been battling with local elbow pain in my left arm. its affecting my ability to do any sort of heavy presses. for the longest time i didn't notice much in terms of uneven strength and lopsided because i always bench in smith machine or hammer strength etc.
but i tried to do dumbells and incline barbell at my gym and i noticed when i bench anything over 275 its all lopsided lol. the left arm with the bad elbow is the one on the lower end.
also i tried to do seated dumbells. up to 90 its okay can't tell but with 100s the left arm just doesn't wanna push?? the right arm is way ahead in terms of getting the weight up?
do you guys think its all local or is there some imbalance coming from higher up? i have had it massaged and prolo therapy but still it persists. i also can't do overhead tricep extensions or skull crushers it kills.
wondering if its bad elbow tendonitis. been 3-4 months now.
