The 1 year + study is also accepted - will share soon as this paper really drives our knowledge forward regarding tendon remodelling in the longterm!
Super stoked to see another of Sam's @SBP_Physio PhD papers get published. cracking work.

Great research from Tjerk Visser & colleagues has given us normative values for calf testing that go beyond reps alone!
Assessing peak height, total work & total displacement can provide valuable insight into calf function.

It's recommended that we load at ≥70% of 1 Rep Max during rehab but what does this translate to in terms of reps to fatigue? Nuzzo et al. (2024) suggests 70% of 1RM is ~15RM which is a good place to start with loading & can be progressed towards 6RM (& heavier) as symptoms allow

Why Menopause Matters in Physio 🦴💪🧠
Midlife MSK pain? It’s not always ageing.
Hormonal changes are often missed—leading to poor outcomes.
It’s time to talk menopause in rehab.

Not just a quick fix: Athletes with patellar tendinopathy reported lasting improvements in pain and disability five years after exercise-based rehabilitation.
