The Key to Building Strong Tendons (Full Body): kzread.info/dash/bejne/a6GDzrBynKfNj7g.html

Traditional Martial Arts do a lot of this kind of training (isometrics and slow movements). That's because, in high velocity and force (power movements) the tendon don't actually do a lot in the contraction, but the antagonist muscle's tendon receives a great amount of tension in order to stop the movement before the articulation just breaks of.

@@f6nd in sports like martial arts, the tendon of for example the front part of the wrist may not be working too much in a certain movement, but the tendon of the back part will be working at slowing down the muscles so you dont get injured

​@@f6ndits like trowing a ball. People got injured alot in the shoulder because the muscle responsible for stopping the arm is in most cause undertrained. Resulting in tendon injuryin the shoulder

This might be why ISOMETRICS ARE THE WONDER WEAPON OF STRENGTH BUILDING ACCORDING TO OLD SCHOOL WEIGHTLIFTERS (see Bob Hofmans' power rack back in the 50s and Paul Anderson's heavy supports etc.), as strength is given more by tendons and connective tissue.

Interesting that your video popped up over there on the right side of my screen 🙄 When I turned 70 beginning of the year & COMPLETELY out of shape I started lifting weights. 3 days a week upper, legs, different uppers. One of the exercises I added was wrist curls to build that strength. BUT watching another geezer workout video a week ago I added a farmers carry as a warmup to my routines. Built up to 35 pound dumbbells so far I do a fast lap around the gym. Certainly works on my grip gets blood flowing and improves balance as well. Thoughts?

These are good tips my friend. Dealing with injured athletes in this area, the next important step for wrist/hand issues, I believe, is to teach them how to integrate the fascia/connective tissue and muscle upstream. Involve more of their upper arm, pecs, lats, etc. to help distribute, load and absorb forces more evenly across the system as opposed to the local tendon where the injuries keep occurring. Keep up the good work!

I like your videos!thanks for sharing! All the best from Belgium

Great Work!

Great content thank you 👍

Wow brilliant video! There's not many here on KZread that understand you need to have a high load to actually engage the damaged part of the tendon. I have a couple questions: are isometrics truly better than slow eccentrics for tendon strength? Does the research support this? And does this apply to ligaments as well? I have a damaged central TFCC in my wrist (aka torn ligament) and I can't find much research on how to strengthen ligaments. Thanks a million

great!

AYOOOOO THIS IS THE ONE I WANTED

Thank you for this! Would you suggest that I do super high light reps first to get blood flow into the area and then do this static holds once im warm?

Fat Gripz baby they’re cheap and awesome. Come in different sizes too. I use the big blue ones

Good stuff, thank you for sharing! Do you know if there is a similar training that would develop tendon strength and/or rehab the tendons in the elbow for pitching in baseball? I’ve noticed that tendon injuries are on the rise for professional MLB pitchers and it seems like there must be some sort of training to help “bullet proof” their tendons.

i have 4 wrist injury in my history 5 year of training, but the most painful one has got to be the Skieers thumb, oh my god it took me 2 years to recover from it. I also injured my ulnar and my dorsal as well. i also born with a hypermobile joint so i think im very susceptible to injuries on my joint. At this point i am so tired of wrist injury and decided to train armwrestling, i focus a lot on doing wrist curl, rising curl with belt, pronation curl, reverse wrist curl and a bunch of heavy isometric for my wrist. I am now injury free because of it. I hope people would focus training their wrist like they train their biceps/triceps

Thanks for the video, it was very informative! I'm actually rehabbing a m8nor wrist injury myself. Question though, would the same principles apply to overcoming isometrics as well as the yielding isometrics that you described? Thanks!

Will the same techniques work for office workers?

Are these recommended if there is already a bit of wrist pain present?

One of the known brands is called " Fat Gripz"

Can this be done with resistance bands?

I had one doubt, can i focus both sprinting and zone 2 training regularly

When I'm lifting and doing calisthenics my forearms usually get pretty stiff and sore from all the heavy load. Will this help with that? Regardless it all seems like really good advice.

Can you see tendon damage on ultrasound scan?

So I’m in PT for a bicep tendon issue that has persisted for about 7years now. I’ve gotten a lot weaker in that time. I’m getting strength back but pain is still there if I do pt daily. Should I add these in with the pt? Or would that be to much?

What about Yin Yoga way? It is said that its meant mostly to work with ur tendons etc.

What about dead hangs? Would using body weight help increase tendon strength?

Maybe a little bit for grip strength. The real benefit to that though is the modifying the tension relationships between muscle groups in the shoulder. Ex: facilitating relaxation in levator scapulae, lats, and rhomboids to help serratus, low traps, etc. better upwardly rotate the scap and create more space in the subacromial space.

i have a question: lots of people say that a very fast runner is faster than the others because he has very good tendons. But i don’t think it is just because he does all this type of training (heavy/ slow). So the question is: If to achieve tendon strength you have to train heavy and slowly, why don’t faster athletes use this type of training but still go fast? This could be genetics but i wanna understand a little better

@TheMovementSystem

Actually that has more to do with length of tendons. Often elite sprinters have very high calf muscles and longer achilles tendons allowing for more energy to be stored during the fast stretch of sprinting. That's anthropometrics which is different than what you get from training (collagen synthesis).

Viscoelastic Creep sounds like a at least semi-sophisticated insult to me.

Tennis elbow can benefit from isometrics, especially to reduce pain. But for long-term tendon repair, use progressive isotonic (full contractions) loading with slow loads, about 7 reps to failure. Couple sets. 3x a week. If the pain is worse the next day, lower the intensity.
