I used to be a gymnast ,but I switched over to tennis about 4 years ago. I am just looking for some good ways to get those muscles back again. Tennis doesn’t really stress that as much.

We are going through a big audit at work and ever since then I wake up with the joints in my fingers, knees, ankles, toes, elbows, and neck being very stiff and painful, like arthritis. I am 38-years-old and have had osteoarthritis in my fingers since my early 20s (genetic). Could this be arthritis brought up by on-the-job stress? (The only over-the-counter painkiller that works is ibuprofen, and ibuprofen makes me go to sleep, even if I take only 200 mg)

I have a balanced diet.. I dont eat very healthy things but I eat alot of fruit and veg aswell.. Doc tried to pin it on anxiety but im not an anxious person.. I live a pretty stress free lifestyle.. People say im so laid back im horizontal lol.. Im also having head aches and pain on my eyes.. the head ache seems to occur at the sides of my head and top.. got blood tests done and nothing came up.. Doc gave me amoxicillin for inflamation in my ears.. so tht might explain head aches.. and light headedness.. My hands and feet seem to be quite cold alot of the time I heard thats something to do with circulation but Im not sure.. any ideas people? (Oh i recently had a viral throat infection and doc said it might be post viral fatigue *blood test covered glandular fever*)

OK. my eczema experience goes like this..
i was a toddler, i had eczema on my elbows. then it went off.
then i got it around my mouth when i was 12, that was due to stress.
then when i was 13, it disappeared and i was fine.
it came back when i was 14. turmoil year. i had eczema on my face, front of my neck, folds of my arms, the back of my legs. the areas where i sweat. at the start of the year, i was playing a lot of tennis, so i had white spots on my face, people told me they were sweat spots. then suddenly they appeared on my right hand. my baby finger web. one tiny patch of it. then it went off after a while. then suddenly it appeared on my index finger web. just one small patch of it. then it went off. then it appeared on the side of my middle finger. went off again. then came back on the other side. now, i have it real bad. on my index finger web, whole middle finger, and a bit on my baby finger web. how does it randomly just come back?
and it’s only on my RIGHT HAND. my left hand is perfect. and it’s not on the back of my hand either. just on the webs.
i stopped all steroid usage because i started a homeopathy treatment called herose. has anyone heard of it?
to me it sounds like my eczema is a mix of child eczema and some other weird kind.
does anyone have symptoms kinda like mine?
one other thing i noticed. stress is a big factor of it. when i was in bali, my skin was perfect. it just disappeared. smooth. no scars.
plus, it’s soo hard not to scratch. i tried emu cream. which only made me itch worse.
and for some reason when i put lotion on the affected areas (excluding face) it makes me itch worse,

I am a pretty serious junior player and I play almost every day. But my elbow is bugging me a lot and I know it is my forehand that is causing the stress. One coach said I kind of slap at the ball and dont go low to high to create topsin, also I use to much arm and not enough body yet I tried that and it still seemed to hurt to today.

I’m 23 year old. One month ago I started having joint pain without swelling (knee, wrist, elbow, ankle) after waking up in the morning. It’s so hard for me to wake up and I feel like I’ve never slept at all. Then my body is weak and tired for the whole day. I’ve checked my blood (Calcicum, ASLO, RF, TSH, T4, VSS, GGT), urine and taken X-ray of all my joints. The results are all good. I’ve tried to rest and exercise regularly but I still could not recover. All the doctors I have visited told me that my symptoms are caused by stress. Is it true ? I don’t think my life is too stressful to make me sick like that. Pls help me. I feel so bad because I could not start my work due to my weakness.

I give you my historical heaIth. I’ve had rheumatis fever when I was 13 year old. I’ve taken penicillin one table per day until now. 3 years ago I’ve cut my tonsil because it caused me sore throat all the time. After this operation, my sore throat is not too serious but I still have everyday.

tendonitis elbow surgeryWe’ve all heard about tennis elbow, and many of us have suffered from it. In reality, it is a form of tendonitis brought on by the frequent, repetitive motions involved in playing tennis.

Tendonitis, however, is not limited to the elbow or arm. It can occur throughout the body. Any activity which places stress on the same tendon can cause that tendon to become inflamed and sore.

Chronic Tendonitis

Tendonitis can be either acute (i.e. a temporary flare up) or chronic (i.e. long lasting). When tendonitis keeps recurring, it is called chronic tendonitis.

Tendons are composed of elastic-like tissue which connects our muscles to our bones. As we age, tendons tend to lose their elasticity through normal wear and tear. From time to time, a tendon will break or tear and scar tissue forms in the healing process. Scar tissue is not as flexible as tendon tissue and frequently causes pain and inflammation with continued use and motion. Most often the areas affected are elbows, knees, ankles, shoulders and feet.

Obviously it’s these parts of our anatomy that see repeated use during the course of a normal day. As we continue placing strain on an injured tendon, it doesn’t have an opportunity to heal which, in turn, leads to chronic tendonitis.

Age is only one of the underlying causes of chronic tendonitis. Athletes who are highly trained and in superb condition can also suffer from chronic tendonitis. Again, it is the repetitive motions required by a variety of sports that cause the condition to erupt. For example, repeated motion of the golfer’s swing or a pitcher’s throwing arm in baseball over the course of time can cause weakness in the tissue and lead to inflammation of the muscles and tendons. This is why it’s so important to do stretching exercises and warm ups prior to strenuous activity.

Left untreated, things can only get worse. Both acute and chronic tendonitis sometimes will result in a tear or rupture of the tendon. In this case, the physician will probably prescribe surgery, but only after more conservative measures have failed.

Treating Chronic Tendonitis

Acute or chronic tendonitis can cause mild to severe pain. In its simplest and most conservative approach, treatment will involve analgesics such as ibuprofen and resting the affected area. Depending on the severity, your physician may conclude that you will benefit from an anti-inflammatory medication and may prescribe cortisone injections. This is an effective, and powerful anti-inflammatory medication that helps to reduce the pain and swelling and promote healing of tendonitis. Treatment may also include mild stretching exercises in order to keep the joints flexible.

Just a word of caution is in order. Corticosteroids can be injected but they do not come without risks. One of their side effects is that they can weaken the immune system or infection can appear at the injection site. Again, It is critical that the tendon be given time to heal or more serious tendon injury can occur. And, as mentioned, surgery may be required in cases of tears or ruptures in order to repair the damage and relieve the pain of chronic tendonitis.

Many people experience elbow pain and tennis elbow signs and symptoms from performing certain movements or exercises. This is often an agonizing pain that does not seem to go away, and truth is that it is not going to dissappear until the proper physical therapy treatment is put in place.

If you are suffering from tennis elbow symptoms, you might want to take a closer look at the following treatment guide for physical therapy for tennis elbow :

Tennis Elbow Secrets Revealed.

Tennis elbow pain does not necessarily appear in combination with sports activities. All people can develope tennis elbow simply by performing certain motions slightly wrong on a daily basis. Many jobs involve repetetive motions that is putting a lot of  stress on the elbow, for instance tasks that include a high amount of twisting motions.

When it comes to sports, it is a well-know fact that many users of the Bullworker, Everlast Power Bow, and other types of Isometric exercise equipment are suffering from tennis elbow. The most common reason for this is that they mistakenly hold the isometric contraction on each repetition. What I mean by that is when you are compressing the Bullworker you want to compress it all the way till you can’t go any more … right?

Well that’s why so many people are getting “tennis elbow” from their Bullworker exercises. What it really boils down to is the way they are exercising with their Bullworker is all wrong.

The correct way to train with a Bullworker type device or any isometric exercise equipment is to perform only 1 isometric hold. Contrary to the exercise method the Bullworker promotes… DO NOT TRAIN EVERYDAY!

I love isometric training.

lateral epicondylitis rehabIt’s one of the fastest ways to increase strength and muscle size without having to spend hours working out. Only problem is the human body responds to various forms of training. To sit here and deny it would be ridiculous… even though many “Isometric Purist” do.

They have take on the mantra of “Isometric-ism.” I believe in Bruce Lee’s Jeet Kune Do philosophy.

My favorite quote of his is “Use only that which works, and take it from any place you can find it.”

The revolutionary “ISO-SYNERGY” training program takes all the various, scientifically proven training protocols and applies them to Bullworker exercises.

I’ll be posting more on this later on.

For now by no means do multiple isometric holds with any kind of Bullworker type isometric exercise equipment
