Possible Tendinos/Tendinopathy Treatment: Cissus Quadrangularis

I've been taking Cissus quadrangularis to see if that had any curative effect. The product I used was "Mega Cissus - 50% Ketosterone" taking 400mg tablets before breakfast and bed. Having taken it for 50 days I have noticed no effect at all. I will continue to take it for another 50 days to see what happens. So far, for me, whilst this may have some effect on muscle and connective tissue growth, it seems to have no value in tackling tendinosis. Interestingly it does seem to have made me slightly leaner and made it easier that usual to keep weight down even though I'm not training - an effect Ihave read about

End of the first 100 days

So, I'm setting out to rest for 100 days and then do 100 days of eccentric protocol....this post marks the end of 100 days of complete rest. I can categorically state that (for me) resting has achieved absolutely nothing. All the symptoms I had before, I still have and at the same level. Audible crepitus in right knee tendons. Overstretched, creaky feelinging in pat and quad tendons on both knees.If I overload it, pain on right knee pat tendon.

At least I know that I have tried rest and won't be spending all my time now thinking - "perhaps I should just be resting". I'm going to crack on with an eccentric squat protocol and see what that does for me. I've been reading this excellent blog about eccentrics squats and will have a go at it. Will also get back in touch with physio and get their guidance/supervision.
