138. How to treat patellar & achilles tendinopathy with Daniel Silvan

Physio Edge podcast with David Pope

NOTE

**Knee extension and then perhaps Spanish Squat for patellar tendinopathy. **

Just going a little bit deeper and then you will load like double in your tendon./nIf you feel it's okay, then go back with your trunk./nAnd if we've done all those things, then we can start including some weight./nAnd if the weight is comfortable here, then let's put it here./nWithin the same exercise, you have a lot of variations without moving too much, which I think, again, it has one education part is the athlete himself can see that just a day he couldn't even do 30 degrees./nAnd today he's at 90 comfortable. So he feels okay, we are progressing./nWhile if you change exercise, if you did this one yesterday and do a new one today. Okay, they feel better, but they don't know if it's because of the exercise or because of other reasons./nHow do you choose that initial position? Again, you said you mentioned 30 compared to 90. Is it because they're actually not able to hold it at a position of 90 degrees as opposed to 30 or because they feel that more in the tendon at 30 degrees rather than 90./nWhat's your starting position choice based on? I think it depends on the clearly on the athlete tolerance.
