Quadriceps Tendon Pain: What to AVOID in Rehab

If you have nagging pain just above your kneecap, you're likely dealing with quadriceps tendinopathy, and if you're trying to treat it like patellar tendinopathy, that's not the most effective approach. The quadriceps tendon requires a distinct loading strategy to be specifically targeted. Compared to the patellar tendon, the quadriceps tendon is loaded into more knee flexion. So, tailoring the rehab exercises to load into deeper knee flexion will help to strengthen the quadriceps tendon. ------------------- 🛑 DON'T FORGET CLICK SUBSCRIBE! 🛑 ------------------- Follow me on social and say hello! 👋 ➡️ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/michaelbraccio/ ➡️ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@michaelbraccio?lang=en ------------------- Who am I? 🤔 I'm a chiropractor interested in rehabilitation, tendinopathy, and chronic pain.
