Takeaways

Taylor Starch has been in the strength and conditioning industry for about 15 years.
His interest in tendons grew from personal injuries and working with military athletes.
Understanding tendons requires recognizing their complexity and variability.
Different tissues in the body respond to different types of training.
Tendons need strain to gain strength and resilience.
Training should not just focus on one position or angle.
Low intensity durability is crucial for tendon health.
High intensity repeatability helps in sustaining performance under strain.
The bigger the base of connective tissue strength, the higher the peak performance.
Innovative training methods can help address specific tendon issues effectively. Endurance athletes experience significant tendon strain but manage it effectively.
Connective tissue behavior is crucial for injury prevention.
Genetics play a role in tendon health and injury susceptibility.
Assessing connective tissue is essential for understanding injury risk.
Training should focus on restoring normal connective tissue architecture.
Manipulating load, length, and time is key to adaptation.
Static training is often overlooked in favor of dynamic work.
Integrating multiple training qualities is necessary for performance.
Understanding adaptations is more important than just knowing exercises.
Progressive overload is essential for long-term connective tissue health.
