Overview

In this lesson, we present PAILS and RAILS techniques for elbow extension.

Objective

Understand how progressive isometric loading builds strength and range in terminal elbow extension.

What You'll Get

You'll work through a structured protocol that trains the elbow to not only straighten but stay strong in full extension. This is critical for weight-bearing poses and for clients recovering from hyperextension injuries. The method is deliberate and demanding, but it creates durable change that passive stretching can't match.
