9 Sept 202410:43

Summary

TLDRCette vidéo explique comment renforcer les tendons en évitant les erreurs courantes. L'astuce principale est de dépasser un seuil de 70 % de la contraction musculaire maximale pour stimuler la synthèse de collagène. L'orateur présente cinq exercices isométriques pour cibler différents tendons fréquemment blessés, comme le tendon d'Achille, le tendon rotulien, les ischio-jambiers, le biceps et les tendons extenseurs du coude. Chaque exercice est effectué en trois séries de 30 secondes, trois fois par semaine, pour des résultats optimaux sur une période de 4 à 8 semaines.

Takeaways

  • 💪 Pour renforcer la résistance des tendons, il est essentiel d'atteindre un seuil de charge correspondant à 70% de la contraction musculaire maximale.
  • 🏋️‍♂️ Choisissez des exercices et des positions qui permettent une forte contraction musculaire, au moins 70% de la force que le muscle peut produire.
  • ⏰ Pour chaque exercice, le protocole recommandé est de réaliser trois séries de 30 secondes avec une contraction musculaire isométrique difficile, suivie d'un repos de 90 secondes.
  • 🦿 L'exercice n°1 est l'élevage de la plante du pied d'une jambe, isométrique, qui est essentiel pour renforcer le tendon d'Achille.
  • 🏃‍♂️ Les sportifs et les coureurs devraient pratiquer cet exercice trois fois par semaine pour renforcer le tendon d'Achille.

Q & A

  • Quelles sont les erreurs courantes commises par les gens lorsqu'ils essaient de renforcer leurs tendons?

    -Les gens font souvent des exercices trop légers ou des étirements qui ne dépassent pas le seuil de charge nécessaire à l'amélioration de la force tendineuse. Cela ne stimule pas suffisamment les tendons.

  • Quel est le seuil de charge nécessaire pour renforcer les tendons?

    -Le seuil de charge est de 70 % de la force maximale de contraction musculaire. Les exercices doivent dépasser ce seuil pour être efficaces.

  • Comment appliquer ce seuil de 70 % dans les exercices?

    -Il faut choisir des exercices et des positions qui permettent une contraction musculaire forte, correspondant à au moins 70 % de la force que le muscle est capable de produire.

  • Quelle est la méthode recommandée pour renforcer les tendons avec des exercices isométriques?

    -Il est recommandé de faire trois séries de 30 secondes de contraction isométrique, avec une pause de 90 secondes entre chaque série. Cela permet un allongement progressif du tendon sous charge.

  • Quel est l'avantage des contractions isométriques pour les tendons?

    -Les contractions isométriques provoquent un allongement lent du tendon sous charge, stimulant ainsi la synthèse de collagène, ce qui aide à renforcer le tendon.

  • Pourquoi le soulèvement isométrique sur une jambe est-il recommandé pour renforcer le tendon d'Achille?

    -Cet exercice permet de mieux cibler le tendon d'Achille en générant une forte charge, ce qui est essentiel pour atteindre le seuil de 70 % et renforcer le tendon.

  • Quels sont les conseils pour effectuer correctement un soulèvement isométrique sur une jambe?

    -Il faut garder le genou droit, placer un pied sur une boîte pour stabiliser le corps et maintenir une posture haute avec une barre sur le dos, tout en gardant le talon légèrement levé.

  • Comment renforcer le tendon rotulien?

    -L'extension de jambe avec isométrie est un exercice efficace pour renforcer le tendon rotulien. Il consiste à bloquer l'appareil d'extension et à maintenir une forte contraction du quadriceps pendant 30 secondes.

  • Comment l'exercice du pont à levier long peut-il renforcer les tendons des ischio-jambiers?

    -Cet exercice cible les tendons proximaux des ischio-jambiers en positionnant les jambes dans un angle spécifique (135°), ce qui permet de solliciter davantage les tendons des ischio-jambiers.

  • Quels suppléments peuvent aider à renforcer les tendons?

    -Des suppléments comme la vitamine C et le collagène peuvent aider à la guérison et au renforcement des tendons, surtout s'ils sont pris régulièrement avec une alimentation riche en protéines.

Keywords

💡force

La force fait référence à la capacité d'un muscle à contracter et à produire de la puissance. Dans le contexte de la vidéo, il est important de choisir des exercices qui permettent de créer une forte contraction musculaire, d'au moins 70% de la force maximale que le muscle peut produire, pour renforcer les tendons. Par exemple, l'exercice de soulèvement de la plante du pied est discuté comme un moyen de stimuler suffisamment le tendon d'Achille pour le renforcer.

💡tendon

Les tendons sont des tissues conjonctifs qui relient les muscles aux os, permettant de transmettre la force musculaire pour créer des mouvements. La vidéo se concentre sur la façon de renforcer les tendons, en particulier en utilisant des exercices isométriques à charge élevée, pour améliorer leur résistance et leur force.

💡loading threshold

Le seuil de charge est un concept clé dans la vidéo qui détermine à quelle intensité il faut travailler pour augmenter la force des tendons. Il est mentionné que les exercices en dessous de ce seuil, qui est de 70% de la contraction musculaire maximale, ne contribuent pas à renforcer les tendons.

💡isometric contraction

Une contraction isométrique est un type de contraction musculaire où la force est appliquée sans que la longueur du muscle ne change. Dans la vidéo, il est recommandé d'utiliser des contractions isométriques pour renforcer les tendons, en maintenant une position avec une charge difficile pendant 30 secondes.

💡creep

Le terme 'creep' fait référence au phénomène où un muscle se raccourcit lentement pendant une contraction musculaire prolongée, entraînant un allongement progressif des tendons. Cette notion est utilisée dans la vidéo pour expliquer comment une contraction musculaire prolongée peut stimuler la synthèse du collagene dans les tendons, contribuant ainsi à leur renforcement.

💡Achilles tendon

Le tendon d'Achille est l'un des tendons les plus larges et les plus solides du corps humain, attaché au muscle gastrocnémius et au talon. Dans la vidéo, l'exercice de soulèvement de la plante du pied est discuté comme un moyen d'exercer et de renforcer ce tendon, en particulier pour les sportifs et les personnes âgées.

💡patellar tendon

Le tendon rotulien est un tendon crucial situé au genou, qui peut être sujet à des blessures, surtout chez les sportifs pratiquant des sports où il y a beaucoup de sauts et de squats. La vidéo explique comment un exercice spécifique, l'extension du genou, peut aider à renforcer ce tendon.

💡hamstring tendons

Les tendons ischiatiques sont des tendons qui attachent les muscles ischiatiques à l'os. Ils peuvent être endommagés lors de certaines activités sportives, comme le sprint ou le saut. La vidéo présente un exercice de ponte avec un levier long pour cibler et renforcer ces tendons.

💡supination

La supination est un mouvement qui implique la rotation de la paume de la main vers l'extérieur. Dans la vidéo, il est suggéré d'utiliser un objet long, comme un bâton de golf, pour effectuer un mouvement de supination pour renforcer les tendons extenseurs de l'avant-bras, souvent impliqués dans le tennis élbow.

💡vitamin C

La vitamine C est un nutrient essentiel pour la santé des tendons, car elle contribue à la production de collagene, un composant clé du tendon. La vidéo mentionne l'importance de l'assimilation de vitamine C, en particulier le matin, pour soutenir la guérison et la force des tendons.

Highlights

To build tendon strength, exercises must exceed a 70% loading threshold of maximum muscle contraction strength.

Light exercises and stretches below the loading threshold do not improve tendon strength.

Exercises above the threshold can effectively build tendon strength.

The general principle is to choose exercises that allow for strong muscle contractions at least 70% of the muscle's force.

Five recommended exercises for commonly injured tendons are discussed.

For each exercise, a protocol of three sets of 30 seconds is recommended with a challenging isometric contraction.

After each 30-second hold, a 90-second rest period is advised.

The concept of 'creep' is introduced, where a muscle shortens and the tendon lengthens under load, stimulating collagen synthesis.

Exercise one is a single leg calf raise isometric, crucial for a strong calf and Achilles tendon.

The calf raise should be performed with one foot on a box and a barbell on the back for stability and load.

Exercise two is a leg extension isometric, beneficial for athletes with patellar tendon pain.

The hamstring long lever bridge is exercise three, targeting the proximal hamstring tendons.

Exercise four is the open can isometric, specific for the bicep tendon and common shoulder injuries.

The last exercise targets the extensor tendons in the elbow, responsible for tennis elbow.

For tendon healing, in addition to exercise, adequate vitamin C, protein intake, and possibly a collagen supplement are recommended.

Irritable movements should be temporarily reduced during tendon healing.

Consistency in tendon-strengthening exercises three times a week for 4 to 8 weeks is crucial for optimal results.

play00:00

you know how to build muscle strength

play00:01

but how do you build tendon strength

play00:04

today we're going to expose some of the

play00:06

common mistakes that people make when

play00:08

trying to build tendon strength the real

play00:10

solution is almost too simple to believe

play00:12

yet almost no one does it right but

play00:15

first let me show you the proof that

play00:16

this method actually works across many

play00:18

studies we see that there's something

play00:20

called a loading threshold for truly

play00:22

building Tenon strength that means that

play00:25

light exercises stretches and other

play00:27

techniques below this threshold just

play00:30

don't improve Tenon strength exercises

play00:33

Above This threshold can build Tenon

play00:35

strength that threshold is 70% of

play00:38

Maximum muscle contraction strength okay

play00:41

but what does that mean well this varies

play00:43

by exercise and position but here's the

play00:46

general principle you need to choose

play00:47

exercises and positions that allow you

play00:50

to create a really strong muscle

play00:52

contraction at least 70% of the force

play00:55

that that muscle is capable of producing

play00:58

now you might be saying okay great but

play01:00

what exercises do that well today we're

play01:02

going to cover five of my favorites for

play01:04

commonly injured tenants for each of

play01:07

these exercises the protocol that I

play01:08

recommend for building Tenon strength is

play01:11

three sets of 30 seconds with a

play01:13

challenging isometric muscle contraction

play01:16

meaning a static hold in that position

play01:18

for 30 seconds after you complete that

play01:21

30se second challenging hold rest for 90

play01:23

seconds and then repeat so three sets

play01:26

total 30 seconds that's we're going to

play01:27

use for each exercise this takes a

play01:29

advantage of something called creep

play01:31

where a muscle slowly shortens during

play01:34

that muscle contraction and the Tenon

play01:36

slowly lengthens or loses tension this

play01:39

slow tendon lengthening underload is a

play01:42

great stimulus for collagen synthesis

play01:45

okay now that we understand why let's

play01:47

dive into the five exercises exercise

play01:50

number one is a single leg calf raise

play01:52

isometric and I think this is a really

play01:54

important exercise for everyone athletes

play01:57

Runners older adults people who want to

play02:00

have a strong calf and not have Achilles

play02:02

T in pain but I very often see this

play02:05

exercise done incorrectly or done in a

play02:07

way that doesn't actually stimulate the

play02:09

Achilles tenant enough to actually get

play02:11

stronger the way that I recommend doing

play02:12

this exercise is with one foot placed on

play02:15

a box and the back foot down on the

play02:17

ground this is going to do a couple

play02:19

different things number one is it's

play02:21

going to stabilize you while holding a

play02:24

barbell so that way you can put a lot of

play02:26

weight through the back foot this is

play02:28

particularly important for really strong

play02:30

athletes because strong athletes often

play02:32

need hundreds of pounds on their back to

play02:35

really adequately stimulate the tendon

play02:37

and get to that 70% loading threshold

play02:40

for example when I tested Lily it took

play02:42

her 220 lbs to get to that 70% Mark so

play02:46

the main reason that we're doing the

play02:47

calf raise this way is because we can

play02:49

get much more load through the Achilles

play02:51

Tenon than with doing something like a

play02:54

single leg calf raise holding a dumbbell

play02:56

or a seated calf raise where it's just

play02:58

harder to get to enough load for this to

play02:59

be effective here are some cues to make

play03:01

sure that you get the most out of this

play03:03

exercise set up the barbell with a truly

play03:06

challenging load you want to build up to

play03:08

this over time appropriately but do

play03:10

understand that Achilles Tenon ruptures

play03:12

occur with fast movements not slow

play03:14

controlled isometric contraction so it

play03:16

is safe to progress yourself to a strong

play03:18

muscle contraction here place a box

play03:20

slightly in front of the bar to

play03:22

stabilize the front foot on start on

play03:24

your weaker side and keep the foot on

play03:26

the ground place a bar on your back just

play03:28

like you would for a back squat and hold

play03:30

a tall posture hold a position where

play03:32

your heel is slightly off the ground to

play03:35

activate your calf muscles importantly

play03:38

keep your knee straight allowing the

play03:39

knee to bend just a little bit can

play03:41

decrease the load through the Achilles

play03:43

tendon so be sure to keep an eye out for

play03:45

this common compensation once you find

play03:47

the right position hold that strong

play03:49

muscle contraction for 30 seconds and

play03:51

repeat three times I recommend that

play03:52

athletes and Runners do this exercise

play03:54

three times per week all right moving on

play03:56

to exercise number two we have a leg

play03:58

extension overcome isometric this

play04:00

movement is great for targeting the

play04:02

patellar tendon in the front of the knee

play04:04

athletes who have a history of Jumper

play04:06

knee or patellar tendon pain will

play04:08

benefit from consistently loading and

play04:10

strengthening that patellar tenant this

play04:12

is really common in football basketball

play04:15

volleyball and soccer players when an

play04:17

athlete has patellar tendon pain from

play04:19

jumping and squatting I like to perform

play04:21

this exercise at the start of their

play04:23

training session to help reduce that

play04:25

pain level here are some cues to think

play04:26

about set up the leg extension machine

play04:28

not all the way out straight not all the

play04:30

way bent to 90° but about halfway in

play04:33

between at that 45° or so of knee

play04:35

flexion start on the weaker side place

play04:38

the weight stack all the way to the

play04:39

bottom so that way when you kick out

play04:40

into the machine it won't move no matter

play04:43

how hard you kick with one leg and then

play04:45

the last step is just getting a strong

play04:46

muscle contraction about 70% of your

play04:49

maximum potential Force production and

play04:52

then holding that for 30 seconds I like

play04:55

to coach this ramping up for about 2

play04:57

seconds and then holding that steady

play04:59

contraction about 70% of your maximum

play05:02

for the rest of the 30 seconds again

play05:04

this is a really great way to build

play05:06

patellar Tenon strength all right I know

play05:07

what you guys are really thinking Matt

play05:09

where'd you get those cool shorts so

play05:11

glad you asked this is a good time to

play05:13

mention our sponsor 10,000 if you're

play05:15

anything like me you wait way too long

play05:18

to upgrade your workout gear the 10,000

play05:20

interval shorts have been a big upgrade

play05:22

to my workout wardrobe and pretty much

play05:24

my everyday clothes because I really

play05:26

just wear athletic clothes these shorts

play05:28

are really stretchy and comfortable and

play05:30

the liner makes them really great for

play05:31

running there's a big liner pocket that

play05:33

you can stick your phone in all the way

play05:35

and it won't move while you're running

play05:36

also importantly unlike a lot of running

play05:38

shorts these actually have two big deep

play05:41

front pockets I can't stand it when

play05:43

running shorts don't have pockets so

play05:45

these interval shorts are a really great

play05:47

option to have both the liner pocket and

play05:49

the two big front Deep Pockets this

play05:51

makes them great to wear in the gym and

play05:53

every day these interval shorts are

play05:54

already very reasonably priced and a

play05:56

good value and on top of that they send

play05:58

over a discount code you can get 20% off

play06:00

with code movement so big thanks to

play06:02

10,000 for sponsoring this video and

play06:04

supporting our mission to make the world

play06:06

stronger if you want to check out the

play06:07

interal shorts use the link in our

play06:08

description now back to the video all

play06:10

right now moving on to number three

play06:11

which is one of my favorites and this is

play06:13

the hamstring long lever bridge this is

play06:15

a movement that helps Target the

play06:17

proximal hamstring tendons this is

play06:19

particularly valuable for athletes with

play06:22

a history of hamstring strengths this

play06:24

can be done daily or prior to each

play06:26

training session remember that

play06:28

isometrics don't cause as much fatigue

play06:30

as full range of motion exercises so

play06:32

these can be incorporated before your

play06:34

training session after your training

play06:36

session or even on your off days I just

play06:38

like to say find a way to get it done

play06:40

three times per week okay here are some

play06:41

cues for doing this exercise correctly

play06:43

what you want to do is Bridge up into a

play06:45

glute Bridge position and then you want

play06:47

to walk your heels out away from your

play06:49

butt we want the knees to be bent about

play06:52

45° meaning the knee angle if we're

play06:54

looking from the side would be about

play06:57

135° if you're doing this correctly then

play06:59

you're going to feel your hamstrings

play07:01

more than the glutes in this position if

play07:03

you were to bend your knees all the way

play07:04

to 90° then you would feel more of your

play07:06

glutes working so to really Target that

play07:08

proximal hamstring we want to drive the

play07:10

heels straight down into the ground and

play07:13

importantly maintain alignment between

play07:14

the knees hips rib cage and shoulders

play07:18

hold this position for 30 seconds and

play07:20

repeat three times if you're able to do

play07:23

this double leg long lever glute Bridge

play07:25

successfully for 30 seconds three times

play07:27

then you can progress to a single leg

play07:29

long lever Bridge same exact position in

play07:31

Q's just with one heel driving down to

play07:34

the ground instead of two so use the

play07:35

long lever bridge to build strong

play07:37

hamstring tendons all right moving on to

play07:39

exercise number four we have the open

play07:41

can overcoming isometric this is

play07:43

specific to the bicep tendon the bicep

play07:45

tenant on the front of the shoulder is a

play07:47

common area of injury if you are an

play07:49

athlete you're working with has pain in

play07:51

the front of the shoulders with dips

play07:53

bench press or reaching behind their

play07:55

back then this may be a good movement to

play07:57

train here are some cues stand near a

play07:59

wall and bring the arm forward about 30°

play08:01

in front of the body rotate your arm so

play08:03

that way your thumb is facing upward now

play08:05

push into the wall with about 70% of

play08:08

your maximum potential Force it's okay

play08:10

if this is a little bit painful to the

play08:12

sensitive area but I just like to keep

play08:14

the pain level below a 4 out of 10 also

play08:17

make sure that that pain level is

play08:18

returning to Baseline after 24 hours if

play08:21

this exercise or any of these tenant

play08:23

exercises are elevating your pain level

play08:24

for more than 24 hours then you want to

play08:26

dial back and push a little bit less

play08:28

overall this exercise has done against

play08:30

the wall or holding a dumbbell can be a

play08:32

really good stimulus to build the

play08:33

strength back in that bicep tendon all

play08:35

right and the last tendon that we're

play08:36

going to address is the extensor tendons

play08:38

in the elbow that is responsible for

play08:41

tennis elbow it's pretty common to get

play08:43

pain in the elbow from sport motions in

play08:45

order to address this pain I like to

play08:47

find a long item and work on a motion

play08:50

that's called supination so if we think

play08:52

about our goal here our goal is to get

play08:53

the muscles that attach to those tenons

play08:56

to work really hard around 70% of their

play08:58

maximum Force production also we want to

play09:01

be able to hold that strong muscle

play09:02

contraction for 30 seconds of tension so

play09:05

that way that tendon can slowly lengthen

play09:07

and start to stimulate collagen

play09:08

synthesis and heal in order to do this

play09:10

you're going to have to search around

play09:11

your house for a long item that can

play09:13

provide torque for a superation motion

play09:16

something like a bat or a golf club or a

play09:18

broom can work then you're going to want

play09:20

to stabilize your forearm and slowly

play09:23

supinate until you can get that strong

play09:25

muscle contraction adjust your grip up

play09:28

or down with the item that you're using

play09:29

using in order to get that 70%

play09:31

contraction strength you can either hold

play09:33

one position for example about a 45°

play09:36

angle for all 30 seconds or you can

play09:39

slowly move between a few different

play09:41

positions pausing for 10 seconds in each

play09:43

position this is going to do a much

play09:45

better job at stimulating that tendon to

play09:46

heal than any number of icing and

play09:49

stretching and mobilizations and other

play09:51

passive things you might have seen okay

play09:53

so to summarize if you have a Tenon that

play09:55

you want to strengthen find the exercise

play09:57

that allows you to get a really strong

play09:58

muscle contraction and make that Tenon

play10:01

work hard for 30 seconds as that Tenon

play10:04

slowly lengthens during that strong

play10:06

muscle contraction it's going to be a

play10:07

great stimulus for collagen synthesis

play10:10

make sure you're doing this consistently

play10:11

three times a week and often for at

play10:14

least 4 to8 weeks to really see the best

play10:17

results from this some other things that

play10:18

can help with Tenon healing as well

play10:20

include getting enough vitamin C

play10:22

especially in the morning adequate
