HOW TO RESTORE YOUR TENDONS
Tendons are often one of the weak links in the training process during the development of muscle mass, which indicates the need to use any methods to accelerate their recovery or healing of existing injuries. Below, we will consider this issue in more detail.
During the training process, micro traumatization of tendons often occurs, with a tendency to a cumulative effect. If your training program is compiled without taking into account your individual recovery abilities, which is often not so easy to track, then your overloaded tendons begin to bring you discomfort and the form of aching pain. Such injuries can turn into chronic and constantly, or from time to time bother the athlete. This happens especially often when fanatically minded athletes do not give the necessary rest to the injured areas, but stop the pain with NSAIDs or corticosteroids, and go to train, which actually only aggravates the situation, although they give temporary relief. Such phenomena are very common among athletes of all sports.
The rate of muscle regeneration is higher than that of the tendon, due to good blood filling and accelerated synthesis of protein structures. At the moment when we additionally spur the synthesis of muscle protein by taking anabolic steroids, we indirectly expose our tendons to an even greater risk of getting under-recovery and injury. In this case, the muscles recover faster and the athlete is ready to perform even larger training volumes, which is greatly facilitated by the slogan "Take more, throw further" under the idea: "if you use anabolic drugs, then you must fully work them out in your training." As we understand it, the condition of our tendons, after this, can refute this slogan.
In order for muscle fibers and tendons to grow and recover at a more uniform rate relative to each other, you should take care of them. Of course, the most important aspect in this whole issue will always be the training process, but if you include muscle protein growth stimulants in your course, it is possible that you cannot do it only by adjusting the training cycle. In such cases, we recommend that you balance this with pharmacological support aimed at increasing anabolic activity in the tendon part.
As research has shown
(Local administration of insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) stimulates tendon collagen synthesis in humans - PubMed /) an excellent tool for this purpose is the IGF-1 protein, which significantly accelerates collagen synthesis and, accordingly, will help you reduce risks. An even more significant effect is given by the combined use of IGF-1 with growth hormone, which was confirmed in the study

If you use any stimulants for muscle growth, we recommend that you look towards using IGF-1 (possibly in conjunction with growth hormone if your loads are very high).
These drugs can significantly improve the situation and give your collagen structures a certain margin of safety. This will give you the opportunity to train with more volume and intensity, and conduct your courses with much greater effectiveness.
It is worth noting that this idea will be useful both for gaining muscle mass and increasing strength results, and in the process of fat reduction, because injuries often occur during a diet when the body is in a state of a surplus of calories and may lack trace elements, which directly affects the state of the articular ligamentous apparatus.

Systemic administration of IGF-I enhances healing in collagenous extracellular matrices: evaluation of loaded and unloaded ligaments - PMC
Insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) plays a crucial role in wound healing and tissue repair. We tested the hypotheses that systemic administration of IGF-I, or growth hormone (GH), or both (GH+IGF-I) would improve healing in collagenous connective ...
