In today's episode, Brodie answers the following questions:

Rob: "I'm currently on a 2-week holiday. I do have access to the gym here but the equipment isn't as good as at my gym at home. Is easing back on the exercise likely to set me back at all? 

Brent: "Are the rehab stages considered 'strength' training and, if so, is it too much strength, taking away from my runs or bike days?"

Jennifer: "I saw a PT who said my hamstring was constantly under tension because of a pelvic tilt. Do you know if anterior pelvic tilts can be a cause of PHT or if there's any benefit to correcting the tilt?"

Rebecca Appleby: "When the PHT is responding well to a solid rehab plan, at what point can strides be reincorporated into a return to run routine, or does the PHT need to be remedied first?"

In today's episode, Brodie answers the following questions:

Julia: Hi Brodie I have a general query about the fact that this condition is so difficult to treat within the physio/orthopedic community with seemingly only a handful of specialists (like yourself) who understand how to rehab it successfully. Is this a new 21st-century condition that has been amplified by our sedentary lifestyles and long hours of sitting at work? It just seems strange that no one had this problem back in the 80s and 90s when jogging/running became so popular. 

Harvey: Hi Brodie, Maybe you could expand on how a PHT sufferer assesses whether they have a relatively strong or weak tendon. For example, a slight increase in a strength exercise or perhaps too much sitting in a given time period will cause a flareup and will often take 4-5 days for the tendon to settle back down.

Trina: Rehabilitation exercises are great; usually doing the job to strengthen and “repair” if following doctor’s orders. However, once the hamstring and/or tendon no longer cause pain, is it expected that someone would continue the exercises, and if so, would it be less frequently, fewer reps, lower intensity, or something else? In other words, what is the post recovery protocol?

Jen Johnson: Hi Brodie, my question is, how common is it to have pain in the "muscle belly" of the hamstring? Is this truly connected to this PHT injury? I occasionally have pain at the high tendon attachment but it is rare. I have really stalled in my rehab and I am wondering if it could be something else. I should clarify, that in the beginning, it was more prominent in the attachment but not now.

I talk with a lot of people with proximal hamstring tendinopathy, and I commonly hear them say "Brodie, I know you talk about the importance of tendon compression during rehab, but I still don't fully get it".

Well, this episode aims to clear the confusion behind what tendon compression is and why is it important in your PHT rehab.

Today, Brodie discusses the key principles of injury management. In particular, will an injury get better on its own.

Brodie starts with discussing the injury adaptation zone and why some injuries revert back to a pain-free state quickly, while others persist. These include: 

• Mismanagement in the early phases.
• Load exceeding capacity outside of running.
• Persisting with missing pieces to your rehab. 
• Encountering unhelpful misinformation about your injury

Arthi developed proximal hamstring tendinopathy in September 2021 one month out from a marathon. With stretching, manual therapy and dry needling, the medical team gave Arthi the all-clear to participate in the marathon. She raced and qualified for the Boston marathon but symptoms persisted. 

Arthi stopped running and continued swimming, foam rolling, chiro adjustments, dry needling and sports massages to try and heal. The situation was becoming urgent as the Boston Marathon approached ever closer.

Arthi turned her rehab around and comes onto the podcast to share her success, insights and her Boston marathon outcome!

"Reached next level of insanity: since about 2 weeks my healthy leg is in pain because of PHT. Because of my other hammie I can't run, jump, walk too much and sit only on cushions.  

This PHT on the right side started after doing hamstring exercises! 

Exercises, that should heal or prevent from PHT! 

Single leg elevated hip thrust and single leg glute bridges with straight legs. 

I never had any tendon problems before my injury 2 years ago on my left leg. 

So how can these exercises cause PHT on a healthy leg?? 

And what should I do for rehab when PT exercises cause PHT?"

Brodie illuminates the confusion of this scenario along with helpful tips in this situation.
