Metabolism
Tendons transmit the forces produced by the muscles to the skeleton and, therefore, contribute to performance during various movements. However, increases in muscle forces e.g. due to training need to go in line with adaptations of the tendinous tissue to avoid impairments of tissue integrity and pr...
