Hi guys, started bjj 2 months ago doing 2 gi classes a week, simple and sinister twice a week.
The last 3 weeks ive had golfers elbow so ive started doing 1 gi and 1 no gi as im sure its down to gripping the gi thats causing most of the pain after rolling, gives me more recovery time after which i feel i need.
I could probably carry on with the above but ive dropped all my simple and sinister training due to my elbows hurting every day, ive not picked up a bell for 3 weeks and already feeling weaker but just dont want to do my elbows more damage to where i have to have time off bjj.
I know from previous tennis elbow it can take months to heal
I dont know whether to stop strength training altogether for a while or just work through it.
Any advise appreciated
