Background: Eccentric hamstring strength seems important in reducing the odds of future
hamstring injuries. While age and previous injury are well-known risk factors for future …

Background The Nordic hamstring exercise (NHE) reduces the risk of hamstring strain injury
(HSI). It is unknown if measuring eccentric hamstring strength during the NHE can predict …

Background Hamstring injuries are the most common muscle injury in male amateur soccer
players and have a high rate of recurrence, often despite extensive treatment and long …

Background: Hamstring strain injuries (HSIs) are the most common injury type in Australian
football, and the rate of recurrence has been consistently high for a number of years. Long …

Purpose: Are eccentric hamstring strength and between-limb imbalance in eccentric
strength, measured during the Nordic hamstring exercise, risk factors for hamstring strain …

The aim of this study was to determine whether the inclusion of a very low volume (1 set of 3
maximal repetitions) of eccentric-biased Nordic hamstring program of 21 weeks induced an …

Background: Hamstring injuries are the most common muscle injuries in soccer, and they
have a high rate of recurrence. Eccentric hamstrings strength is recognized as an important …

Clinical Scenario: Hamstring strains are a common sport-related injury, which may limit
athletic performance for an extended period of time. These injuries are common in the …

The primary purpose of this study was to evaluate whether a preseason strength training
programme for the hamstring muscle group–emphasising eccentric overloading–could affect …

Objective: To investigate the effectiveness of a 10-week hamstring exercise training program
in reducing the incidence and severity of new and recurrent hamstring injuries among male …
