Tendinous tissue properties after short and long-term functional overload: Differences between controls, 12 weeks and 4 years of resistance training.

AIM: The potential for tendinous tissues to adapt to functional overload, especially after several years of exposure to heavy resistance training is largely unexplored. This study compared the morphological and mechanical characteristics of the patellar tendon and knee-extensor tendon-aponeurosis co...
