Background Eccentric strength training can reduce hamstring strain injuries (HSIs), although a persistent neuromuscular inhibition after injury may reduce the trainability of this muscle group.

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 risk of future HSI ...

Eccentric training, particularly the Nordic hamstring exercise, can cut hamstring injuries by more than 50% when done regularly. This exercise puts the hamstrings under high force while they are ...

Hamstring rehabilitation exercises can aid recovery and help prevent future injuries. Rehabilitation protocols typically call for a combination of stretching and strengthening movements. While severe ...
