Forearm Tendons

I have that exact same problem, just not that bad. I found that doing farmer’s walks before the pullups really help warm up the tendons, so now I don’t get that pain anymore.

Actually, I was think along similar lines…Thanks for the suggestion, grip work maybe the road to faster recovery. I have been incorporating a little more, but not as a warm up. I think I will try that.

The brachioradialis does not have a tendinous origin really. It attaches directly onto the periosteum of the distal end of the humerus.

The only muscle that has a tendinous origin in that region is the extensor carpi radialis brevis.

Commonly involved in lateral epicondylitis (‘golfers elbow’).

The tendinous origin is prone to calcific changes.

OK yes, after looking that back up you are correct. :stuck_out_tongue:

Dang I was corrected by Bushy :S I was hoping it’d be somebody more intelligent sarcasm

Thanks man, that’s what I like about this site, you can dish out info you thought to have been correct and be corrected, you can learn through teaching, you can help and be helped. lol
