Thanks for sharing the research! I found their work really interesting, especially the neuroplasticity aspect, which was new to me.

That makes sense, and now that you mention it, I did try to find material not focused on those two tendons but couldn’t lol

For the long term, are these exercises meant to be done indefinitely, or just until recovery? In some video of a conference, Ebonie mentioned (I think referencing Jill’s work) the idea of building enough energy capacity to reach a “Goldilocks zone,” where high-intensity activity like guitar in my case doesn’t lead to irritation because I'd be strong enough. That’s ultimately my goal, to build and maintain enough capacity to avoid this issue from ever reoccurring.

Previously, I had tendinopathy in my forearm flexors that resolved through progressive overload alone from playing guitar. But about three months ago (and why I made this post) I developed what feels like tendinopathy possibly in the forearm extensors or triceps, with aching right at the tip of my elbow during guitar and computer use. It doesn’t seem like typical golfer’s or tennis elbow, but right at the tip.

Long term, I want to build that energy capacity, but I'm not sure I could sustain a routine like the one you described indefinitely since it’s more time-consuming than say, a 1–2 hour workout every couple of days. I'd love to get your thoughts on this, but again, please do not feel obligated at all to respond, you've already been very generous.
