The Relationship Between Load and Pain in Athletes

When you say calf dysfunction, that's what you're talking about is the limited dorsiflexion. No, I'm talking about weakness in the calf. So we can see athletes where there's frank wasting of the calf and this is another good discriminatory examination from a clinical perspective between patellar femoral pain and patellar tendon pain. You don't tend to see quite as much profound muscle wasting in patellar Femoral pain as you do in patella tendon.
