Try sleeves or wrap them during heavy sets. Helped mine a lot. 💪

Yeah I’ve been going heavy on skull crushers lately. Might swap them out and see if that calms things down.

Check your lockout. Hard snapping at the top can wreck elbows.

Warm up your elbows more. Light pushdowns before heavy pressing helps.

Too much skull crushers will do that real quick.

Sounds like elbow tendonitis starting up, not just gym tax.

My triceps feel fine but my elbows feel like 90-year-old joints. Is this a form issue or is this just “gym tax”?
