  • yeah, she's on drugs gotta be, had partial tear of tendon DIAGNOSED, 2 weeks ago, hospital said plaster cast NEEDED, i refused, ice pack, TIGER BALM cream, and heel lift in shoe, continued work on construction site,injuriy 99.9% healed inside 3 wks, ready 2 train again,

  • Boil some water with Salt and Garden Rue...Garden Rue is the secret ingredient for a fast recovery!! Im an athlete and i been doing this for many of injuries through my career! especially for muscles and bruises! Note: water should be salty, wait until water boils and gets color from the Rue... Apply on injured area either with a rag or by dipping the injured area in the water as long as you can until its to hot, then repeat until water gets cooler... Also note that it will be very hot!!

  • @CaneFu yeah I think it would cripple me too.. i just get up after sitting down for 5 minutes and there is pins and needles in my achilles tendon....the sad part is that im only 14 years old and i have no idea how much longer this is gonna go on for...i still want to play my baseball so i dont know what will happen....this fuckin channel sucks

  • I injured my Achilles tendon awhile back and simple walking irritates it - I cannot imagine jumping like this for rehabilitation as I am sure it would severely injure my tendon and possibly cripple me for life.

    Expert Village is obviously nothing but a bunch of posers pretending to be experts - this video is pure nonsense and horrible advice for anyone recovering from an Achilles tendon injury. Take this whole damn channel down.

  • This is why you do not watch the Expert Bullshit channel! "in the next video we will take a chainsaw directly to the tendon and then show you how to reattach it correctly with a regular sewing machine".

  • Is this to make the tendon better or worse???

  • absolutely horrible advice. This is a great way to rupture/re-rupture an injured achilles.

  • this is terrible "advice" - please if you have Achilles tendonitis, don't do this!!!
