Left elbow joint pain has been keeping me from going hard.... Painful to do back moves like pull-ups and rows... It might be tendinitis, it sucks...any suggestions for treatments or alternative back exercises?

Does it hurt while flexing or extending the wrist?

Fully extended and fully flexed... Midpoint have no pain at all. I was told it could be CPS from HGH supplementation.

I'd give Cissus a try. While most studies support bone/fracture healing, there is the possibility for joint/tendon repair as well. And a plethora of anecdotal evidence out there. Additionally, it is highly anti-inflammatory which may aid in discomfort, as well as a mild pain reliever.
One of the most notable studies showed a 31% reduction in pain from baseline for exercise related pain in healthy men. The effective dose for this study was 3200amg daily for 8 weeks.
Anecdotally speaking, effective doses for most are 2-4g per day in separated doses. Cissus standardized for 40% Ketosterones tends to be more "anabolic" while that standardized for 20% Ketosterones tends to aid more in pain relief and repair.
Cissus does havethe potential for muscle relaxation (at around 30min after ingestion). So technically, avoiding pre-workout would be best, but I've never had an issue when used pre-workout. In fact, there is a thing called the "cissus pump" so you might get a nice pump after about 2 weeks of use.
