      Get some ART done on those elbows. Theres a chapter on ART in the book The 4 Hour Body. Also Prolotherapy is another great thing for elbow pain

      After a month of being inflamed, heat is what really helped mine. I dropped any kind of skull crusher and only did push downs with bands and did not lock out all the way.

      this is what I did. Well since I dont hold the bar in the normal benching place I always hold a close grip when I bench. So instead of doing tri's I would just do the close grip on my bench days and gave them a rest and iot worked. Lay off the tri's or just go reallt light and then they will be fine in a month or so. Yes it will take time. I had the worst pain in my elbow and it finaly got better and now I;'m able to go heavier,,but I dont go super heavy anymore.Rest,Ice

      ART for the shoulders,tri's and bi's wiil help those elbows tremendously. the elbow is just like the knee in that it is the brake,takes a pounding if the tri's are tender or have trigger points.

      Is the pain coming from the area of the funny bone? If so this is an inflammation in the elbow commonly reffered to as tennis elbow. Try using 400mg (two pills) to 800mg (prescription strength) of ibuprofen three times a day. After three or four days if you notice relief, there is your problem. If not, seek medical attention.

      i did that and it turned out to be brutitis....and it didnt matter what i did there was no working around it. as i dropped excersizes that agrevated it, new ones would start to aggrevate it!!! pretty soon i could do ANY pushing movements...i stopped working out for 60days and gave iut a break (kept doing back work and bi's) now its becoming just as bad...been 90 days or so...i'm not even hitting the weights like i should!! i miss days all the time becuz of my schedule....i'm going to the doctor wed...i want a cortizone shot. that or i'm on the hunt for pain pills again!!!

      Definitely avoiding all injurious exercises until you heal is imperative. There are many things you can do during that time to heal up a lot quicker.
      Healing takes place in a bell curve timeline of symptoms with the top of the curve being the worst point. Thats the top of the roller coaster. Heading back down is regression toward the mean(thats the flat part.) Some people go back to training the injured bodypart before the bell curve goes flat. This is a very common mistake, even among smart people. Be patient and let the power that made the body heal the body

      BTW, go to youtube and search for elbow stretching exercises. You should stretch throughout the day. Every hour if possible. Find the stretche(s) that specifically targets the tendon attachment where you have pain. I have suffered from the same thing, severe burning in my elbows. You will heal up

      ACTUALLY UNTIL YOU KNOW THE PROBLEM- YOU SHOULD NOT STRETCH- I PERSONALLY HAVE SEEN AND HAD MORE INJURIES THAT RESULTED AND GOT WORSE FROM STRETCHING- DEFINATELY BE CAREFUL UNTIL YOU GET PROPER DIAGNOSIS. aS A MARTIAL ART TEACHER AS WELL I CONSIDER OVER STRETCHING , IMPROPER STRETCHING AND STRETCHING AS A WARM UP TO BE THE LEADING CAUSE OF INJURY

      I quote myself- DO NOT stretch if you have an acute injury, controlled , slow or otherwise. Thats my 40 years of experience training and teaching in Martial ARts, weightlifting and being a streghnth and conditionin coach- Its great to read and reserach- but dont think every physician has an answer because he is an MD- there are many schools of though. I think FUZO had the best advice here::

      "So instead of doing tri's just do the close grip on bench days and gave them a rest . Lay off the tri's or just go reallt light and then they will be fine in a month or so. Yes it will take time. I had the worst pain in my elbow and it finaly got better and now I;'m able to go heavier,,but I dont go super heavy anymore.Rest,Ice " WHEN YOU ARE HEALED PRACTICE STRETCHING ONLY AFTER YOU ARE WARMED UP. STRETCHING IS WAY WAY OVER EMPHASIZED - BUT IT HAS ITS PLACE

      i HAVE RIPPED EVERY MAJOR LIGAMENT IN MY BODY BUT DURING MY SPINE SURGERY REHAB - IT REALLY TAUGHT ME HOW MANY OF THE MEDICAL VIEWS ARE OUTDATED AND JUST COMPLETEY FALSE. YOU NEED TO GET BLOOD IN THE AREA WITH HIGHER REPS AND STRETCH- AFTER YOU CAN DO AN EXERCISE THAT DOES NOT HURT- SO EXPERIMENT AND WORK EITHER AROUND IT OR INDIRECTLY
