      Comp bench 365lb for 1,1,3

      Any experience with elbow joint pain while benching? I’ve been having this issue lately...I believe it started toward the end of my cycle while running winny/var.

      Once I get to about 70-80% max, toward the 5-8 rep mark my left (sometimes right) elbow feels like it’s just gonna fuckin give out right as I’m about to lock out. I’m not sure I’d call it tennis/golfers elbow either, it feels like deep joint but possibly the brachioradialis...about to order some mobility shit off amazon and I guess maybe start having to use elbow sleeves

      It really depends on what elbow pain you’re talking about man. Different pain will call for different adjustments. I typically get elbow pain directly on my elbow. And I find that doing a few light warmup sets with triceps rope push downs helps get the elbows greased and ready to go. If you’ve got brachioradialis pain your best bet is doing rotator cuff mobility work. From what I’ve seen the majority of biceps tendinitis/ brachioradialis pain is caused by tight rotator cuffs. Obviously heavy pressing is going to make that even worse without mobility work.

      That being said I have some slingshot elbow cuffs that I use when my elbow pain is unavoidable. And I plan to purchase some slingshot brand elbow sleeves in the next week or so bc I need new knee sleeves as well.

      Yup that’s what I was looking at, didn’t know if I should get those cuffs or sleeves. I have the slingshot I just don’t use it much...and I’m usually in a serious rush because I hit the gym for my lunch break so warming up usually refers to the sets before my working sets

      I know what you mean man. I haven’t ever used the elbow sleeves but have had great luck with the cuffs. Just make sure you get the right size. I had to return 2 of them

      They fit small or big? Measure tight around the elbow crease? I need to go home and get tapes before ordering

      They measure pretty accurate to size. I got the red ones I’m not sure what they were called. The black cuffs had way too much give that’s why I had to send them back.

      I have to keep reminding myself this deload is necessary. It’s so damn boring to go to the gym for 20 min and do weights that are just embarrassing lol. Gotta keep pushing through this deload so I’m ready to go for the fun stuff next week!

      Bench 225lb for 3x5
      Incline DB 60lb for 3x10
      Barbell row 185lb for 3x10
      Side raises

      Today was another bench day for me, feels fine till I get up in the 300 range then the elbows just fuckin hurt at lockout or after I rack the weight and release. Can’t really identify it but I’m guessing it’s tendons or actual joint...ordering them bitches now
