How to Get Mechanical Strength and Stiffness Gains With Light Loaded Exercises

Isometrics can help with pain relief and to load the tendon. Are you also getting mechanical strength and stiffness by doing isometrics? You will with heavy slow resistance training as well, but you need to consider both of those things. There was a study. I actually talked to Peter Malayaris a few days ago. He referenced a study of blood flow restriction where they saw similar changes. It was in the Achilles similar changes in the Achilles with blood flow restriction and heavy load training.
