简要总结
The purpose of this study is to determinate de efectiveness of eccentric exercise combined with vibration or cryotherapy in achilles tendinopathy and its effects on the anterior rectus abdominis muscle.
The investigators hypothesis is the combined eccentric exercise with vibration get better results than cryotherapy with eccentric exercise in rectus abdominis muscle parameters.

研究组 & 干预措施
Cryotherapy and eccentric exercise
12 weeks, 5 days/week, once a day, 2 exercise, 3 sets/execise, 15 repetition/set of eccentric exercise of foot plantar flexors First exercise with knee in extension, second exercise with knee in flexion. Previously subjects should cold their leg in ice water during sexteen minutes at a temperature of 8ºC (+/-2ºC)
干预措施: Cryotherapy and eccentric exercise (Procedure)
Vibration and eccentric exercise
12 weeks, 5 days/week, once a day, 2 exercise, 3 sets/execise, 15 repetition/set of eccentric exercise of foot plantar flexors First exercise with knee in extension, second exercise with knee in flexion.During the exercise subjects will be subjected to vibration. Vibrations parameters: Frequency: 35Hz, Amplitude: 4 milimeters, Force: 3,9G
