I never did the elevation part, just iced it. For a while I wore some sleeves that have ceramic magnets in the elbow area, just around the house, I think they helped too. The idea was about magnetics and the iron in your blood increasing blood flow. Since tendons get almost none. Anyway, I think they helped too. I think the website is HessScript or something like that. It’s a chiropractic type supply site, they were really cheap.
Glad to hear they’re feeling better!
On a related note, Master and Justice are the only LP’s I ever wanna hear. Death Magnetic sounded like they were trying so hard to be bad ass again…
And all the live stuff sounds embarrassing. Sorry…IMHO…LOL!

Hahaha, that’s some true say there bro!

Metallica had a heckuva run, but I think it’s time they resorted to chips, beer and the couch potato routine, and just let other bands step up to the podium. Can’t imagine what over 3 decades of jamming and playing live does to your hearing!!

What else do you enjoy listening to while hauling ass in the gym? [/quote]
Actually, I don’t listen to any thing when I lift, just whatever shitty tunes are playing in the gym. I find it too distracting to listen to tunes, as I am a musician so I end up analyzing more than listening, especially when I have earbuds in.
I’ll tell ya what 3 decades of playing does to your ears: Tinnitus. I started using special ear plugs after about 12 years of playing and then went to custom molded attenuators, but once you have tinnitus you’re screwed.
I am an old metal guy though, Pantera, Slayer, Sabbath, King Diamond, Anthrax, some new shit though, like Trivium, Firewind, Dream Evil. Ya know, real metal. IMO…

Wow…I am amazed at the fact… that you’re a true metal head and you don’t listen to that shit while training with weights?! To each their own I suppose! Makes sense somewhat being a musician and all.

The bands you mentioned are some of the best metal I’ve heard in the last 20 years or so, and listen to them pretty much the only time when I’m sprinting or powerlifting. Don’t listen to it otherwise, as it gets me all fired up and pissed off for no reason!

Generally, I don’t mind peace in the gym, the clinging and clanging of barbells, dumbells and machines… is a very soothing and welcoming sound when you set foot in the gym. But they got this girly, testosterone-obliterating commercial crap playing on the sound system…only way I know is to tune it out with heavy ass metal tunes on my mp3 player.

Rock on!

Yes,Elbow tendinitis is very common.I aggravated my inner left elbow doing scott curls.I really didnt think to much of it,as it wasen’t all that score.A few day’s later while doing skull crushers at a increaseing weight i felt a severe pain and tightness.In my experience,i try to build by increaseing the weight,and eventually the muscle grows,but the tendons suffer.The only remedie isrest,and to rest is to atrophy and get weak.Maybe i should not be so aggressive at my age,thank’s for your post john

It’s funny, that shit does get “all fired up and pissed off for no reason” but I really like that feeling. In a bizarre way it’s very soothing and calming to me. I feel happy and like I want to punch people in the face at the same time :slight_smile:

Hahaharrhh …YEAH bro! Nailed it!

I never ever do skull crushers. Murders my elbow. And quite frankly I think weighted dips, seated dips, a push downs are enough to force serious growth on the triceps. Skull crushers just put too much strain the elbows at an awkward position.

VOODOO BANDS!!! Haha seriously though they got rid of my tricep tendonitis fast and hasn’t come back since. Probably the best money I’ve ever spent as it worked even after physical therapy didn’t.
