How to Get Bulletproof Tendons ft. Professor Keith Baar | Doctor Yaad Podcast

Today I’m joined by Professor Keith Baar, one of the world’s leading researchers on how tendons, ligaments, and muscles adapt to training, nutrition, and hormones. He’s a professor of Physiology and Membrane Biology at UC Davis and is best known for his pioneering work with engineered ligaments, literally growing tendons in the lab to study how they respond to load, rest, and nutrients. This is a science-driven deep dive into tendon training and injury prevention, covering how to build stronger, more resilient connective tissue, how to load tendons intelligently, the truth about isometrics, collagen and vitamin C timing, recovery protocols, and much more. If you want to understand how to get bulletproof tendons, this episode is for you.
