I got tennis elbow from I think doing hammer curls, and this sorted it out. It's literally just a twistable piece of rubber, you hold it in front of you vertically in both hands, the hand of the injured arm at the bottom with palm facing toward you, the other hand at the top with palm facing away. Then you stretch your arms out in front gripping the bar and you will find that it twists as you do that and you end up with a lot of torsional tension that your hands have to resist. Then you just twist the hand of the injured arm forward to slowly release the tension. You do this about 15 times in a row, every day for a couple of weeks. Pain should be gone by then.
Yeah, no way I can do hammer curls or any curls where my wrists are supinated. That causes it to flare up. The only curls I can do now are concentration curls. I should note I originally got my golfer's elbow from doing burpees, not lifting. I think the amount of volume I was doing caused it. I grabbed that Flexbar so I'll give that a shot, Thanks!
