Proximal Hamstring Tendinopathy – exercise videos, infographic and podcast

Our articles are not designed to replace medical advice. If you have an injury we recommend seeing a qualified health professional. To book an appointment with Tom Goom (AKA ‘The Running Physio’) visit our clinic page. We offer both in-person assessments and online consultations.

We’re very fortunate in the physiotherapy community to have some great friends who create brilliant resources and share their knowledge. Today’s short blog showcases the work of 2 such physios who have helped spread the key messages from our recent paper on Proximal Hamstring Tendinopathy (Goom et al. 2016). 

Firstly we have Christopher Johnson, one of the innovators behind RunCadence who recently wrote us a great guest blog on return to running after injury. Chris is the exercise video king, like a modern-day Jane Fonda just without the leotard! He’s put together 3 brilliant videos covering the stages of PHT rehab discussed in our paper:

Stage 1 – Isometric

Stage 2 – Isotonic

Stage 3 – Isotonic exercises with hip flexion

…

Secondly, David Pope from Clinical Edge has produced a great infographic (below) based on the podcast we recorded together earlier this year. You can access the podcast along with a handout and show notes here. Follow David on Twitter via @Davidkpope.
