALLY I found a doctor with enough integrity who told me the truth. He literally didn't charge me anything but visiting fee and put me in a mindset that things aren't that bad and you don't need surgery. I took matters in my hands from then on and being soo pissed off dealing with this irritation, I started pushing my left hand to do work and subjected them to load. And here I am with almost perfect left wrist. Glad I took matters in my own hand instead of listening to these money hungry whores of a doctor. Now I know that irritation was nothing but sub-optimal healing of my ligament from resting. Resting is just half the equation, putting in work after that initial healing is the second part.
