More animal research demonstrates the presence of local cellular tissue responses and signs of injury and inflammation in the uninvolved/unaffected limb 5 which indicate involvement of central neuronal mechanisms that, by extension, may modulate motor control.

The observation that unilaterally exercise-induced tendinopathy evokes bilateral tendon pathology indicates the involvement of centrally mediated processes. biological changes associated with the pathogenesis of tendinopathy, in the exercised as well as non-exercised tendons of rat forelimbs after subjecting rats to chronic repetitive reaching (voluntary forelimb repetitive reaching and grasping tasks) 4. Researchers observed bilateral signs of injury and inflammation, i.e. TNT appreciates important and ambiguous findings relating to the intricate changes in motor control due to tendinopathy. do not induce changes to the motor cortex 2,3 which may be another important factor to consider. However, due to the self-paced nature of the exercises, these programs do not address muscle drive, i.e. These programs are usually self-paced resistance trainings consisting of eccentric exercises, isometric exercises, a combination or traditional heavy slow resistance training with guidance of repetitions, sets and load (graded activity). Current clinical rehabilitative approaches primarily focus on building strength of the local damaged tissue (improvement of muscle architecture) and promote tendon mechanical properties such as the matrix. TNT addresses the potential benefits of restoring ‘corticospinal control of the muscle-tendon complex(s)’ or muscle drive, which is currently missing in typical tendon rehabilitation protocols. the primary motor cortex, corticospinal excitability and motor control, i.e. TNT combines knowledge from traditional tendon rehabilitation loading protocols and the neuroplastic effects following both strength training and the pathogenesis of tendinopathy on e.g. As such, alterations to the corticospinal control of the muscle must be taken into consideration when designing appropriate tendinopathy rehabilitation programs. Altered motor control, or motor performance, most likely a protective strategy to decrease pain or increase performance, could theoretically negatively influence tendon load and perpetuate nociceptive input. Chronic pain is associated with corticospinal and neuromuscular adaptations. Persistent or chronic pain is a major hallmark of tendinopathy. The concept of TNT was first described in treating patients with patellar tendinopathy by Rio and colleagues 1. TNT considers motor control changes to be an important factor in aberrant tendon load. perpetual pain experienced by patients with tendinopathy. Tendon neuroplastic training (TNT) as a novel tendinopathy rehabilitation protocol is based on the premise that neural changes may precipitate the characteristic chronic, i.e. Thank you.Metronome-paced rehabilitation for tendinopathy For more information, please follow us at Remember, keep it simple but intense. Again, I'm Alisa Adams, Owner of Art Fitness in Wilmington, Delaware and we just talked about what is a side tick-tock exercise. Engage your core and do two sets of 15 to 18. Also, keep your chest up and your back straight.

Do not allow knees to go in front of ankles against your squat. As you come back up, lift one leg out to the side. Your weight is pushing through your heels. Keep your chest up and avoid folding torso to knees. Keep your toes pointed forward, sit back as if you're in a chair. Again, using your resistance band, you're going to stand on your band with both feet, shoulder width apart. Another good exercise is tick-tock squat. Continue alternating legs for one minute to complete one set. Return to start and repeat in the opposite leg. Lift your right leg out to the side, pulling handles towards shoulders. Place your right handle in your left hand and your left handle in your right hand. Stand on your resistance band with both feet. One good exercise that incorporates tick-tock is tick-tock with upright row. It is actually an exercise that works your core. Right now, we're going to talk about what is a tick-tock exercise.
