Why the study?
The influence of field hamstring eccentric exercises on muscle strength imbalances and poor flexibility, which are risk factors for hamstring injury, remains unclear.
Does a 6-week field hamstring eccentric training program improve muscle strength and flexibility in amateur athletes?
Does a 6-week field hamstring eccentric training program improve muscle strength and flexibility in amateur athletes?
A 6-week field hamstring eccentric training program effectively improves eccentric strength, functional ratios, and passive flexibility in amateur athletes.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
May improve eccentric strength and passive flexibility in amateurs; leaves open injury prevention effects.
