achillestendinopathy

**Free Graded Rehab Running Program Below**

 In this episode of the podcast, we take a deep dive into the management of Achilles Tendinopathies. The Achilles tendinopathy has to be one of the most common diagnoses in running & field sports alike. Many go entire seasons without ever fully getting over it, only to carry it over into the next year.

We explore different methods and training structures that have worked with my own clients and what the research recommends to date.

We discuss the use of ultrasound, shockwave therapy, insoles and foam rolling to see whether they are effective in the treatment or not. We also dive into different strengthening methods you can use to help get rid of it and keep it away.

If you or someone you know has been having trouble with this injury, definitely give this one a listen.

In this episode of the podcast we look at a different approach to rehabbing a tendinopathy. It can be awkward at the best of times to try and get these issues right as there are so many factors at play.

Many people may have struggled with Achilles issues, patellar tendon issues, hamstring or even rotator cuff tendinopathies. We detail an approach we've used successfully with multiple clients over the years. 

The goal of this podcast is to try and breakdown a rehab concept to give you a better understanding of it's applicability.

We discuss loading strategies, exercise selection & training cycles.
