[QUOTE="bleedinbrown58, post: 1936101, member: 46975"] Try and keep your elbows close to your sides of your torso while lifting/carrying and keep heavy packages close to your chest....it puts less stress on your joints while lifting. Aka work within your Power Zone, and avoid end range motions (like not lifting a package out in front of you with arms somewhat extended). It sounds like cheesy UPS garbage jargon....but it does make a difference over time. Mueller makes a good elbow Velcro brace...I think I paid less than 10 bucks at Walmart. Try it....the extra support might help with the pain. [/QUOTE]
