I have had tendinopathy in the patellar tendon for 2 months and I have been doing isometrics and low resistance exercises for 1 month. and the pain continues, not with the same intensity as the beginning but my tendon still hurts. and the main question is can I return to sports now or do I have to wait until it doesn't hurt completely? (My sport is basketball)
Hey! Glad to hear that you are making progress! To answer your question- typically it’s best to limit the amount of high impact activity… as much as possible. (Which includes running and jumping)… now with return to sport, there’s a balance- if you really want to get back and play ASAP, just know that there’s a trade-off and it may take a little longer to get better! There’s also many other factors at play- including severity of injury, etc. Hope that helps! Feel free to shoot me a DM as well
I started doing this for last couple of days. Started with 30 sec on first day at 45 seconds now. Back too hurts a bit. Hope my left knee get better soon. Any suggestions how many times a day we can do this?
It depends… it does put “good stress” on the muscles and knee joints to help them become stronger…. But use pain as your guide. If it’s too much, you may want to stick to some lower impact exercises to start with!
Great question. Two tips: 1.) put a box under you if you need to sit 2.) If it’s too painful, this might not be the best drill for you! Best to get it checked out by your doctor or PT first
That's ok ! You may need an more gentle exercise before you start this one! Check out the glute bridges or Ankle weight seated knee extensions instead!
At work I can do these for 30 minutes nonstop. This was helpful. Thx
Glad to hear!!

What should be the duration of the wall sit? How many reps? How many times a day?
Start slow and see how you feel with it. I usually recommend 3 sets of 30”, with 30” rest in between. But as you get better… go longer!

If the back hurts- it’s possible that there might be something else going on…. best to get that checked out first!
@@StrengthandSport back hurts while doing this. Nevertheless shall get it checked soon.

Does this not put any stress/strain on the knee? I have early chondral loss on the knee and my patella is often painful

It's easy to get this position but very difficult to come out of it. Really scary and hurts like hell.

Is it necessary to warm up the muscles before this practice, if so then what is recommended?
Yes- I would recommend walking or biking for 5 min to get things warmed up
I must be bad off....I can't do this comfortably at all. Yikes!
