Since I partially tore my triceps tendon, I've been doing a lot of running the past 2 months. It's been a mixture of slow jogs on a trail or slow sprints on a track usually 4 days a week. Now I think I'm developing achilles tendonitis since my achilles is starting to really hurt just walking and going down stairs. Getting old sucks.

I've had a similar yet opposite experience lately - I tore my calf (and discovered two herniated discs that I've been long-suffering through) while running back in October and filled that time by getting back into the gym and lifting weights again for the first time in a very long time.

I can lift some heavy weights and get a good workout with the added benefit of not feeling as tired as a 12 mile run leaves me but now I think I've gone and torn something in my right bicep. :mad:

It's like I cannot win no matter what I try. Time to just stick to going for walks!

I'm hoping my doctor can clear me by end of May before it gets too hot and I can no longer run outside.

I'd rather be in the gym weightlifting since I know how to better regulate volume and intensity through periodization of my training blocks and focusing on different things over several weeks/months. With running, I'm doing jogging or sprinting which is the same motion.

Can't stem cell therapy possibly help that?
