Introduction Achilles tendinopathies continue to present in epidemic-like proportions. Due to its multifactorial aetiology and its fragmentarily understood pathophysiology, the management of Achilles tendinopathy is time-consuming and therefore often frustrating. Nevertheless, eccentric exercises have emerged as the key element in the treatment of these tendinopathies. However, to date, there is no general agreement on the optimal eccentric exercise protocol as subregional strain differences within the Achilles tendon are not taken into account. The purpose of this paper is therefore to critically review the published literature that currently exists on Achilles tendon strain in normal Achilles tendons as well as in Achilles tendons with t...
