Tricep pushdowns - Elbow pain prevention

[motown1002]

Snake has a good point. Sometimes I can simply widen my grip on the straight bar push down and relieve the pain, ropes and underhand are both good as well. Try not to aggravate it and make it worse, you can train around it, but you keep hitting the spot that hurts it wont heal.

Thanks, I’m going to play around with volume training for extensions and higher intensity for curls.

I do higher intensity leg extensions but I know that bothers some people over the long haul.

Have to keep the mind active with minutia!
