With tendinopathy patients, the concensus is to use isometrics first, then heavy slow eccentrics. EQI's help bridge the gap between iso and eccentric. Choose a single limb exercise and get a submaximal weight. Hold an isometric contraction at mid range for 30 seconds, then slowly move into a eccentric contraction for 15 seconds for the rest of the range.

You should be at near failure at the end of the isometric so choose a weight that will get you there. 2 to 3 sets of 1 repetition is more than enough.

Deadlifts: Do you know the difference between a Traditional Deadlift and an RDL and why to choose one over the other?

Traditional Deadlifts
-Start from the ground and weight is lifted through full hip extension
-Typically performed with heavier weight and focuses on concentric muscle contraction
-Used to build more overall muscle strength

RDL
-Starts with weight held at the top of range in full hip extension and lowered part way to the ground
-Typically performed with lighter weights and a focus on the eccentric muscle contraction of the hamstrings
-Beneficial to be programmed for individuals who are involved in sports that involve high-speed running, sudden acceleration/deceleration or quick direction changes

Rest isn’t always the answer...sometimes you can use variations to ensure you’re able to keep training!

Try the no-feet variation where you assume the squat position without jumping out to help reduce some of the forces your body has to handle.

Warm take: We need to give the stiff legged deadlift more love when teaching or learning how to hip hinge compared to the commonly prescribed romanian deadlift.

Since you are starting from the floor (bottom up) vs. top down like in an RDL, you already build tension in your posterior chain before adding any external load. This can feel like a safer entry point for people with lower back pain as we can make sure we feel engagement in your larger hip muscles before adding external load to the system.

There are a few different variations you can try. For someone not as flexible, you can have them perform it off blocks. For someone with adequate mobility, try performing it from a deficit. For a unilateral focus, you can do a kickstand version.

Do you warm-up before a run? Here are some reasons you should make sure to include a warm-up with each run!

1. Increased blood circulation and muscle temperature 🩸💪🏾🔥
2. Activation of the Nervous System 🧠
3. Improved Performance 🏃🏾‍♀️💨
4. Injury Reduction 🛑🤕

Warm-up intensity and duration should match your planned run but you should aim to do some form of warm-up before every run. This will help to prepare you to perform your best, reduce risk of injury and support long-term running health!

How do you actually protect your joints? By gradually increasing the amount of stress your body can safely handle — in lots of different movement patterns. Joint protection isn’t about avoiding stressful positions — it’s about training your body to handle them with strength and confidence. 💪

Valentine’s Day isn’t just about loving someone else.

It’s also a reminder to be gentle with yourself...especially when your body is healing.

Progress might feel slow. Some days will test your patience.
But every small effort counts. Every step forward matters.

Your body is doing its job. It’s working for you, not against you.
So today, choose kindness.

Healing takes time and you’re right where you need to be. ❤️
