Featured Application Knee injuries, such as an anterior cruciate ligament tear, may occur
when there are deficits in the hamstring and quadriceps strength as the force production of …

The objectives of this study were to report weight-normalized, sex-and sport-stratified
normative values for hamstrings and quadriceps isometric strength in collegiate soccer and …

Objectives To investigate the relationship between one eccentric and two isometric tests
commonly used to assess hamstring strength in professional soccer. Settings Professional …

Modifiable risk factors for hamstring injury include lack of strength, fatigue and muscle
strength asymmetry. Assessing lower body strength in the field is problematic as “gold …

Objectives To investigate the relationships between handheld dynamometer (HHD),
isokinetic and Nordic hamstrings exercise (NHE) measurements of knee flexor strength and …

Purpose: Increasing age, high quadriceps strength, and low hamstring muscle strength are
associated with hamstring strain injury in soccer. The authors investigated the age-related …

Purpose The muscle strength of the hamstrings is often reported as asymmetric in footballers
and is associated with the occurrence of muscle injuries. Therefore, discriminating …

Abstract Background/Objective Evaluating hamstring strength by isokinetic dynamometry is
limited by various practical issues such as time and cost. A video-based Nordic hamstring …

Objectives Hamstring strain injuries are common in sprint-based activities and multifactorial.
One of the main risk factors is the deficit of hamstring eccentric strength, which is not easily …

Background The study aimed to examine alterations and imbalances in hamstring muscle
contractile properties among young football players throughout their competitive season …
