Intervention components, training dose, and adherence in exercise-based prevention of hamstring strain injury in football: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Key Points
The study aims to evaluate how different components of exercise-based programmes affect hamstring strain injury risk and adherence in football players.
Conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of existing literature
Analyzed various exercise programme types and intervention components
Assessed adherence levels and programme duration in relation to injury prevention
Exercise-based programmes significantly reduce hamstring strain injury risk in football
Shorter interventions show stronger effects in elite footballers
Insufficient evidence to distinctly categorize different programme types or components
Abstract
Exercise-based programmes reduce HSI risk in football when implementation supports sustained adherence. Effects may be stronger in shorter interventions and elite populations, but evidence remains insufficient to differentiate programme types or components.
