Mechanical stress: the simple principle behind many types of pain<\/span><\/b><\/h1>\n

People often talk about \u201cpoor posture,\u201d \u201cwear and tear,\u201d or a \u201cfragile body.\u201d In reality, much of the pain experienced by athletes and active people can be explained primarily by one thing: how we manage the mechanical stress placed on the body.\u00b9 <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

What is mechanical stress?<\/span><\/b> <\/span><\/h2>\n

Every time you move, your muscles, tendons, bones, and joints are subjected to a certain amount of stress: this is mechanical stress. Running, jumping, strength training, playing soccer, carrying heavy loads, and doing back-to-back fitness classes\u2014all of these activities place forces on your tissues.\u00b2 <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

This stress isn’t “bad” in and of itself. On the contrary: it’s thanks to stress that the body adapts and becomes stronger. We can think of it as a simple balance: <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  • Workload is what you demand of your body (volume, intensity, frequency, impact).<\/span> <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
      \n
    • Capacity is what your tissues can handle and repair between workouts.<\/span> <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      Tissues adapt precisely when the load exceeds their usual level by a small amount, provided they are given time to repair and strengthen themselves. The problem begins when this capacity is exceeded by a large margin or too often, without sufficient recovery time. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

      Not all fabrics adapt at the same rate<\/span><\/b> <\/span><\/h3>\n

      This is where an important detail comes into play:<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

        \n
      • Muscles respond relatively quickly to a change in load: with regular training, increases in strength and muscle mass can be seen within a few weeks.\u00b3<\/span> <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
          \n
        • Tendons adapt more slowly: the first adaptations take weeks to appear, but more profound changes often take several months3.<\/span> <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
            \n
          • Bone also responds to mechanical stress, but changes in density and structure are typically measured over periods ranging from several months to the long term.\u00b3<\/span> <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

            In other words, you may feel \u201cstronger\u201d fairly quickly, even though the structures that transmit and absorb force (tendons, bones) haven\u2019t yet fully adapted. This is one of the reasons why certain overuse injuries occur just when you feel like you\u2019re \u201cin shape.\u201d <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

            When the load exceeds capacity: \u201ctoo much, too fast\u201d<\/span><\/b> <\/span><\/h4>\n

            Most overuse injuries are not caused by a single wrong movement, but by an accumulation of stress that, little by little, exceeds the body\u2019s ability to repair the tissues1,2.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

            Typical scenarios: <\/strong><\/p>\n

              \n
            • A runner who increases their runs from 1 to 4 per week over the course of a few weeks, while maintaining the same pace as before.<\/span> <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
                \n
              • Someone who adds CrossFit or padel to an already busy schedule without lightening the load elsewhere.<\/span> <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
                  \n
                • The athlete who goes back to training \u201cjust like before\u201d after several months off, because \u201cI used to do this without any trouble two years ago.\u201d<\/span> <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                  On paper, these are good intentions. But for muscles, tendons, or bones that aren\u2019t used to it anymore, it\u2019s often too much, too fast. The result isn\u2019t necessarily a major, dramatic tear, but rather pain that sets in gradually: the Achilles tendon, kneecap, periosteum, shoulder\u20261. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

                  How This Model Changes the Way You View Your Pain<\/span><\/b> <\/span><\/h3>\n

                  The \u201cload\/capacity\u201d model is useful because it allows us to move beyond statements like \u201cyou\u2019ve ruined everything\u201d or \u201cyou have a weak back\u201d and replace them with something more constructive:<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

                  \u201cYour fabrics were exposed to more stress than they were designed to handle for some time.\u201d<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

                  This helps explain why:<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

                    \n
                  • Two people can play the same sport without experiencing the same aches and pains;<\/span> <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
                      \n
                    • Pain may occur after a change in volume or rhythm, even without a \u201cwrong movement\u201d;<\/span> <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
                        \n
                      • It is often possible to continue exercising, provided that the intensity and type of exercise are adjusted, rather than stopping all activity1,3.<\/span> <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                        How to Use This in Your Workout<\/span><\/b> <\/span><\/h3>\n

                        We can’t control everything, but a few simple guidelines can really help:<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

                          \n
                        • Avoid taking big steps: don\u2019t suddenly double your weekly volume (kilometers, hours of exercise, weight lifted).<\/span> <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
                            \n
                          • Introduce new activities gradually: a new activity (running, HIIT, racquet sports, etc.) = start small and cut back a little on other activities at first, rather than adding it \u201con top of everything else.\u201d<\/span> <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
                              \n
                            • Monitoring changes in pain: discomfort that appears immediately and then disappears completely the next day is not the same as pain that returns sooner and is more severe with each session.\u00b9<\/span> <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
                                \n
                              • Think in terms of weeks, not individual sessions: what matters is the overall trend (gradual increase or sudden spikes), rather than the perfect session.<\/span> <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                                The idea isn’t to follow a military-style plan, but to ask yourself regularly: \u201cOver the past few weeks, have I increased the workload faster than my body is used to handling?\u201d<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

                                The Role of Osteopathy in This Story<\/span><\/b> <\/span><\/h3>\n

                                In osteopathy, the goal isn\u2019t to \u201cput something back in place,\u201d but to help you:<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

                                  \n
                                • Connect your pain to your recent training history: what you\u2019ve increased, changed, or added to your workouts and daily routine.<\/span> <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
                                    \n
                                  • Manage pain through manual therapy by working on irritated tissues and the areas that are compensating for them, so that movement becomes more comfortable again.<\/span> <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
                                      \n
                                    • Adjusting your workload with you: deciding together what\u2019s reasonable to keep, what\u2019s best to lighten temporarily, and how to gradually increase it again without repeating the \u201ctoo much, too fast\u201d scenario.<\/span> <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                                      We can\u2019t promise a life free of injury. But understanding mechanical stress, the rate at which different tissues adapt, and how to manage the load often helps you make sense of your pain and develop a clear plan for staying active. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n
