Hello guys, I have been experiencing elbow tendon pain since last year. it only comes occasionally, especially when i try to increase weight. as a result, i have been stucked with the same weight for my barbell benchpress. any one has any tips on how to treat this problem?  i often have the pain on my left elbow when i do bench press, skull crasher, and dumbell dips. what should i do so that i can continue to grow my chest and triceps? thanks!

had the same prob. took a week or a month off. do a one bodypart per week split. go high rep hypertrophy sets, 5x15. progression through less rest time between sets. add weights when only you can complete all 5x15.
i attribute my prob to doing too heavy too much coupled with crappy genes.

If you are having elbow pain when doing bench press try changing your grip width. Go with a closer grip, that way it will take some pressure off your elbow and move it to your biceps.
