Are you sure its tendonitis Prowl or could it possibly be carpal tunnel syndrome?

I eat baby aspirin like tic tac s in the winter. They taste good and work for ME.
Tis frustrating I know. Right now my left elbow s the culprit..doing 2 handed tricep db extensions sitting up with 100-120 pd dumbbell s are my fav tri mass builder but yesterday I had to settle w 75 s for 25 rep s.
U do what you can , you get on with you got as the only e z day was yesterday.

Man, I get this too even with high T that's in range on labwork. Worst place it manifest is in shaking hands! In fact, outside the gym that's the only thing that hurts.
It was so bad a while ago I just started hugging my friends I hadn't seen in a while, explaining my elbow hurt to shake hands. Within a couple of days word got around, and I'd get a hug instead of a handshake. Kinda cracked me up, but nice to have friends who actually pay attention. Plus, a hug is such a nice thing...yeah, touchy feely and all that...I'm in touch with my female side, but you should know she's a lesbian.
ANYWAY...here's the one thing I've tried that fixes it: Take a barbell and put it on a box so it's elevated off the floor. Put a small weight or t-shirt on one end close to the collars, put a second barbell on top of that, and secure the other end by wrapping one of those giant rubber bands (like people use to help with pullups) around the other end. The space between the collars on the end with the rubber band is where you insert your arm and roll it between the collars. Just forcing your arm to roll between the collars from wrist to elbow mashes the crap out of those muscles, and it's instant relief.
If my description is making no sense whatsoever, I'll post a video. It really is freaking magic. Yes, it looks like you're fisting the stacked barbells, but trust me...magic.
I've covered lesbian internal female side to fisting barbells...my work here is done.

Eq lubes you up? You mean deca?
I get horrible forearm pain alot. Even forearm splints, if there's such a thing. Feels exactly like shin splints where there is an intense pain running right down the bone.
I'll keep an eye on this to see if he posts a video cause me quickly reading his description made no sense at all. I wouldn't mind a remedy to this. I recently took about a month off from lifting to try to get it to heal.

Ya EQ lubing up might have been a bad choice of words, this is a post I found from another forum about tendons and collagen synthesis. Here is just a little bit of it.
Deca, Equipoise, Anavar, and Primobolan will ALL increase skeletal muscle while at the same time dramatically increase collagen syn and bone mass and density, leaving you with a substantially reduced chance of becoming injured than if you choose to use AAS like sus, cyp, or enth.
While testosterone will increase bone mass and density, even at supra-physiological levels, the result is weaker tendons due to inhibition of collagen syn.

Cool. I learned something. I knew deca helped "lube" the joints, but didn't know this. I stay away from the eq cause every time I bring it up mega grosses me out talking about yogurt blood or something. He always adds the "yummmm" at the end which really adds to grossing me out.

I use the collars on the left. Move the band closer or further as needed to get the tension you need. And start at the outside of the collars, and as you man up during the process, move closer to the band. A smashing and mashing like you can't achieve any other way. Try it!

I had this problem for years especially in my elbows. Its gone now and i do believe i have the answer for you. First one is diet. Trust me, its more of a factor than you think. Foods high in fat and very processed cause inflammation everywhere and make tendonitis occurences much more frequent. The next big thing is ego lifting. Just cuz ur juicing and ur bench goes up 100 lbs doesnt mean u should bench that much more in such a short period of time. You need to slowly work up with weight and focus on form and control. I am growing like crazy and i dont do anything weight wise that i cant do 12 times. In fact, i do reps of 20 and i am growing like a mad man. Just my .02 cents

I'm not insinuating that you don't know what you're doing, but I'm wagering it's your form brother. You're likely doing a press of some sort that's hyperextending your wrists, and it gets worse as you get stronger - forcing them further and further back. I'd look there for starters.
Also, there are just some exercises I just can't do anymore. Shoulder press/OHP/Military press used to be one of my favorites; but as I've gotten older, I just can't take the constant compression that happens in the shoulders, so I don't do them anymore. Am I physically capable of doing them? Absolutely. However, I find that I pay dearly afterwards. Same with doing concentration curls; I can do them, and I love the pump they give - but they really wreck my radial-ulnar tendon that inserts at my elbow. I'd see if that might be the case too.
You can pick up wrist supportive straps, but I'd be cautious as that can mask any potential issues that could pop up once the "weak link" has been removed from the equation.

this is the long form of my thought. Lol. I hear Ya tho, stuf gets wore out with age and repitition of use. I've done construction labor work all my working life. Age catches up, to some of us quicker than others. Good point Halfwit.

No offence taken bro, my tendinitis actually got agravtted at work this time around. I know on cycle the stronger u get in a short time can cause this,but I am very cautious cause I've been dealing with this for a while. I know age has a big factor as well, not getting any younger. Will definitely be watching what I'm doing in the gym, was just curious if there was any otc remedy that helps with it.
