@jlatt.fit: Here’s how I fixed my Achilles pain ⬇️ I leaned that you need to load the Achilles gradually for it to heal (which sounds counter intuitive I know) but you gotta use it or you loose it … Once you are pain free day to day then start the loading process with a mix of isometrics and body weight movements in the early stages. After 1-2 weeks start to load the calves and tendon with some double & single leg calf raises, working in the 8-10 rep range and building up the weight over time. The Achilles adapts quite quickly so make sure to increase the load over time to keep the tendon stimulated. Eventually work towards doing really hard isometric single leg with short hard burst of load. Patience & consistency with the Achilles will be your friend. Don’t be afraid to really load the tendon with weight (ofc as long as you are pain free). Any other things that have worked for ya drop them in the comments and someone might benefit from it!! Happy running :) #Running #londonrunning #runningtips #achillestendonitis
