    Isometric holds with 48 hrs rest between sessions was the only way Ive been able to start to heal my really really bad wrist flexor tendinopathy. (I used to wrist curl 50kg, was reduced to only 3kg with bad pain for months). Now I'm finally at 10kg holds

      What is your regimen? 3 sets of 30 second holds every 48 hours? Have you also tried every 24 hours? Or did you find that too much?

      @@vadesnow3675 From my research so far, it seems as if your tendons will let you know 24 hours or so later if it's aggravated or not. For me personally, I will know the next day. 48 hours could be that sweet spot for this individual, and in my opinion sounds like a good rest zone.
      In my own personal recovery, I like to do 2x a week, to ensure 72 hours or more. You will have to do trial and error, and I greatly suggest writing it all down, as if you are writing a log book for gym progress.

    There is something about the isometric load that is somehow better than isotonic. I use to be in excruciating insertional Achille tendon pain for years. After driving a manual car for a few months where at intersection, i would press the clutch and hold it in until the light turned green, that cured my Achille tendon 70 to 80% where i can walk without limping. Btw, this wasn't intended as a rehab, a simple habit rehabbed my Achille tendon.

    For those of you who was very sedentary (like me sitting at home coding and playing games) and then went to the gym and started doing stupid things (with high weight and many sets) and got tendinopathy, then 45 seconds x 5 sets x 3 times per day may be too much for your very reactive (untrained) tendons.
    It's better to start slowly. For example 2 sets x 20 seconds (once a day) and monitor your resting pain level after 24 hours, if it is ok, then do 2 sets x 20 seconds again and wait for next day. If your pain level is below than 4/10, then you can add 10 seconds for each set, so next day do 3 x 30 seconds and monitor your pain. Add 1 more set if the pain is ok, so 4 x 30 seconds. Then 5 x 30 seconds, then 5 x 40 seconds, then 5 x 40 seconds in the morning and 2 x 40 seconds in the evening.
    It takes some time to gradually build tendon capacity from 2 x 20 seconds (once a day) to 5 x 40 seconds (twice a day). 2-3 weeks maybe.
    But if you are a runner or athlete and you were well trained before you got the tendinopathy, then you can start more aggressive like 5 x 45 seconds and it will be ok for your tendons.

      @@wskeal86 Intensity is King! The load sounds too high, not the time of exercise.
      All things are scalable, but longer isometrics (30-45s) elongate tendons and move more synovial fluid, hence why 25s may not be as ideal.

    I am currently dealing with an issue with my right distal bicep tendon, it has been sore for the past two months. My physiotherapist directed me towards stretches and light eccentric bicep curls. I have overdone these - and had a few set backs. My fault. The last two days I attempted and conducted isometric exercise - 45lbs barbell on a power rack allowing a 90 degree at elbow, forearm, and upper arm. The pain has disappeared in day three. I will continue to progress with set and time. Eventually work in eccentric exercise in the coming weeks.

    Great presentation. I would say though that if you just partially tore a tendon, there's no guarantee that you'll be able to do heavy loads or long holds or both even though isometrics seem to be magical. For example, you might only be able to do 2 sets of 10 second holds with 2 lbs after 1 week of rest after injuring your elbow (let's say, golfer elbow). Also, isometrics can cause pain during and after doing them (can be a sign that you did too much if too painful or a sign that it was fine if the pain is not much worse). So, be careful. Less is more. So if you're not sure, do less and less often at first.

    So happy to have found this, thank you.. Been struggling now as a Sprinter with high hamstring tendinopathy for the past 18 months.... I have rehabbed, done electric shock therapy, PRP ...almost come back and then irritate it again...
    I now finally have a Physio loading the iso's now, and we are introducing small plyo's now too. .. I need to check the holds and time though as this is important, as you say.. I am running again now at say 65% speed and its really hard to gauge when you can ramp it up and again how many times a week I load.
    Continual I take it, forgive me as I still have the last 10 minutes to listen to... Grateful someone understands :))))) Fascinating yet frustrating it all is!

    • @djmj1000
      @djmj1000 4 роки тому

      I played basketball and was always a very fast sprinter. Very similar to mine injury now 18 months and i also had a lot of negative MRI, PRP and also impingment test and spinal injection test. For me it started with adductor problems in season preperation and not enough rest before season started in combination with a sitting 10-14 hours a day for many months developing piriformis pain.
      Nothing helped and after some weeks of rest i felt good but it was always a "trap" once the load was a LITTLE to high trying a comeback or at normal daily activities i fell back for weeks. Sometimes the progress of 1-2 month was erased and it was the most desperate and depressing and painful phase i had. For the last 6 month i completely avoid sitting and uncontrolled load at hamstring and tendon.
      We must never make the mistake again coming back to early. Like a pro all load tests must be painfree before we go back since sprinting and basketball has very high tendon load. It is sad and i am not sure if i will ever come back or be that explosive.
      I tried a lot of exercises and watched hundres of hours physio videos but the only thing that helped me slow but steady were a lot of massages at the beginning and now isometrics i now do for some weeks like Purdam said:

      The reason for such overload inyuries are almost always compensation patterns. Basically one muscle region does not do it's job so the other must do it and gets inyured.

    @TransNeingerian 2 роки тому +3

    How is it not immediately obvious to use unmovable loads as opposed to heavily weighted loads?
    For example, instead of holding a heavy deadlift in an isometric hold, you could use an unloaded barbell and pull against the safety bars, preventing the bar from moving no matter how hard you pulled.
    The lag of sports research is glaringly apparent due to the researchers having close to no experience in the gym.
    Id trust a gym bro than a twig in glasses behind a microscope because the gym bro has tried things to compare. The twig conpares things on paper, but nobody can argue that the majority of things in life turn out to be different than they should have on paper.

      I guess the disadvantage of your suggestion as oppose to weighted is that its much harder to measure the intensity so you can't build a progression as meticulously. If you're weighting you can gradually progress increasing the weight each time incrementally but if your pulling its very hard to measure the level of that so each time could be different and its hard to build it up safely.
