Effect of Hamstring Stretching on Hamstring Muscle Performance
Journal of Orthopaedic & Sports Physical Therapy, 1994The relationship between hamstring flexibility and hamstring muscle performance has not been reported. The purposes of this study were 1) to determine the most effective stretching method for increasing hamstring flexibility and 2) to determine the effects of increasing hamstring flexibility on isokinetic peak torque.

Hamstring Muscle Complex: An Imaging Review [PDF]
RadioGraphics, 2005 Increasing activity in the general population and the high demands placed on athletes have resulted in injuries to the hamstring muscle complex (HMC) being commonplace in sports. Imaging of HMC injuries can form a considerable part of a sports medicine practice, with a wide spectrum of such injuries being reflected in their varied imaging appearances ...

Hamstring muscle strain is the most prevalent injury in Australian Rules Football, accounting for 16% of play ing time missed as a result of injury. Thirty-seven pro fessional footballers from an Australian Football League team had preseason measurements of ham string and quadriceps muscle concentric peak torque at 60, 180, and 300 deg/sec measured on

Device for Stretching the Hamstring Muscles
Physical Therapy, 1985If a patient's hamstring muscles are of inadequate length, his ability to perform or the manner in which he performs various functional maneuvers may be altered. A number of methods for stretching the hamstring muscles have, therefore, been described or recommended.1–4 Of the muscle stretching techniques practiced by clinicians, the most effective are ...

TRANSPLANTATION OF THE HAMSTRING MUSCLES IN CEREBRAL PALSY
The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. British volume, 19671 . A ten-year study of fifty-four operations for transplantation of the hamstring muscles in thirty-one spastic patients has been made. 2. Twenty-one patients were improved after operation, six were not improved, and in four the duration of follow-up was too short for proper assessment. One patient died from other causes. 3.

Hamstring muscle injury is common among athletes and can range in severity from mild strains to complete ruptures of the hamstring muscle complex. Injury to the hamstring muscles is commonly sustained during eccentric contraction of the muscle while running or stretching carried out to extreme joint positions.

Architectural differences between the hamstring muscles
Journal of Electromyography and Kinesiology, 2012The purpose of this study was to understand the detailed architectural properties of the human hamstring muscles. The long (BFlh) and short (BFsh) head of biceps femoris, semimembranosus (SM) and semitendinosus (ST) muscles were dissected and removed from their origins in eight cadaveric specimens (age 67.8±4.3 years).

Rupture of the Ischial Origin of the Hamstring Muscles
The American Journal of Sports Medicine, 1995We treated eight patients who had complete rupture of the ischial origin of the hamstring muscles. This uncom mon injury results from a sudden forceful flexion of the hip joint when the knee is extended and the hamstring muscles powerfully contracted.

Abstract Purpose We determined the relationship between hamstring injury and hamstring length in a prospective analysis of adolescent football players as well as assessing the impact of age and test type upon hamstring length. Method One hundred and eleven footballers (9–19 years old) volunteered after subject and parental/guardian consent ...

Computed tomography of hamstring muscle strains
Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, 1989Acute hamstring muscle strains occurring in ten college athletes were evaluated using computed tomography to identify the location and characteristics of these common injuries. Acute muscle strains appeared as areas of hypodensity within the muscle 1-2 d following injury.
