To be honest, I haven’t even tried it yet. I ended up getting a shot in my elbow because the pain was so bad. Exercise didn’t seem to help it. But I have the Flexbar & will use it if the elbow acts up again in the future!

good seller, arrived quickly. Too early to say if it is effective for tennis elbow.

I bought the heavy flexbar to use with my exercises to help cure my tennis elbow. Unfortunatly, it is way too thick for me to grip it comfortably. The diameter is 1 and 7/8 inches (too bad this data wasn’t included with all the other information they show). I suspect that the medium one would work better.

I tried the soft (red) bar somewhere for twisting motion and liked it but it was too soft for me. I purchased the meduim stiffness one and after trying it a few times for twisting motion I gave up using it. The twisting motion creates too much friction on palm of my hands and after a few minutes my skin starts burning. Now I only use it for flexing which works better without skin irritation. However, the flexing motion range is rather small and starts too easily and ends too hard. It is just a small range of motion that the resistance is just right. This is a problem with all spring-like devices as opposed to dead weight resistance. So, not a total loss but not as good as I thought it would be.

This product is easy to use. It can be used to make eccentric exercises easier by deforming the bar and slowly allowing it to go back to normal. The only weakness is that it smells kind of strong when it is fresh. Some plastic/rubber product smell. If you have an open gym, I recommend leaving it out there instead of in the office.
