Summary

The main objective of this research project is to study the transient adaptations that occur in the tendon immediately after the object of training with low loads and blood flow restriction and to compare these adaptations with those derived from training with high loads, in order to thus helping to elucidate the complex existing framework regarding the effects of this training methodology on the tendon.

Conditions

  • Patellar Tendinitis

Interventions

OTHER

BFR intervention

Training is applied to this group using low-load exercises with restriction of blood flow. Based on the variables used by the major part of the protocols used in studies on the ERFS, the protocol that will be applied to this group will consist of the following parameters. * Training: 1 series of 30 repetitions followed by 3 series of 15 repetitions of squats * Rest between series: Duration of 45 seconds. * Workload: 30% of 1RM. * Cadence: 2 seconds for the concentric phase and 2 seconds for the eccentric phase (2:2). * Cuff pressure: The inflation pressure will be individualized for each individual. A pressure equivalent to 80% of the minimum pressure necessary for the total occlusion of the femoral artery. • Cuff placement: proximal quadriceps.

OTHER

High load intervention

A program will be applied to this group of exercise with high loads as a method of treatment in which the following will be applied parameters: * Training: 4 series of 12 repetitions of squats. * Rest between series: Duration 2 minutes. * Workload: 70% of 1RM.
