Hey /fit/, lately whenever I hit my chest or triceps I can feel the tendon(s) in my elbow clicking/sliding over the joint and if I do a hard workout, they hurt pretty bad after for a couple days. I went to the gym 5/6 days a week for 8 months last year up until April, got lazy and stopped, and started coming again a month ago which is when i noticed this. It hadn't happened before in those past 8 months. I don't believe it is my form because the tendons click on any exercise hitting triceps or chest. They do not click when I do biceps, which i have no trouble doing. Any advice/suggestions/probable causes?

what exercises do you do? I found I have the same problem when I do free weight extensions. I removed extremely heavy extensions (skullcrushers, didn't realize it was an extension) and it helped alot. now only do one with low weight

In general, if you go to heavy on any cable lifts, you can developed tendonitis. The cables are constantly fucking up my tendies. Especially my tricep tendies for push downs

Lifting me for 25 years.
Elbows click when I do "behind the head" raises.
No click when I do rope extensions, plate thrusts, Hammer Strength..... Body Masters...

Tricep pulldowns, dips, dumbbell bench, skullcrushers.. typical shit. Any weight on that extension motion makes them click. Are there exercises I can do that don't involve this motion??? I honestly don't think there are.

I got wrist wraps, fixed that problem for me

Does that mean the problem would be more so in how my wrists are bending doing these motions then it is my elbows themselves? It kind of makes sense when you think aboutbhow the tendons connect, but I get sore a little bit above my elbow too
