Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine differences in lower extremity landing biomechanics and real-world physical activity between individuals with patellar tendinopathy compared to individuals without patellar tendinopathy,and to determine the acute effects of an isometric loading intervention on lower extremity landing biomechanics in individuals with patellar tendinopathy.

Primary Outcome

Angular force or moment will be measured in Nm/kg\*m where "Nm" represents angular force and "kg\*m" represents normalization to body weight and height.

Interventions

  • OTHER Isometric Exercise
  • OTHER Sham Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation
