Journal ArticleDOI
Risk factors for hamstring muscle strain injury in sport: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Grant Freckleton,Tania Pizzari +1 more
TL;DR: The aim of the current review was to assemble all available knowledge and data to identify the intrinsic and extrinsic risk factors associated with hamstring muscle strain-type injuries.
Journal ArticleDOI
An Evidence-Based Framework for Strengthening Exercises to Prevent Hamstring Injury
Matthew N. Bourne,Ryan G. Timmins,David A. Opar,Tania Pizzari,Joshua D Ruddy,Casey Sims,Morgan D. Williams,Anthony J. Shield +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, an evidence-based approach to strength training for the prevention of hamstring strain injury should consider the impact of exercise selection on muscle activation, and the effect of training interventions on hamstring muscle architecture, morphology and function.
Journal ArticleDOI
Recalibrating the risk of hamstring strain injury (HSI) - A 2020 systematic review and meta-analysis of risk factors for index and recurrent HSI in sport
TL;DR: Older age and a history of HSI are the strongest risk factors for HSI and factors relating to sports performance and match play, running and hamstring strength were most consistently associated with HSI risk.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantifying ‘normal’ shoulder muscle activity during abduction
TL;DR: The most reproducible patterns of activation arose from the more prime mover muscle sites in all EMG variables analysed and although variability was present, there emerged 'invariant characteristics' that were considered 'normal' for this group of non pathological shoulders.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gluteus medius : an intramuscular EMG investigation of anterior, middle and posterior segments during gait.
TL;DR: The data indicate that GMed is composed of three functionally independent segments, which contributes to the theoretical understanding of the role of GMed.
