Let the elbows crack and pop on the first few reps, then you should be good-to-go!
I used to deal with elbow pain similar to what OP is describing, but one day I learned how to pop my elbow and I haven't had pain since. I have no idea if the popping actually helps it or if I did something else differently, but I pop my elbow regularly now just in case.

Get yourself some resistance bands and before you start benching or doing military press use the resistance band to stretch out your rotator cuffs and also do very basic triceps exercises with them (like tricep press down and overhead tricep extension). This allows for a lot more blood flow in the arm and loosens up the elbow. I have to do it before any pressing movements (old Judo and Jiujitsu injuries).

When im doing my stretches ill sometimes accidently crack the elbow just above the olecranon process and it feels AMAZING. i wish i knew how to do it on command
