A vertical jump or vertical leap is the act of raising one's center of gravity higher in the vertical plane solely with the use of one's own muscles; it is a measure of how high an individual or athlete can elevate off the ground (jump) from a standstill. Contents.
Tendon excursion takes place as the muscle contracts and the joint rotates. The amount of tendon excursion is related to the amount of the joint rotation. A pulley-type constraint keeps the tendon path close to the bone when the tendon crosses a joint.roper excursion and gliding of the tendon determine the efficiency of this function. Studies of the tendon excursion and gliding based on two simple mechanical concepts have resulted in several significant clinical implications.
Tendon Debridement and Repair. During a tendon debridement, the damaged tendon and inflammatory tissue surrounding, can be removed. The tendon tear can be repaired, and the tendon is tabularized restoring its normal shape. Tendon debridement and repair is most effective when less than 50% of the tendon is torn. Tenodesis A tenodesis is a procedure where the damaged tendon is sewn to the normal tendon. In this case, the damaged segment of peroneus brevis is removed (usually a few centimeters), and the ends left behind are sewn to the adjacent peroneus longus tendon.
