Enjoyable chat with Colin Griffin who is undertaking an exercise trial for Achilles tendinopathy. We touched on so many important rehab considerations, including:
Strength profiling for Achilles tendinopathy
Assessing endurance, maximal dynamic and isometric calf capacity, and plyometric function and reactivity
Home vs gym based rehab
Why some people may have poorer outcomes

Here is a link to his open access trial protocol: https://bmcmusculoskeletdisord.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s12891-021-04553-6

This podcast will delve deep into the best and most clinically relevant new studies on tendinopathy. The focus is what questions the researchers tried to answer and why, how they did it, what they found, and very importantly, the so what factor. That is, how can it be applied to the clinic and to individual tendinopathy patients.
