Core Tip	Eccentric exercises are effective in the mana-gement of tendinopathy. Eccentric training improves patients’ symptoms and reverses tendinopathys’ path-ology. The ideal eccentric protocol is unknown in the literature. Eccentric training alone does not respond positively in many patients. Therefore, clinicians com-bine eccentric training with other forms of therapy such as stretching exercises, isometric contraction, electrotherapy, manual therapy, deep transverse friction, taping, acupuncture and improvement of lumbo - pelvic control. More research is needed to find out which treatment strategy combined with eccentric training will provide the best results in the rehabilitation of tendinopathy.
