    I suffered from "jeweler's elbow," and my neighbor showed me an
    exercise which has helped a lot. It's done with small weights (I use
    5 lb dumbbells, but you can use cans or anything which will give you
    some resistance.) 

    Holding the weights, start with your arms straight out to the sides,
    palms down, and bring your hands to your chest, then back out
    straight. Repeat, each time starting with your hands turned a little
    until eventually you are starting with the palms up. I do it sitting
    down, but that's just me. 

    Hope this helps; it's pretty much eliminated the problem for me. I
    think the different elbow positions are what helps.
