Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Correlation between acute:chronic work ratio in covered distance with patient-reported symptoms during the rehabilitation of their chronic Achilles tendinopathy
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
- To correlate the quantified training behaviour expressed in frequency of training with the patient-reported symptoms<br /><br>- To correlate the quantified training behaviour expressed in speed of training with the patient-reported symptoms<br /><br>- To define whether there was a difference in training behaviour (expressed as covered distance, frequency of training and speed of training) at 6 months before the onset of tendinopathy symptoms compared to 1 month before the onset of tendinopathy symptoms <br /><br>- Check whether there is a difference in biomechanics
