As a runner tendon pain or tendinopathy can totally detail a race prep, ruin our running progress and leave us watching on the sidelines whilst our injury free friends and competition power on.
In any sport, injury is part and parcel, I believe set back give us opportunity to learn, grow and come back stronger. Whilst we can still approach injury with this curious mindset, knowing the basic principals around tendon pathophysiology, risk reduction and rehab can be totally life changing!
There's quite a few simple things we can implement into our daily and weekly running routine to run smarter, reduce our injury risk and over be a stronger performing runner.
This ep covers all things you need to know about tendons! What they are, why you should care about them as a runner and what to do if you think you have tendon pain. I cover basic rehab principals, run through some gym based exercise examples and things to pay attention to pre, intra and post run to assess your source of pain and potential stage of tendinopathy.
