B.
With tendinosis, what is the soreness rule?
Soreness begins after 8-12 hours of exercise and can last up to 24-48 hours
With tendinosis, ________ therapy can restore accessory motion as needed
manual
What should be the primary goal for tendinosis with MET?
proliferating the tendon and possible spinal stabilization (if regional interdependence)
With tendinosis, you should implement MET after any ________ settles and for ALL _______ changes in the tendon (including tears)
acuity; structural
Which of the following are the ideal and ultimate sets, repetitions, and loads to improve a tendinosis condition?
A. 2-3 sets of 10-15 repetitions with heavy loads
B. 2-3 sets of 20-25 repetitions with heavy loadS
C. 2-3 sets of 10-15 repetitions with moderate loads
D. 1-2 sets of 10-15 repetitions with moderate loads
A.
For tendinosis, ________ eccentrics are encouraged
slower
Isometric loading without compression from lengthening, the isometrics are in a ___________ position
shortened
Isotonic loading without compression from lengthening, the isotonics from __________ into shortened position
neutral
Isotonic loading with compression from lengthening, isotonics loading from a __________ position
lengthened
What are examples of isometric loading in weight bearing?
UE weight shifting, planks, push ups
What are examples of plyometric loading?
ball bounces, tosses, and throwing
With tendinosis, activity response can have a ______ to _______ increase in P! (possibly 5/10)
mild; moderate
What is the time frame for MET with tendinosis?
8-12 week program
What are some precautions with heavy loads for MET and tendinosis?
deconditioned population
young people (growth plates)
What could complicate the healing response for tendinosis?
obesity- excessive fat absorbs inflammatory cells way from the tendon
diabetes- excessive glucose impairs collagen production and remodeling
low grade and persistent inflammation- associated with SAD diet and systemic disease/ limits proliferation and remodeling
MD Rx: Cortisone injections are a _____-_____ benefit

MD Rx: Glycerin trinitrate patches effective by increasing ___________
circulation
