What are you doing besides cardio? If your taking the lessons there are a bunch of lower body exercises listed. https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gifI train my lower body once a week if that, because I focus so much on extending the leg lines and the dance aspect of pole, my legs get a good workout.

Chimponaut…if it was a new injury then Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation, would be needed for 48-72 hs. But it sounds like this has been an on going issue. For myself, if something was chronic and on going like my bicep issue. I found this worked for ME..
Rest..as soon as the injury begin acting up I would rest for at least a few days, still using the arm but not doing anything I knew would aggravate it.
After rest…Heat for 10-20 mins and then follow with stretches. I did this at least once a day for a while. Try using the stretching lessons for the forearms.
Once I was feeling better, I started with conditioning exercises using isometric and eccentric movements. You could try using the exercises for forearms in the lessons here. I added massage when I started the conditioning. You don't need to massage the tendon, but rather along the triceps and forearm muscles. Don't forget to stretch after your exercises too!
Once your back on the pole always stretch the forearms after every pole session and even throughout your session if you can.
Most important…listen to your body, if your not improving then something isn't working and needs to be adjusted.

Ollie, I agree. I personally think he might be training too much for a child. But, then again, we push our kids physical limits with other sports as well, which I also don't feel is healthy. If he is enjoying it that's great, but I think its the parents responsibility to make sure their child grows up healthy. He may truly love to train all day long but that doesn't mean the should let him. But then again….. We also don't know the story and maybe he has plenty of playtime and a very happy life.

@ Chimponaut, have you tried using heat instead of ice? This has worked very well for me with my own injuries. I had some bad ligament injury to my foot (when I broke it) and using heat, massage and conditioning exercises for my foot has done wonders! I also had a bicep injury over a yr ago and was getting no where, until I stopped icing and went to eccentric strength training, heat and massage. I think sometimes we over ice and there for slow down the healing process. When decided how to handle my recent foot injury I had come across a few studies where heat turned out to be more beneficial than the traditional ice, ice and more ice method. Ice is very important immediately following an injury for 48-72 hrs but after that I go for heat. If I find the article I'll post it. If your taking the lessons I also have 6 exercises that are great for conditioning the wrist, forearms and elbows. Starting with this one https://stage.studioveena.com/lessons/view/72a0fb04-b88f-11df-856f-001b214581be
