This study compares the effect of a therapeutic physical exercise programme based on an individualized control of the exercise dose by monitoring the force-speed curves against the current best practice in the treatment of tendinopathies of the lower limb. Half of the participants will receive the experimental intervention, while the other half will receive the best current practice.
The current best practice is based on a progressive strength training sustained in the continuous model of tendinopathy proposed by Cook and Purdam (Cook & Purdam, 2009), showing in the literature this methodology more effective than the wait and see approach or that the use of corticosteroid injections, accentuating the differences in long-term follow-up evaluations (Mellor et al., 2018). However, the current system lacks an objectification methodology for the severity of the pathology and objective criteria for the progression of the load, usually based on subjective feelings of discomfort or pre-established intensities.
Therefore, the investigators hypothesize that the development and introduction of a methodology for the quantification and progression of the loads, with an individual control and management of the exercise dose, as well as the execution of specific exercises for each one of them, could improve the clinica and functional results. Moreover, achieving neuromuscular adaptations based on the characteristics of the neuromuscular system, could improve the times and results of the intervention, as well as the rate of treatment failures, in the tendinopathies of the lower limbs.
