How often should you train your tendons?

📈 For heavy slow resistance and plyometric exercises, I typically recommend having a rest day between training sessions.

That’s because it typically takes around 36 hours to hit net positive collagen synthesis.

📊 Some exercises can be done daily though.

Cyclical movements like sled pulls are a good low level consistent stimulus to the tendons that can be trained daily.

🗓️ Similarly, isometric exercises tend to be a bit less taxing and can often be trained daily.

These are great guidelines to follow, but also be sure to monitor symptoms and how you’re feeling and individualize your approach.
