Blood Flow Restriction Training To Improve Aerobic Capacity In Elite High School Runner
มุมมอง 1.1K5 ปีที่แล้ว
Nick is a distance runner, but in his senior season at Huntsville High School he was struggling with knee pain. He came to PhysioWorks and we were able to help reduce his pain, but he had lost some aerobic capacity having not been able to train as much or as intensely. We used blood flow restriction training (BFR) using a principle called ischemic preconditioning (IPC) to help rebuild his aerob...

Tendon compression

No all tendon pain is equal! Some tendons where they attach to the bone can experience compression. It is debated how much we need to reduce this compression in rehab, but I think it should be considered depending how the patient responds in testing
When is Carpal Tunnel Not Carpal Tunnel?

There is often the assumption that numbness in the hand is due to carpal tunnel syndrome. However, oftentimes these symptoms can be coming from the neck.

    I reside in Canada and it has been 2 years I am suffering from all these pain. The terrible orthopedic doctor has not been able yet to discover what really the problem is in my hand. no diagnose, all false may be this and maybe that and finally no treatment. I am 42 year old female and very active always, mentally and physically. I use computer a lot, for work and study so I type a lot. and I exercise as well, I take supplements regularly and I am on intermittent fasting. So overall, I am well health conscious, but I am not a doctor to treat my own physical health!!

    I’ve strained my upper right soleus several times the last five years. As an older runner this has been very difficult to treat with PT. It always feels great on longer easy runs. But when I do tempo or hills after a few sessions the injury comes back. The scar tissue is hidden by the two gastroc muscles. So my goal is to really focus on strengthening specifically the soleus

    Great synopsis of recent understanding. I am a double hip replacement person (was very active) - one good result, one lingering dysfunction with tendinopathy, and getting to the sweet spot of training and rest without further damage is very difficult (even @ 24 months post op). Improved blood flow through gentle cardio exercise, isometric and steady eccentric loading, and only a little heavy loading slowly increasing has been the formulae for me. Subjective assessment rather than professional physiological judgement has also been important: 'feel what's right for your own body' after initial professional guidance, and alter the training by trial and error, rather than over-accumulate loading or sliding into lazy resting. (there - that's my minor contribution) Thanks again.

    1. If tendon hypertrophy or inflammation were the main drivers of CTS, then symptoms would be more consistent over 24 hours, which they are not. The overwhelming majority of CTS have neuro symptoms and pain worse during sleep hours. Why so? Because interstitial fluid during awake hours tends to shift to the lower limbs. During sleep hours, that fluid tends to redistribute especially into the upper limbs. The increased fluid in the carpal tunnel puts mechanical pressure on the median nerve. If one gets up from bed and walks around for 15mins+, the symptoms will ease. Conservative approaches to CTS that physical therapists are typically not taught : - reduce salt intake to reduce excessive ISF. - aim for healthy bodyfat %. excess fat is deposited within the carpal tunnel and its contents ectopically. - avoid pro-inflammatory foods and drinks. inflammation for such contributes to fluid retention and swelling. - trial a daily 1000 Calorie deficit for a week. This will reduce immunoreactivity to various foods and emotional states. - do myofascial release along the entire forearm flexor compartment, and the whole path of the median nerve including the palm and fingers. Often there are impingements and adhesions to the median nerve that compromise blood perfusion into and out of the nerve and its sheath. - do peripheral nerve sliders to facilitate unimpeded nerve movement. - do distal RUJ, RCJ, intercarpal and inter-metacarpal mobes. These can add some compliance to the carpal tunnel, and thereby reduce sensitivity to elevated ISF ingress. 2. Having Cx radiculopathy or neuropathy will not give a positive Tinel's or Phalen's. You can prove this to yourself by doing these two tests on all your Cx pathology patients. It is possible to have CTS and Cx pathology concurrently.

I also do a lot of phiso studies pertaining to my personal training and I think a lot of people get these nerve issues in many spots and don't realize they can alleviate the pain with therapy. EVERYONE things they just go take their fat asses to the doctor and have them fix their problems with pills or surgery. When understanding their own bodies and simple treatments would improve their pain instantly and eventually go away completely. I am not saying don't go to a doctor, but maybe try something first. Its all connected. Yea yea.. wall of text.

    How do you know if your tendon has become degenerative or if it is still capable of full rehabilitation? I've experienced weakness, lack of full range of motion under load, and occasional passive pain in the distal bicep area of my left arm for almost a year and have tried longterm resting, stretching, massaging, and light work (eccentric, isometric, etc.) off and on during that time, with very little progress. Sadly, this has come to seem like an unsolvable problem.

    • @michaelconway8352
      @michaelconway8352 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      From my personal experience ( cyclist) I've learnt to listen to my knee 24 hrs after exercise. If the pain has settled to 0 then I know I've done just enough exercise to recover. I became quiet frustrated over a 4 month period of daily pain above 10% ( maybe 4/10 pain) but the problem has lasted a year on and off. So ... over the last 4 weeks I haven't rode at all. This is what I did... Week 1 : Spanish Squats : eccentric contractions 5 x 45 sec holds, 3 times per day, using a thick resistance band tied around stair bannister.No other exercise other than gentle outdoor walks Week 2: Same routine but added single leg Bulgarian split squats using one leg on chair. 3 x 15 reps twice per day. Body weight only. Week 3 and Week 4: As weeks 1 & 2 but went to gym and added single leg leg press, single leg leg extns and hamstring curls and seated calf raises. Also light resistance spinning on static exercise bike. Added weight resistance gradually on machines. If the pain had settled the next day, I was ready to add more weight. I found my tendon to be pain free after each gym session but that was probably because it was warmed up. If there was a nagging pain next day, I took 24 hrs off because I had done too much and eased off next session. Sadly here in the UK we are in COVID lockdown and gyms are now closed. But I went out on bike yesterday for 1st time and rode easy paced 15miles on flat terrain.. No pain. So my answer would be (personal experience only) spend a week or two easing back on your patellar load so that you recover with less than 10% pain after each run. Then introduce gradual load increases to the patellar over a few weeks. I stretch quads a lot as well and work on ankle, hip and hamstring flexibility and glute strength. Sorry for the long winded reply but we are talking weeks of gradual recovery.
