In today's episode, Brodie breaks down the comments written by his past PHT client. Here is their submission when asked what their biggest insights and revelations were during Proximal hamstring tendinopathy rehab:

"My main learning points from my 2.5 years would be:

Don’t think that PHT will go away by completely resting. Pain will decrease (with rest) but once you attempt to return to activity, then you’ll have more than PHT to worry about. Seek input from someone who has experience in treating this condition. Keep notes on what activity you do and reactions to this, both rehab and what other daily activities might impact. Do not accept corticosteroid injection if suggested. Do seek MRI or ultrasound to help with diagnosis if unclear. Talk about the condition and its impact on you with those close to you - it’s a nasty injury that impacts many aspects of life. Be kind to yourself! Make sure to get enough sleep. Eat well, including regular protein in your diet. Realise that in order to make progress you need to really commit to your rehab. There will be progress, but also dips/flare-ups which can mess with your head. Get a sit/stand desk for work, but don’t become fearful of sitting - you can’t stand at all times.
