How do tendons take a beating? - 5:19 --> Often injuries and discomfort that is thought of as the "joint" are ACTUALLY the tendon flare ups and inflammation of the tendon. We break down real life examples of this.
How do we strengthen them? - 9:05 --> Training for tendons looks just a LITTLE bit different than traditional strength training. How should we approach tendon training and rehab, depending on types of inflamed tendon.
How do you know what approach to take? - 13:39 --> With different types, there are different approaches necessary for rehab. We break down how to approach these, and deliver our surprisingly fresh take in your approach to training these tendons.
