I am currently suffering from painful hip flexors due to frequent heavy squats and deadlifts. I feel a dull ache even walking. Squats are out. Is there a supplement that can accelerate healing in tendons?
Cortisone injections have helped me with inflamed tendons, if you are truly in a lot of pain. Are you stretching properly before hitting squats? I also have painful hip flexors but stretching and rolling has helped tremendously with my squats.I am currently suffering from painful hip flexors due to frequent heavy squats and deadlifts.

I honestly don't know much on this subject but I would think absolutely abliterated would keep cortisone from converting to cortisol seemingly blocking cortisol. dsadeCortisone injections have helped me with inflamed tendons, if you are truly in a lot of pain.

You sir, are correct. I just read several articles and it seems my glutes are weak! I'm not sure how this happened!? Do you have any suggestions for glute specific exercises? I was able to reach a 500 pound raw squat and 585 deadlift before noticing any pain in the hip flexors. I've always squatted deep and figured that would target glutes. Should I perform sumo or conventional deads?If your hip flexors are hurting a lot during/ after squats, you most likely are not engaging the right muscles/ have weaknesses in others that cause the hip flexors to work more than they are designed to. Usually weaker glutes (do a proper glute test and don't just assume you have strong glutes) will cause a lot of other muscles around the hip to overcompensate for something the glutes should be doing.
For the meantime, it might be worth picking up something like Curcumin (with bulk piperine) and Cissus XT to quash the inflammaiton and help with tendon repair. But bear in mind supplements can help mask the issue, but not fix the way you squat.
The glutes work through various planes, and so constructing a plan around that would work. Compensation games take a while before you start to notice issues, and it is possible to still be strong yet not utilizing your muscles effectively.You sir, are correct.

Question about this: what about a complete rupture/tear of the Achilles? My brother recently did this (high volume pogo box jumps...friggin CrossFit) had surgery, and is in a cast. Recovery is said to be a full year. He's looking to cut as much recovery time as he can.If you absolutely, positively *know* it's a tendon - BPC-157 - add Curcumin if you want. If you don't know *for sure* - Curcumin (not that BPC is harmful, it's just a Gastric Peptide - but you'd just be wasting money if it wasn't tendon/ligament related). And like ^^^ Rest.
Remember: Joints aren't Tendons - Cartilage, Synovial Fluid, etc... One has them, the other doesn't.

I agree on the Flexatril..I didnt do the loading phase so it took a bit longer to work but by the 3rd bottle I got a lot of relief with injuries that Ive had for decades.I had some pretty severe Achilles Tendonosis and have had good results with Flexatril.
I agree with this. There are lots of solid reviews to support this opinion as well.I have to say Formutech makes a killer product. Flexible. It's what I use and I think it's the best on the market
