- the detailed structure of the Achilles tendon and how it works
- what can go wrong with the Achilles tendon
- why the most common problem is one of failed healing, not inflammation
- how to do eccentric exercises that actually repair tendon damage
- how much activity is safe to do while your Achilles tendon is healing
Based on randomized controlled trials from peer-reviewed journals, Treat Your Own Achilles Tendinitis offers a simple, yet effective program that can be done in the privacy of one's home without equipment. And perhaps best of all, it takes just a few minutes a day to do
