After learning the basics in episode #1, Brodie dives a level deeper into Proximal Hamstring Tendinopathy specific information.

We start by exploring the key anatomy features and the common hamstring tendon sites for pathology. We then dive into specific sports, tasks, movements and positions that elevate tensile and compressive strain on the hamstring tendon.

Brodie helps explain the walking/running action and the function of the hamstring during it's swing phase, contributing to high eccentric loads.

We then talk about proximal hamstring tendinopathy symptoms including deep, localized pain in the region of the ischial tuberosity that often worsens during or after running, lunging, squatting, and sitting.

We finish off with describing  provocation tests & potential differential diagnoses such as lumbar, hip, sacroiliac joint, somatic referral, radiculopathy or sciatic nerve involvement.
