Re-Builds Tendons and Strengthen it?

Would IGF-1 LR3 help fixing partially torn and over stretched tendons?

I don't have the study, but I believe there is research that IGF will do this.

I'm going to say no and here is why. lr3IGF-1 only works in the body for 4-5 weeks max. So you have to cycle off the same period you were on to get effects again. So I don't think your body has a consistent-high amount of igf-1 to repair enough damaged tissue to make a difference. Again, this is IMO. But rHGH can be run for many months to years if one does so. Your elevated IGF-1 levels stimulated by the rHGH are consistently high so that gives your body the time it needs to strongly rebuild and repair serious injuries. I stretched my left achilles tendon so bad that after it healed it is now much thicker from too much scar tissue. I was playing flag football when weighing 230lbs at 5'10", small-medium frame. That was too much weight for my achilles tendons to handle. I stretched it when just taking off from the line as a receiver. It felt like I stepped in a hole when it stretched. Nobody touched me or did I roll it. I've rolled a ankle in HS football (many years ago) so I know how that goes.
