What listeners will find here

A practical weekly PHT rehab plan beyond the isometrics-vs-eccentrics debate
Proximal hamstring tendinopathy is the focus here, with a clear look at how isometrics, concentrics, and eccentrics each fit into rehab. The episode argues that tolerable, progressive loading matters more than chasing one “best” contraction type, then maps that idea onto a weekly routine.
A grounded look at futuristic tendon treatments for PHT
Tendon healing is the focus here, with a close look at immune therapy, ozone injections, and red or near-infrared light. The episode explores why these ideas are exciting in early research while making clear that, for proximal hamstring tendinopathy, the evidence is not yet strong enough to change current rehab basics.
Can food speed tendon healing? A practical look at protein, collagen, creatine, and more
This episode examines how nutrition may support tendon healing alongside progressive loading, with a focus on proximal hamstring tendinopathy. It reviews a 2026 paper and turns the research into practical guidance on protein, collagen plus vitamin C, creatine, vitamin D, calcium, and omega-3s.
Can stubborn PHT still improve after decades? This Q&A tackles the hard cases
Proximal hamstring tendinopathy is the focus here, with Brodie answering tougher questions about long-standing symptoms, rehab loading, diagnosis, and recovery barriers. The episode digs into pain rules, nerve involvement, hormones, stress, and why PHT is often mistaken for other conditions.
When can you run again with PHT—and why pain-free strength work may not be enough?
Proximal hamstring tendinopathy rehab is the focus here, with practical Q&A on loading, running progression, and returning to sport. Brodie tackles common sticking points like flare-ups during running, structuring strength plus cardio, and deciding when you're ready for faster running or full performance.
