MPS and Collagen Synthesis do go hand in hand.

Strength training increases tendon stiffness (and collagen density), which is a good thing. They become more resistant to deformation.

More energy stored = more energy released

More resistance to deformation = less likely to be overloaded and tear

Programs involving Isometrics preferentially build tendon stiffness when compared to dynamic training.

Programs involving high loads preferentially build tendon strength and stiffness when compared to lower load repetitive stress training.

To that point repetitive stress low load training may negatively effect some tendon properties and should probably be paired with some specific tendon strengthening programs.
