Alternative Methods of Determining Hamstrings-to-Quadriceps Ratios: a Comprehensive Review
Sports Medicine - Open, 2019 The hamstrings-to-quadriceps muscle strength ratio calculated by peak torque has been used as an important tool to detect muscle imbalance, monitor knee joint stability, describe muscle strength properties and functionality, and for lower extremity ...

Acta Universitatis Carolinae Kinanthropologica, 2019 The purpose of the present study was to examine the effects of long term (prolonged) football training on maximal oxygen uptake (V̇O2) and isokinetic muscle strength in young football players and untrained boys of the same biological age. Twenty football

Hamstring Strain Injury Rehabilitation [PDF]
Journal of Athletic Training, 2021 Hamstring strain injuries are common among athletes and often require rehabilitation to prepare players for a timely return to sport performance while also minimizing reinjury risk. Return to sport is typically achieved within weeks of the injury; however, subsequent athlete performance may be impaired, and reinjury rates are high.

Hamstring Stretching and Posture [PDF]
Physical Therapy, 1997 To the Editor: I read with interest the article by Li et al entitled “The Effect of Hamstring Muscle Stretching on Standing Posture and on Lumbar and Hip Motions During Forward Bending,” the invited commentaries by Drs Sahrmann and Snyder-Mackler, and the authors' response (August 1996). I commend the authors for their efforts.

Different muscle action training protocols on quadriceps hamstrings neuromuscular adaptations [PDF]
, 2018 The aim of this study was to compare three specific concentric and eccentric muscle action training protocols on quadricepshamstrings neuromuscular adaptations. Forty male volunteers performed 6 weeks of training (two sessions/week) of their dominant and

Regional Differences in Biceps Femoris Long Head Stiffness during Isometric Knee Flexion
Journal of Functional Morphology and Kinesiology, 2021 This study sought to investigate whether the stiffness of the biceps femoris long head differs between proximal and distal regions during isometric knee flexion at different contraction intensities and muscle lengths. Twelve healthy individuals performed
