It was a pleasure to be hosted by @DionKapnias on the Clinical Pearls Podcast to chat all about exercise for shoulder pain and rotator cuff tendinopathy - https://t.co/rkvSRM5LpH

@ryanmarcevans @AdamMeakins Probably likely very true. Time to shift physio reputation so that we move away from these trivial opinion based findings not supported by evidence. They do nothing to build the communities trust in our expertise.

so another #ISTS2023 done. I've summarised my essential 10 or so take-home messages (catering to my biases) - although there were many more. And apologies to the speakers if I haven't referenced you directly (I don't know whether you are on X).

@DrSarahWarby @MelbShGroup @LynWatsonCourse Is there a link to a full write up or protocol?

[Nick Ilić @NickIlic_Physio]

The concept of muscle "knots" gets my goat. 🐐
A "knot" is an area of localised sensitivity that the PATIENT feels. It's subjective.
A "knot" 🥨 (soft-tissue) looks the same under the microscope(biopsy) as a non-knot 🥖 (adjacent soft-tissue).

@Claire_Minshull @Retlouping @SandyHiltonPT @JaredPowell12 @SarahHaagPT @JApproach So I think we are seeing studies report little difference in outcome as many of these factors are not considered or not easily measured. What we can say is, strength is one small part of the equation & that pain can improve as long as people are moving & trying to be active

[Josh Naunton @JoshNaunton]

@Claire_Minshull @Retlouping @SandyHiltonPT @JaredPowell12 @SarahHaagPT @JApproach -do the studies consider individual responses, what other factors may influence a patient outcome such as co-morbidities, expectations, prior beliefs, past life experiences all of these may negate the benefits of strength improvement

[Josh Naunton @JoshNaunton]

@Claire_Minshull @Retlouping @SandyHiltonPT @JaredPowell12 @SarahHaagPT @JApproach We can't ignore the fact that tissues are sensitive to forces applied on them. There is a certain amount of force (strength) required to perform tasks, the amount of strength or force required will vary from individual to individual & each person's baseline ability also varies.

@MC_Grahamer @LukePerraton @OJSM_SportsMed Well done Luke. Does this have an equivalent estimate on a seated knee extension @LukePerraton?

[Josh Naunton @JoshNaunton]

@ryanmarcevans @DrJN_SportsMed @TheoKapa67 Over treatment doesn’t just lack penalty. It is also rewarded financially and by consumer perception as they want thoroughness and they feel special when receive ‘fancy’ or extensive treatment

[Josh Naunton @JoshNaunton]

@DrPeteMalliaras This is a great topic and an important one! If we are meaning biomechanical definition, do you think there is an optimal tendon stiffness? A balance between too much and too little? Which may vary depending on the activity demands and also surface?

[Josh Naunton @JoshNaunton]

@SanamTavakkoli @LukePerraton @DrPeteMalliaras @Keith_Hill_RAIL @MonashMRU Congrats @SanamTavakkoli well done!

[Josh Naunton @JoshNaunton]

@KeithKnurr @jefftaylorhaas @KeithKnurr ?

[Josh Naunton @JoshNaunton]

@KeithKnurr @jefftaylorhaas Do you have any way of measuring RTD in the clinic? Or only lab based at the moment?

[Josh Naunton @JoshNaunton]

@ryanmarcevans @northwoods1980 Whoops.
