Reply With QuoteI don't have pain, but I have a funny 'click' in my left elbow when I close my arm like on the bottom of a nose-buster. I sometimes use a wider grip, but generally I just go slowly and right before I reach this wierd spot where my elbow seems to have a problem (what it is I have no idea).
I dont imagine your going too fast are you? Are you warming up the joints?

Elbow problem
I feel that one of my weak point is with my elbows. In exercises like tricep pushdown, bench flyes and presses, often time I feel taking much burden on my elbows, thus giving me elbow discomfort for a day or two after the workout day. For instance, just yesterday I did bench dips. I felt fine when doing it, but today I feel soreness with my triceps, but only on the lower part right above the elbow. Anybody has any advise on this? Thanks.

I don't think I'm going fast in my reps. How do you warm up your joints? I always do standard warmups before doing any workout session, but I though (and I feel) they affect the muscles, not joints.

I always make sure that my body is physically warm before I go in, so I usually wear like a sweat-jacket until I start to sweat (some people will wear it while sweating still, so long as my joints are warm I'm happy). I also make sure to do nice slow warmup sets.
Are you intaking enough water?
Hopefully someone else will have further ideas.Motivation Bench form Charles Poliquin When I let go of what I am, I become what I might be. Lao-Tzu

Hmm, wearing jacket to warm up the body is new to me, I've never done this and never seen anybody done this in my gym as well. I may try this later, hopefully ít doesn't make me look silly
I think I drink enough water; I keep drinking throughout my session, sometimes between sets, but mostly between exercises. But would water consumption help with my elbows?

Wearing atleast a sweater etc. is a good idea as it makes ur warmup a lot easier
