Torn Tendon😃

... Read moreA torn tendon can be a serious injury, affecting mobility and quality of life. Tendons connect muscles to bones, allowing for movement, and when they’re damaged, it can lead to pain and limited function. Common causes of tendon tears include acute injuries, chronic wear and tear, and overuse during activities like snowboarding or sports. Individuals might notice swelling, bruising, and intense pain at the injury site. Recovery from a torn tendon typically involves rest, ice application, and seeking medical advice. Physical therapy is crucial for rehabilitation, aiming to restore strength and flexibility. Depending on the severity, surgical intervention may be necessary. It's essential to follow a proper recovery plan to prevent re-injury. Incorporating gentle strengthening exercises and stretches, as advised by a professional, can help in safely returning to normal activities. Understanding symptoms and adhering to medical guidance can significantly improve healing outcomes.

Your tendons don’t care how much you squat — they care how you move. Tendons adapt slowly, resist change, and hate ego lifting. If you’re skipping: • slow eccentrics • isometric holds • full range loaded movements —you’re building muscles with no scaffolding. Strength that last

Training with pain isn’t reckless.
Training without a progression plan is. Whether it’s a shoulder, elbow, or knee tendon, most people get stuck between resting too much or pushing through pain. I break down how to keep strength training with tendinopathy and how to transition back to normal training in my latest Substack.
