Farenheit 451 happened without any help from the government in this society of fools: 6 Dr. Seuss books won'''t be published for racist images
I hear you! TLDR is that I just wanted to try the pin fire with pullups for my tennis elbow as chin-ups don't hurt at all (whereas pull-ups do). Since the goal in inflammation, I thought doing the exercise that set it off would be better than one that wasn't setting it off.
I don’t think you can rule out bursitis. I may be wrong, but I would imagine that the friction of a tight it band over the bursa sac would irritate the fuck out of it. Your GP should be able to give you a shot to calm it down - then you can get back to fixing your squat faster.
I’m late to the party, but I used Rip’s method for both tennis and golfers elbow, and it worked.
Worked for me! Any injury is a pesky unpleasant experience, but tendonitis can go to hell.
Did the chin-ups hurt / set-off the injury area when you did them with tennis elbow, as they don't hurt me at all, which is why I thought of pull-ups. Or you did the chin-ups reps / set without it setting off the area, and it helped clear it up despite that? How many weeks did it take you for the tennis elbow and did you keep lifting through it as well (deads, squats, shoulder presses, etc.)? Thank you!
It hurt like hell. I saw improvement within the first few workouts, and progressed steadily. I continued to lift with the exception of giving up power cleans. I had only recently added them (I’m an older fuck) and believed them to have been the cause, although I may have been wrong. I don’t know if the chins not hurting means it they aren’t addressing the issue. I’d defer to my, Rip.
Finished my third week and 6th session. Got up to 13 sets of 7 and 12 sets of 6. Not feeling too much of a difference yet so will give it one more week but potentially shifting to chins. I tested some chins today and they don't even mildly hurt where the pull-ups set off the area.
