In today's Q&A Brodie answers the three following questions from podcast listeners:

"I'm a marathon runner and I've been suffering from PHT for 3 years. Progressive loading exercises didn't work and eventually, I gave up. Nothing seemed to work. I've now started running again building up very slowly (started with 3x1 minute running and a minute walk between). I can now run 3.5 miles pain-free. In your opinion is this something that could continue to work for me and has anyone ever recovered from PHT in this way?"

“Is there any technique to build LL muscle with this tendinopathy? PHT about 3 years. Finally, a year ago I found a PT which made me workout through pain (at no more than 4-5) with controlled movements, which has helped me be able to squat, deadlift, and some other movements at 75%-85% of my 1RM, which has improved my body quite a lot. I still find limits in what I can do or how much stress I can put into my workout. So please some advice on this subject would be greatly appreciated!”

“Would love to hear more about rehabbing PHT while training for a race. I'm scheduled to run Boston in April and have been rehabbing since December 3rd. I haven't yet introduced speed back in but slowly building up mileage. Trying to decide if I should back out of the race or if I should run it and just take it easy. Just don't want to jeopardize my progress”.
