Takeaways
Christian Coupe is a physical therapist and researcher.
He has worked extensively with elite athletes, particularly in racket sports.
Tendon issues like jumpers knee and Achilles tendinopathy are common in athletes.
Eccentric training was a breakthrough in tendon rehabilitation.
Heavy slow resistance training may be more effective than eccentric training.
Tendons require regular loading to maintain health and prevent degradation.
Aging begins around the age of 17, affecting tendon structure and function.
Immobility can lead to rapid deterioration of tendon health.
Tendon stiffness is crucial for performance and injury prevention.
There is potential for improving tendon health even in older individuals. The Achilles tendon may require different loading than the patellar tendon.
Cross-links in tendons can affect stiffness and brittleness.
Exercise is crucial for maintaining tendon health and properties.
Dietary choices can influence tendon integrity and health.
Metabolic syndrome is linked to tendon issues and injuries.
Advanced glycation end products accumulate in low turnover tissues like tendons.
Tendon size can increase due to vascularization in tendinopathy.
Inflammation may be present in early stages of tendon pain.
Circadian rhythms could play a role in tendon recovery processes.
Future research should focus on the metabolic aspects of tendon health.
