First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looked at 28 elite male ice hockey players to see how patellar tendinopathy (a common knee overuse injury) affects leg strength and power. Players were grouped by ultrasound findings into healthy, one-sided, or both-sided tendon issues. They performed leg strength tests on a robotic device and a 6-second all-out cycling test. The goal was to identify differences that could help guide training or injury prevention.
