In this episode of the Stretch Mobility Coaching Podcast, I’m diving into one of the most overlooked issues I see in the gym and in daily life—nagging elbow aches and weakness. You know the feeling: it’s not painful enough to stop you from working out, but it keeps showing up during curls, presses, pulls, or even when you’re just going about your day.
What if I told you the real problem isn’t your elbow at all? In this episode, I break down why the elbow often takes the load when your shoulder, wrist, or even your spine isn’t moving the way it should. I’ll explain how unhealthy flexibility in key areas of your body can silence muscles, disrupt movement, and leave your elbow carrying the burden.
You’ll learn:
Why the elbow is more like a “middleman” than the root of the problem
How unhealthy flexibility in your neck, thoracic spine, shoulders, and wrists shows up as elbow pain or weakness
What joint optimization and muscle activation really mean—and why they’re the key to lasting strength and movement health
Why waiting until it hurts (or bracing, stretching, and masking symptoms) only delays your recovery
If you’ve been rubbing, stretching, or massaging your elbow without lasting relief, this episode will give you a whole new perspective. Don’t wait until something breaks—your flexibility is 100% in your control, and the earlier you reset it, the faster you’ll get back to full strength.
