I went back and looked at some video and noticed something. I use an index finger on ring grip and when I get close to touching chest my elbow is way in and my wrist is out wide yet. I think this is what is putting so much pressure on my elbow. Should the elbow remain directly under the wrist the entire time? I just used the bar and toyed around with my elbow placement and I noticed if I keep my elbow lined up with my wrist i didn't get any pain. I just assumed that "tucking elbows" meant to pull your elbows as far in as you can. Is it important to have everything lined up. I am consistently working with over 600lbs and I want get this elbow and form issue figured out before I really damage myself.

: I doubt it is the shirt. Are you trying

: your bar path from the side and watch
: your elbow track. Make sure they are
: under the bar all the time.

: Now I have a problem with my elbow. I

: Is it possible that my shirt seam was
: in a bad spot and was putting pressure
: on a nerve or something? I try to keep
: elbows flared somewhat, this doesn't
: seem to bother elbow, but when I tuck

: tucking elbows in without even having a
