Far more common than biomechanical problems are training errors.
So the causes of ITBFS can be split into: 1. Training errors – eg too much too soon, insufficient recovery.
But the majority of people will present with a more complex mix of training errors and biomechanical problems.
It is important to look back and see if you have made any training errors related to load or training surface.
There are a lucky few patients with ITBFS who come with good mechanics and no training errors and have just got tight and so do respond quickly to soft tissue release/foam roller.
Biomechanical correction Manual therapy Strength training and correcting training errors There may be a need to cut running intitially, but there is also general agreement that off-loading the tendon for too long is unhelpful.
But no clear details on training errors beyond some distant opinions and Wenger's own insistence that his medical team are as advanced as any and that players are continually assessed and monitored, including using a GPS system that tracks all their movements in training.

Increasing c imposes a higher penalty for training errors.
Different training errors can be obtained by BP neural network training.
This solution allows us to achieve consistently lower training errors, and hence allows us to more easily introduce adaptive capabilities.
