EVOLVED ELBOWS
Because Band Pull-Aparts
Won't Cut It
Your elbow hurts.
Maybe it's golfer's elbow that flares up every time you bench press. Maybe it's tennis elbow from too many KB snatches. Maybe you're a pitcher dealing with medial elbow pain that your PT called "tendinitis" and told you to rest, but resting just made you weaker.
You've done the standard protocol: rest, ice, eccentric wrist curls, grip work, scap retractions, band pull-aparts until your arms fall off.
And it helped. Sort of. Until you loaded it again.
Here's why your elbow rehab keeps failing:
Elbow problems are accuracy problems.
You think you're loading your pronators, but you're actually just curling your wrist. You think you're strengthening your supinators, but your shoulder is doing the work. You think you're training elbow stability, but you're compensating through your shoulder blade.
Your elbow doesn't need more exercises.
It needs the right load, in the right position, with zero substitution.
That's the level of precision elbow rehab demands.
Most programs throw exercises at the wall and hope something sticks. Evolved Elbows teaches you to diagnose which tissues actually need loading, then shows you how to load them without your body cheating its way around the problem.
Here’s What’s Inside:
-
How to identify which structure is the actual problem (medial vs. lateral, pronator vs. flexor, joint vs. tendon)
Movement testing that reveals substitution patterns you didn't know you had
The role of your pinky (yes, really) in elbow force distribution and why ignoring it keeps you injured
-
Pronation and supination drills that isolate the forearm rotation you're supposed to be training
Wrist deviation work that eliminates compensation patterns
Grip training that actually loads elbow tissues instead of just making your hands tired
Elbow flexion and extension progressions that teach your body to stop offloading to the shoulder
-
How to build from "this hurts" to "I can actually throw/lift/train again"
Training frequency that matches tissue adaptation timelines (hint: 2-3x per week, not daily)
Load progressions that challenge the tissue without re-injuring it
-
Pitcher-specific elbow conditioning
Lifter elbow rehabilitation for pressing and pulling
Overhead athlete protocols for tennis, volleyball, and throwing sports
Real progressions you can follow, adapt, and repeat
-
Because "load your pronators" means nothing if you can't tell when you're actually doing it.

“I used to have chronic elbow pain every season. Thought it was just part of pitching. Did this program in the off-season—pitched 100mph regularly and texted Austin at the end of the season: ‘Dude, I can't believe how good I feel.’”
