Summary

This study compares two exercise programs for people with long-term pain in the Achilles, patellar tendon, or plantar fascia. One group does standard strength training, while the other adds early jumping (plyometric) exercises. Researchers will measure jump function after 12 weeks and check if re-injury rates drop over a year. The goal is to see if starting plyometrics sooner helps athletes return to sport faster and safer.
