When there is a reduction in joint capacity, i.e. amount of useable range of motion, movement exploration becomes confined and variability in movement is restricted. Continually using the same confined range of motion leads to the same tissues becoming repetitively overloaded. Acute and chronic overloading of tendinous tissue can lead to tendon pathology – TENDINOPATHY. […]

“Cells live in a manifold existence. They are both complex biochemical information processing entities and mechanical objects that live within mechanically active environments. As our knowledge of the molecular mechanisms underlying mechanosensation and mechanotransduction improves, these mechanical and biochemical realities appear increasingly intertwined.” …. In therapy and training, an essential parameter we manipulate to induce

“How do you program mobility training and rehab? How many reps and sets? Frequency? Intensity? How do you program FRC mobility training within a standard strength and conditioning program?” The answer? “It depends.” However, this answer does not provide us with any useful information to apply to our practices. So, I will follow this question
