Unfortunately the topic gets difficult for me to follow with no background in anatomy, biomechanics, etc, etc. How do tendons actually get trained? The only article I found on a bodybuilding site mentioned low reps, heavy weights, but that doesn't necessarily seem consistent with what I thought were training methods in "internal" arts. It doesn't seem people are too interested in this topic outside of internal arts, but I haven't tried searching too hard for info. Figure it's easier to ask the wu ming board.

I think it is very important how strong they are and how supple they become. Also the idea of whole body movement should include the single largest connective organism-fascia. More and more research keeps coming out discussing "active" fascia.
