Abstract:
<p>Background: Acute hamstring strains are common injuries in different sports. They are often serious, causing long rehabilitation times and a proneness for re-injury. Preliminary observations indicate that the injuries can be of at least two types, one occurring during high-speed running and the other during motions where the hamstring muscles reach extreme lengths.</p><p>Aims: To investigate the possible existence of different types of acute hamstring strains in two specific athletic groups, namely sprinters and dancers, as well as the generality of these findings in other sports.</p><p>Met

Increased relative risk of non-contact anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury has been attributed to numerous biomechanical, anatomical and neuromuscular factors. Females are at greater relative risk of non-contact ACL injury compared with males.

It is difficult to directly measure knee stability; however the eccentric ability of the hamstrings to co-contract to counter the torque produced by concentric quadriceps actions during knee extension is important in stabilising
