THERABAND FlexBar Resistance Bar – Pain Relief for Tennis Elbow and Golfer’s Elbow – 12 Inch Durable Flex Bar for Strength and Grip – Portable and Easy to Use

So I have had tennis elbow for a year. Basically rested it for a year. Became active again after the pain died away and it flared back up again. All that 'self-limiting' condition rubbish turns out to be wrong, at least in my case. So, rather than rest it, waiting for the tendon to heal, what I needed to do was to strengthen my forearm muscles that I somehow damaged doing gardening and playing my fiddle too much.... So this is a great tool back to stronger forearms. But not alone and definitely not too soon. For me I have used gentle NHS exercises (freely available) for about two weeks. I have got myself a compression sleeve too and a warm pad. I also have one of the pressure straps too which pushes directly down on the muscle a little below the knobbly bit in the elbow where the pain is. My pre-work routine now is do my NHS exercises, use this bar doing the twist and release exercise until my forearms tire (but don't hurt) then put nurofen gel on my elbow and massage it in. Then I put the compression sleeve on for my working day. I have been doing Aikido with the pressure strap on and this feels good. I am gently returning to the fiddle for about 5 mins a day, again with the pressure strap. So far so good. No relapse. The elbow does seem to pain me occasionally but it is short-lived. I generally apply nurofen gel, massage it in, put the sleeve on and rest a day or so. My arms are feeling stronger and with that the pain seems to be receding. This is my experience but if you are plagued like me with this absolute 'pain in the proverbials' of an injury it's worth a go. So, in a nutshell...this is good but don't use it too much, too soon. In combination with other things though, it works a treat

30/03/2020. I have been suffering with tennis elbow now for 4 years. It has now got to a point where it is impossible for me to do barbell curls or pull-ups. It is a constant draining pain to always live with and when I am sleeping at night I will wake up from the dull aching pain. Fed up of this situation I tried various methods to cure this problem but without success. I have used BPC-157 injections which cost me nearly £200 but it did nothing. I used elbow sleeves, used eltro pad shocks, massages, medication, stretching and laying off the exercise for months. The only thing so far that seems to have helped me is the deep massages I do myself on my tendons. I am now testing this Thera-Band out and I will come back for an update. My first impression though is that the blue one is too hard for me and I wish I bought the medium one. 02/04/20 - This is an update to let people suffering from tennis elbow and golfers elbow that this product has reduced my pain by 80 percent which for me is absolutely incredible. I have only been using if for a few days and at first it seemed too difficult to turn but now my muscles have adapted. I am going to continue with it and see how my elbows feel after a couple of weeks of use. There is no doubt that this has helped my pain more than anything and really I am quite in shock. Let me be clear though I am still in pain but not like how it was. I still cannot do pull-up or barbell curl but at least now I can rotate my arm without extreme pain like before. 17/04/2020 I have been using it everyday maybe 4 or 5 times throughout the day and doing around 50 repetitions. My conclusion is that the Thera-Band has definitely relieved my pain more than anything else but it did not rid the pain completely. I still cannot do a pull-up nor can I do a bicep curl anymore. I may have a more serious injury that I will check out with an X-Ray however the pain was greatly reduced and for that I think anyone suffering you invest in this just to relieve the pain and it may even rid the pain completely for you if you do not have a major injury like me Update: 20th April 2021. My elbow is 90 percent better. I believe the Theraband had a very big part to play in the strengthening of the tendons in my forearm. I still use the Theraband throughout the week. The pain I had for many years was unbearable at times. Oh and I can now do pull ups and bicep curls with only a slight pain. Before it was impossible to do due to the pain.

After struggling with pain on the inside of my elbow, I came across this aid after some research. I’ve been pleased, the bar is of a good quality and seems unlikely to break or wear quickly which was my concern. There are a number of exercise you can do depending on what issue you have and there are lots of online videos. It comes well packed with an instruction guide and once you understand the various usages it’s a really useful tool. I was initially put off by the price, but having now received I can say the quality and effectiveness more than provides value for money.

If you have tennis elbow this thing is absolutely elite but he prepared for sex toy jokes in the gym…

Strong grip and underarm strength. High quality product

I developed really sore elbow joints last summer and have spent a good year trying to manage the pain. Ice, massage, rest, YouTube remedy videos, the lot, and nothing worked. I have also tried many of the suggestions from people commenting on the theraband.. just use a towel.. just do this exercise in the gym etc.. trust me they do not work the same. It got pretty debilitating to be honest. One year on I decided to purchase the thera-band. I went for the blue as I regularly deadlift, bench press and squat in the gym so have a pretty respectable level of strength. I wont lie, it took me ages to master the movements and the first few attempts were painful. However, a few weeks on and my elbows are steadily improving. I will also say that this is HARD WORK that requires commitment and dedication. I have pain in both elbows and three sets of 15, with rest, on each arm, takes me a good twenty minutes. I do this once a day now but began with three times. I just wish I'd had this piece of kit when the pain first emerged as I'm convinced it would of never of got as bad as it did. I look forward to the relief it brings everyday and my overall arm strength is rapidly improving and I feel I wont have to even use it anymore soon. Buy as soon as you can and dedicate time for your rehabilitation. Excellent piece of kit.

I bought this due to findings in a peer-reviewed journal, so there is probably some truth that it helps tennis/swimmers/golfers elbow etc. But what I will say is that when I used it my lateral epicondylitis (tennis or swimmers elbow) hurt like hell, and in my mind that can't be good. I went back to the most effective treatment recommended by my physiotherapist which is to bend your wrist as far as it can go and extend your arm to stretch the tendon attachment, and count to 30, a few times a day. That did help and didn't hurt much. But epicondylitis has a habit of recurring once you have had it once, so this is probably ideal as part of your regular exercise regime once you have recovered to strengthen your tendon and make sure that it doesn't happen again. To be altogether fair, i bought the medium one. If you have tennis elbow, even if you think you are a big strong man, get the soft one because it's going to hurt otherwise. But then they recommend that you move through the whole set, and they are awfully expensive for a bunch of lumps of rubber..... Or rest your elbow from sport and exercise for a bit, and try my physiotherapists stretch instead, it's free.

This is awesome! Had been having elbow pain for about 6 weeks before my osteopath diagnosed tennis elbow. I couldn’t lift a kettle anymore, big problem to a tea drinker..! When testing my individual finger strength by pressing finger to thumb, ring finger and middle finger were really painful. It improved a bit through stretching for two weeks and acupuncture. But then came across the thereband bar, ordered the green one. I have to admit, at first the green might have been a bit strong as the first day using it was pretty sore. However, I didn’t do as many reps as recommended in a youtube video (recommended were 3 sets of 15 reps per day), but only 3 sets of 5 reps to start with. I also noticed some small adjustments in the elbow muscles like little release "clicks". Within three days, I noticed my strength increasing and less pain. I have been using it for 6 days and am now pain-free! Will persist for another 5 weeks or so. What a difference it has made! Finger strength test now without pain, really chuffed about this and can only recommend!! I’ve seen a few comments where people claimed this was a marketing trick and that there were no studies to substantiate the company’s claim this worked. I didn’t look up the studies, but am pretty amazed by the result first hand. Well worth it from my experience.

Very good product. I am using it for my clients and they have really benifited in just 3 weeks. Noticible change in strength and grip. Ppl looking to do first pulluo must master dis equipment it vl really help u.

Ideal para las epicondilitis y sobre todo para su prevención

Había comprado anteriormente otra marca mas económica que era mas rígida, esta se siente mucho mejor, es mas flexible y tiene un tacto genial, la recomiendo.

Mi alleno a corpo libero e dopo un paio d’anni ho iniziato a soffrire di epitrocleite al gomito destro; ho fatto di tutto, ma c’è voluto più di un anno per recuperare e neanche al 100% Poi è toccato al gomito sinistro e per non farmi mancare niente, anche una bella epicondilite. Vi lascio immaginare lo sconforto; non ho voluto comunque mollare, ho ridotto i carichi d’allenamento e ho scoperto questa Flexbar. Ho studiato un po’ di esercizi (YouTube è pieno di video) e li ho iniziati a fare 2 volte al giorno per 10 minuti, tutti i giorni Dopo due giorni ho sentito immediatamente i benefici, dopo 10 giorni un recupero incredibile, davvero non me lo aspettavo, memore dell’esperienza avuta con l’altro gomito. Dopo un paio di settimane ho recuperato al 75%, ancora una settimana e torno ad aumentare i carichi d’allenamento, senza aver mai essere stato completamente fermo. Se fatto come si deve e con costanza la Flexbar funziona e anche bene. La consiglio assolutamente!
