Tweaked elbow

 Well this was weird.  Started feeling the tricep load up at 155 and thought it was weird.It had felt perfectly normal all this time

I think the elbow is unstable now and rotates in or out under not perfect load. and I think I've been weighting it more all this time

Put an elbow sleeve on and 175 felt fine

then 195 and I can see in the video my left elbow is higher; much higher, than my right and the bar shifts but the tricep didn't hurt

then to 205 which was fine

then to repeat it and the bar got out in front of me a bit( trying more kono style and right as I was about to lockout I felt it grind and a slight  tearing feel/ sound and knew right away something was wrong

It didn't really hurt after but I knew I had injured, not just tweaked it

Floss, ice, light pushdown and laterals and rear delts, light

today, Tuesday it feels 80 % right but I'm done pressing for awhile ( barbell) Not sure what else will be the main course but I'll know more when it heals: kb press, pushups, swipes, arm casts? not sure but I am sure I don't ever want to be really injured again

For any lift
