Since a tendon is a living tissue, it is not a surprise that tendon shows the capacity to adapt its structure and mechanical properties to the functional demands of the entire muscle-tendon unit. However, compared with muscle, the experimental knowledge of the effects of strength or endurance-type training on tendon tissue is scarce and clinical human experiments are completely lacking (1). Research should, however, be able to improve the true understanding of the biomechanical, functional, morphological and biochemical changes that occur in tendons due to training and physical activity, since understanding of the basic physiology of a tissue is the key to understanding its pathological processes (1, 2). Compared with muscle tissue, the metabolic turnover of tendon tissue is many times slower due to poorer vascularity and circulation (1, 3). The adaptive responses of tendons to training are therefore also slower than those in muscles, but they may finally be considerable if the time frame is long enough (3, 4).
由于肌腱是一种活组织，因此肌腱表现出根据整个肌肉 - 肌腱单元的功能需求来调整其结构和力学性能的能力也就不足为奇了。然而，与肌肉相比，关于力量或耐力型训练对肌腱组织影响的实验性知识匮乏，并且完全缺乏针对人类的临床实验（1）。然而，研究应该能够增进对因训练和体育活动而在肌腱中发生的生物力学、功能、形态和生化变化的真正理解，因为了解组织的基本生理学是理解其病理过程的关键（1, 2）。与肌肉组织相比，由于血管分布和血液循环较差，肌腱组织的代谢周转要慢很多倍（1, 3）。因此，肌腱对训练的适应性反应也比肌肉慢，但如果时间框架足够长，最终可能相当可观（3, 4）。
