Too Much, Too Soon? Muscle vs Tendon Strength”

In today’s Walk & Talk, I break down a question a lot of us ignore until we get hurt: Can you injure yourself by working out too hard, too fast — especially if your muscles get stronger faster than your tendons?

The short answer: YES.
Muscles adapt quickly. Tendons? Not so much.
And that mismatch can lead to shoulder pain, elbow strain, knee issues, and overuse injuries that show up when you’re finally hitting your stride.

In this episode, I talk about:
🔥 How muscle strength increases in weeks, but tendon adaptation takes months
🔥 Why “too much too soon” can overload joints and connective tissue
🔥 Early warning signs your tendons are NOT keeping up
🔥 Shoulder pain and the rotator cuff connection
🔥 How smart progression keeps you in the gym instead of on the sidelines
🔥 The importance of warm-ups, tempo, mobility, and rest
🔥 My own experience noticing pain during my fitness comeback

Whether you’re restarting your fitness journey or pushing into a new level, understanding this muscle–tendon imbalance can protect you from unnecessary injuries.

💬 If you’re rebuilding your body, remember:

Strength is more than muscle — it’s tendons, ligaments, joints, and your whole movement system working together.

Stay consistent. Stay patient. Stay healthy.
