Biceps Tendinopathy Climbing Movement Tips

This is a video from the Rock Rehab Pyramids to help you reduce the change of a rotator cuff strain while climbing. Climbing with bent arms and straight legs, underclings and sidepulls all place additional stress on the biceps. This increased stress over time can lead to a strain of the biceps tendon as it inserts into the bone. To avoid injury from climbing with bent elbows, transfer the weight into your shoulder blades and the powerful leg muscles. You can do so by straightening your arms, retracting your shoulder blades and bending your knees. When performing an undercling, remember to keep your hips pressed forward and the weight in your toes. If you are required to use a sidepull, make sure to put the weight into the outside edge of your opposite foot as this will balance the forces throughout your body more evenly. The "Rock Rehab Pyramid" is a system developed to prevent and rehabilitate rock climbing injury. The goal of the four-phase system is to take you from the pain, inflammation and tissue overload stage to gain full mobility, strength and eventually pain-free climbing movement.
