E38 - Tendon Injuries and Strength Training After 50

Episode SummaryHealth and fitness is changing quickly. Every week there seems to be a new wearable, recovery tool or training trend promising better results. The challenge is knowing what is genuinely useful and what is simply adding more noise.In this episode, I discuss some of the biggest trends I’m seeing in health and fitness, from the growing popularity of recovery tools and health tracking to why strength training remains one of the best investments you can make after 50.I also share my recent experience managing quadriceps tendinopathy, the loading approach that has dramatically improved my symptoms, and why tendon injuries often require ongoing management rather than a quick fix.We also talk about the changing role of personal trainers, why flexibility in your training becomes more important as you get older, and why consistency will always beat chasing the latest fitness trend.If you’re trying to stay healthy, strong and active after 50, this episode will help you focus on what matters and ignore what doesn’t.Dr Keith Baar - * Tendon Rehab * Isometric ExercisesStay Consistent.
