How To Fix Elbow Pain and Stiffness #shorts

Gary Berger — Thu, 17 Aug 2023 16:26:52 +0000

If you’re dealing with some stiffness in your elbows from training, then try this out!

Grab a towel and place it at the hinge of your elbow.

Use your other hand to provide gentle overpressure at the forearm.

This created “joint gapping” which helped create some space and improved mobility in the elbow joint.

Perform 5 repetitions for 15 second holds.

Fix Stiff Elbows Using A Towel (1 Minute Mobility)

Gary Berger — Fri, 21 Jan 2022 17:30:03 +0000

I wanted to share the idea of “joint gapping.” It’s a simple way to create more space in a stiff or tight joint to help with movement.

Essentially, you can use a towel or another object to act as a fulcrum to create a gapping or spacing in the joint.

When a joint is stiff, specifically a “hinge joint” (think of a hinge on the door-opening and closing) such as the elbow and knee, you can see how placing a towel between the joint were the joint bends can create a fulcrum and a gapping to make space.

So if you’re dealing with an elbow injury or a stiff elbow joint, check out the Grappling RX – Elbow Rehab Course to get a step-by-step proven approach to mobility, strength, and return to sport.

And if you’re dealing with some stiff knees, and having problems sitting back on the heels, then Grappling RX – How To Sit Back On The Heels will be the perfect course to improve your kneeling position and improving your base for BJJ (which will make you more stable and more difficult to sweep).

Fix Tight Forearms With A Lacrosse Ball

Gary Berger — Wed, 06 Oct 2021 16:30:05 +0000

With excessive gripping in grappling, you can develop tenderness and even tension/tightness in the forearm muscles. This technique of using a Lacrosse ball or roller to address trigger points (tightened/restricted muscles) can be helpful with recovery and reducing soreness.

Its vital to think of this concept in conjunction with an adequate warm-up, stretching, opposing muscle strengthening, and activity modification.

I prefer to do this after training, but can also be utilized before a training session as well.

If you’ve spent much time under heavy people in side control, you’ve likely put your elbows through hell framing at some point. This leads to some tendon strain and possible other injuries and chronic conditions. In this video, I talk with Dr Carlos about chronic elbow pain I’ve developed over the years, why it has happened, and then we kick it to his channel (link at the end) to see what can be done to help this. Hope you like this series!

Elbow and Arm Mobility For Grapplers (Grappling RX – Elbow Rehab Course Sample)

Gary Berger — Fri, 23 Jul 2021 16:30:03 +0000

Here is a clip from session 1 of Grappling RX – Elbow Rehab.

I take through a sample of the first session starting out with shoulder, elbow, and wrist CARs which are incredibly useful for regaining and improving range of motion, followed by a couple of basic stretches.

This course was created by me, a Doctor of Physical Therapy and Jiu-Jitsu Black Belt for individuals who have sustained an elbow injury and are trying to get back to grappling and regular activity. This course is for recovery from mild-moderate elbow injuries and elbow pain that can commonly occur with grappling.
