Are heel lifts superior to eccentrics for Achilles tendinopathy?

In this video we investigate a new research study looking at heel lifts vs eccentrics on the treatment of achilles Tendinopathy.
We look at the study in detail and look at how this research may inform our clinical practice.

Great information as always Tom.
My question would be for eccentric program, why that frequency at the first place. We rarely see strength and positive tissue gains with training twice a day, without previous prolonged adaptation.
Agreed 100% that the progressive program with deceleration, plyos etc along with other factors might be more useful.
Allowing for individual needs, load, capacity, training, experience, nutrition.... on the other hand that would be difficult to research without bias :)
