Tendons transmit the forces from muscles to bones and proper cooperation between the muscles and tendons is important for optimal performance and the prevention of injuries. When a muscle contracts, the tendon will be stretched after all slack is removed. If a strong muscle pulls a relatively weak (compliant) tendon, this tendon will stretch (strain) a lot. This strain can lead to micro-injuries in the extracellular matrix due to collagen deformations and tears in tendon fibrils. When this is repeated many times without sufficient recovery, this can ultimately lead to (macro) injuries such as tendinopathy.
Muscles are important, but stiff tendons are the secret ingredient for high-speed performance
