Achilles tendon biomechanics in response to acute intense exercise

Achilles tendon biomechanics in response to acute intense exercise Joseph, Michael F PT, PhD; Lillie, Kurtis R DPT, CSCS; Bergeron, Daniel J DPT; Cota, Kevin DPT; Yoon, Joseph DPT; Kraemer, William J PhD, FACSM, FNSCA; Denegar, Craig R PhD, PT, ATC, FNATA Journal of Strength & Conditioning Research: 18 February 2014 Quote: Achilles tendinopathy is a common disorder and is more prevalent in men. Although differences in tendon mechanics between men and women have been reported, understanding of tendon mechanics in young active people is limited. Moreover, there is limited understanding of changes in tendon mechanics in response to acute exercise.
