Patellar tendinitis

Patellar tendinitis 


https://youtu.be/bvryJd1FqyQ


  • Cross friction massage
  • Patellar mobilization/stretches
  • Prone quad stretching 
  • Standing quad stretching 
  • Straight leg raises
  • glute bridges
  • wall sits
  • Box squats
  • Reverse lunge


Biomechanics:

  • Go slow - faster you go, more load is transferred to the tendon.
  • Keep knee behind the toes over the ankle
  • Load the muscles not the tendon
