Do more compliant tendons in the arms soften the impact?

Killsomething, Muscles and Tendons work for explosive Power, by Contraction. If you dont Stretch them in time, something will give snap, somewhere on the biomechanical line. One good thing that occurs, while Streching is you get tiny tares in the muscle, which with the help of Neurons the muscle learns to repair themselves.

What about tightening tendons? Just don't stretch?

That should do it .

Contraction with a non heavy non light weight increases tendon strength, tendon static flexibility and tendon dynamic flexibility all simultaneously.

Just my op.

Tendon static flexibility is compensated by the weight of the eccentric (and/or isometric).

Tendon dynamic flexibility is compensated by the weight of the concentric (and/or isometric).

You can bypass the stretch shortening cycle by contracting with a non heavy non light weight.

Or whats known as muscular endurance.

Stronger, longer, more flexible tendons.

In muscles....

Myofibril hypertrophy is actually myofibril hyperplasia.

Sarcoplasmic hyperplasia also increases tendon length thus increasing tendon strength (potential) without decreasing tendon flexibility (static or dynamic).

Can you elaborate on what is "non heavy non light"? And are you saying that myofibril and sarcoplasmic hyperplasia both increase tendon strength?
