Dr. Terry Zachary explains the best, most thorough, tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis) exercise that strengthens and balances all 27 muscles involved in any grip function.
What is tennis elbow?
Tennis elbow (or lateral epicondylitis) is very simply an inflammation of the tendons that insert onto the lateral epicondyle. There are five tendons that make up this common extensor tendon of the lateral elbow. Two of the tendons are finger extensor muscles and three of the tendons are wrist extensor tendons. These tendons become inflamed because of repetitive gripping, repetitive stress injury (RSI), poor strength training, and overuse.
The Handmaster Plus 'Figure 8 Exercise' strengthens 1) the 9 muscles that close the hand, 2) the 9 muscles that open the hand, and 3) the 9 muscles that support the hand properly in any grip position, all in one easy, continuous exercise through full natural ranges of motion (ROM's).
The Handmaster Plus Figure 8 exercise provides an advanced level of grip strength training for grip athletes, musicians, workers, gamers, esports athletes, computer users, and hobbyists. It prevents tennis elbow while providing maximum strength, muscle balance and blood flow to the 27 grip muscles. Ideal as a take home recovery exercise for tennis elbow.
Any tennis elbow exercise that is performed with the hand or hands closed cannot thoroughly address tennis elbow because two of the five muscles that originate from the lateral epicondyle will be trained statically (i.e., the finger extensor muscles). This is because two of the five muscles of the common extensor tendon are finger extensors, which contract statically in support of the finger flexor muscles during grip. Grip is a complicated multi-muscle action, and is the main reason why tennis elbow is rampant in athletes, musicians, workplaces, gamers, computer users and hobbyists.
The Figure 8 Exercises easily addresses the maintenance of the 27 grip muscles, also known as the mechanical (or kinetic) chain of grip.

Thank you for providing excellent instruction on the chain of how we grip - great for gamers, computer users, chefs, musicians, and athletes ! Very good.
You're very welcome!

Hi Dr. Zack. Thanks for giving good insight. Just the video I wanted out of desperation. I've been suffering from persistent tennis elbow for past 9 months. The long period is mostly myself to blame due to lack of ignorance as I kept playing badminton through the pain till it got unbearable. Now I've been more informative and doing wrist stretches to improve elbow tendon healing. I'm doing figure 8 using a badminton racket and its great.
Bravo. That will help, but remember 2 of the tendons that attach at the lateral epicondyle are finger extensors, which are contracted, static & short if you are gripping while doing The Figure 8 Exercise. That being said it will help all wrist & forearm muscles training in full 3D motions.
LOVE my handmaster plus ----- ! Questions: How many rounds is appropriate for maintenance/training and what do you recommend for aftercare (self-massage, ointments, etc..)? Also how often can we train this area in a week?? Thanks!!!
Thank JahSun. Repeat until comfortable fatigue each session. This differs for each user. Usually 30 seconds to one minute. Repeat 1-3 times daily. It is most important to be consistent, so daily is recommended.
@@doczac Awesome! FYI - I emailed you today. I wanted to purchase a firm but had a question at checkout. Love your product💪🏾

Does the figure 8 move work for golfer's elbow as well? I have been working for 2 months with the Handmaster Plus doing the following: squeeze the ball, then spread the fingers and thumb, and then extend the wrist. 3 sets of 10-15 reps every other day. My tennis elbow is better but the golfer's elbow is not getting much better.
Mike... yes, move add the Figure 8 Exercise if your health care professional approves. It is for complete balance of the grip muscles.
would you recommend the Powerball/gyro ball as well for treating tennis elbow? thanks
Thanks for your Q. The common extensor tendon that originates from the lateral epicondyle of the humerus is the tendon that gets inflamed in tennis elbow situations (ie., lateral epicondylitis). The common extensor tendon is made of 5 muscles, 3 are wrist extensor and 2 are finger extensor muscles. The gyro ball does not train finger extension (otherwise the gyro ball would fall to the ground). Thus, it's incomplete. Handmaster Plus Finger 8 exercise strengthens all 5 muscles of the common extensor tendon through full ROM's.
thanks for your reply yes what I was asking is an addition to using the headmaster plus what I benefit from also doing exercises with the Powerball
@@rainham1 Yes, Handmaster Plus together with gyro ball is a very complete exercise for all finger, thumb, hand, wrist, forearm & elbow muscles
hello, i have pain while serving. I experience pain above my elbow, just behind my bicep which extends throw my elbow and forearm. Is this also tennis elbow?
Visit a health care professional to have your arm evaluated.
Also, I need a handmaster plus. I live in India. Please guide me how to get a handmaster plus delivered to address here. Thank you, doc.
yes, on our site we can deliver to India... takes 4-6 weeks. It's not quick.
My Q is now I get elbow ache only if I flex my wrist when the forearm is supinated. Otherwise it doesn't hurt in any arm motion. So it still needs more time maybe another 6 weeks to heal fully. Do u think I can start playing in another 6 weeks or wait longer? I'm afraid if I start playing I might end up opening the injury and repeating the whole cycle which im frustrated with this whole year.
You should be able to move through all ranges of motion when the elbow is balanced and stable.
Would you say that this is better than the Theraband Flex Bar?
The Handmaster Plus Figure 8 exercise creates resistance to all muscles that affect the elbow balance and stability through full ranges of motion. Flex Bar has the hand always closed/gripping. It is effective at releasing an area of the elbow, but not addressing the entire elbow. The key to stabilizing the elbow is training the whole elbow, not just part. Handmaster Plus' focus is greater than 'only' the symptomatic section, it addresses the stability of the whole joint and related structures.
@@doczac Ok, so I’m commenting 6 months later and I can say that you were 100% correct about that
I'm sure this is a helpful thing but as soon as I heard him say "sports chiropractic practice" I moved on. "Chiropractic" is quackery so I can't take any of them seriously. Nice guy I'm sure with good intent but I'm on to the next video.
A claim. Prove it.
@@Milpower why? to argue with some random internet being? no thanks.
For some reason, we are not getting these messages. This one particularly is naive. Is there any part of the explanation of grip & tennis elbow that you don't agree with understand? The idea that a title would have you dismiss the mechanics is an example of the blindness in the health & fitness sector. Thanks for the example.
Your ignorance will cut you off to a lot of great health & fitness information, but historically, you're not alone. You've been well hypnotized. Good luck keeping well with that point of view
