Filter by:The aim of the present study is to analyze if there is a biomechanical relationship between trunk flexion and buccal opening and to observe if there is an improvement of trunk flexion by performing the "sit and reach" test when stretching the masticatory muscles.
In the realm of sports performance, particularly in disciplines demanding explosive lower-body strength and agility, such as basketball, an athlete's ability to execute powerful and high-reaching jumps plays a pivotal role. Optimal lower-extremity flexibility, particularly in the hamstrings, is crucial for achieving maximum vertical jump height. Hamstring shortness, characterized by limited flexibility and reduced muscle extensibility, is frequently observed among athletes and has been linked to compromised jump performance.
The aim of this study protocol is to describe the rationale and methodology for evaluating the effect of using therapeutic exercises and ultrasound in the rehabilitation of partially injured hamstring muscles on elite football players.
The aim of this study is to: 1. Compare trunk muscle performance between sprinters with and without HSI history 2. Investigate whether running speed influences the differences on trunk muscle activity between these two groups
The goal of this clinical trial is to analyse the effect of an intervention program based on hamstring flexibility on the extensibility and curvatures of the spine in dancers. Participants will be dance student with ten years of experience that will undergo a program of stretching four times per week during seven weeks, followed by a detraining period, and a retraining period of three weeks. There will be a pre-test, a post-test and two re-tests after the intervention. The results will be compared with a control group of dancers that will not take part in the stretching program.
This study aims to compare the effect of two hamstring strengthening programs on hamstring muscle strength in female university athletes. 60 participants will be recruited for this study. They will be randomly assigned to one of two 6-week hamstring strengthening programs, namely the single leg bridge exercise and the Nordic hamstring exercise protocol, and one control group. Eccentric and isometric hamstring strength, gluteal strength and will sprint speed will be measured before and after the intervention.
The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to check the effectiveness of post isometric relaxation and post facilitation stretching on hamstring muscle flexibility in collegiate athletes. The main question it aims to answer is: - To compare the post isometric relaxation and post facilitation stretching techniques on hamstring muscle flexibility in collegiate athletes Participants were divided in two groups, - Group-A was treated with baseline treatment of heating for 15min and rehab protocol post isometric relaxation in which 3-5 repetitions for 7-10 seconds hold in each session for three sessions per week in alternate days for four weeks. - Group-B was treated with baseline treatment of heating for 15min and rehab protocol post facilitation in which 3-5 repetitions for 7-10 seconds hold in each session for three sessions per week in alternate days for four weeks.
The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of blood flow restriction applied during nordic hamstring exercise on neuromuscular activation and endothelial function.
The sedentary lifestyle of today's world, prolonged time period of sitting during office hours and educational setups do have an effect on the flexibility of bi-articular muscles. Hamstring flexibility is a significant variable as decreased extensibility has been suggested as a prejudicing feature for injuries, poor posture and non-specific low back pain.Active Release Technique (ART) is a soft tissue method that focuses on relieving tissue tension via the removal of fibrosis/adhesions which can develop in tissues as a result of overload due to repetitive use. These disorders may lead to muscular weakness, numbness, aching, tingling and burning sensations. ART has been reported to be both a diagnostic and a treatment technique.Mulligan's bent leg raise (BLR) is a stretching technique which is a modern progression in the treatment of hamstring tightness. It is indicated in hamstring tightness patients with backache having restricted or painful straight leg raise (SLR), leg pain above knee and it is very beneficial in the patients having gross bilateral limitations of straight leg raise. It stretches the lower extremity muscles in combination of hamstring, adductors and rotators
The goal of this study is to explore the intervention effect of home-based neurodynamic slider program on hamstring flexibility. Fifty physically active male subjects will be randomly assigned to either performing a neurodynamic sliding technique (3x20 reps) or a static stretching protocol (3x30") on a daily basis for a 6-week period. Hamstring flexibility will be assessed by means of the Straight Leg Raise at baseline, immediately after the intervention and after 4 weeks follow up.
