Chin-ups for golfers elbow - the right way?.
Hi Rip,
I have recently developed golfer's elbow on my left arm. It's particularly painful during the squat, and interferes with my bench press. I videoed myself when squatting and see that my elbows are way too high, and so I'm going to make adjustments per the guidance on your YouTube videos on the topic.
I've read your chin-up routine to fix elbow tendinitis and I'm ready to try it. I've listened to your podcast with Mike Matthews on it as well as the recent Q&A from your podcast, and one thing I picked up is that it's imperative that it's done your way. I want to make sure I fully understand how to do it properly.
The questions I have after listening and reading are:
How much rest in between chin-up days?
Should I wait until the tendinitis is gone before attempting to squat again (with the improved grip)? Or should I work on the squat in tandem with the chin-ups?
Is other upper body work that isn't painful ok, or should I do nothing except chin-ups until the tendinitis is resolved?
Thank you.
