The effect of hamstring flexibility on peak hamstring muscle strain in sprinting

Journal of Sport and Health Science, 2017
Background: The effect of hamstring flexibility on the peak hamstring muscle strains in sprinting, until now, remained unknown, which limited our understanding of risk factors of hamstring muscle strain injury (hamstring injury). As a continuation of our

Sonographic landmarks in hamstring muscles. [PDF]

Skeletal Radiol, 2019
The ultrasound examination of hamstrings inspires respect due to the connective complexity of their structures, particularly for sonographers who are not used to this kind of study. Therefore, it is important to know the specific ultrasound reference points that facilitate the location of the hamstring structures, dividing them into four areas of ...
