01
Leg Extension with Metronome

Learn how to progress patellar tendon rehab safely with slow, single-leg isotonic quadriceps work using a metronome. Discover why controlled timing, a longer lowering phase, and adjusting painful ranges can build strength without irritating the tendon. Ebonie Rio presents.

03
Tendons – load, pain and the brain

Discover how tendon pain is shaped by both load and the nervous system, and why smart rehabilitation goes far beyond rest or scans. Learn practical ways to assess pain more accurately, build capacity safely, and use simple strategies to boost confidence and recovery.

Ebonie Rio webinar Q&A

Discover a practical, evidence-based approach to tendon pain with Ebony Rio, from accurate diagnosis to choosing the right loading strategy. Learn when isometrics help, why compression matters, and how to tailor rehab to the person in front of you—not just the protocol.

Calf Raises

Learn how to assess Achilles pain with a smart load progression, from calf raises to hopping, while using pain intensity and pain location to guide clinical reasoning. You’ll also discover key differences between mid-substance tendon pain and paratendon irritation that can change exercise selection. Ebonie Rio presents.
