Hey, when i run my PB with my left hand something in my elbow clicks, i can both hear and feel it, but only when i have my arm extended in a certain way.

does this happen to anyone else?

It will be most likely your finger muscles as they anchor at the elbow. Possibly you have some tightness/inflexibility.
Alternatively, it COULD be your elbow joint at the joint which allows you to turn your palm face up and face down. But this is very unlikely.

If its painfree, I woldn't worry, but you may want to try the following stretch:
With your elbow locked straight pull your fingers back (away from the palm). Add more stretch with your other hand if needed. Hold 20s
Keep elbow straight, stretch fingers the other way (towards palm), again using other hand for extra "push" if needed. Hold 20s.

Do this 2x per day

Hope this helps

It happens but not when I work with PB.

Yeah this happens to me more than often for the last 4 years. It doesnt hurt but it concerns me. I guess at 35 l am getting old, its all down hill now.
