Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Indian long-distance runners both male and female Athlete trained for not less than 6 months and 2-3 years of experience History of hamstring strain injury of only one side. History of no hamstring strain injury.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Any musculoskeletal pathology affecting their lower leg in the last six months History of any knee surgery. Any on-going rehabilitation for hamstring injury Any surgery in the lower limb in the last 6 months

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
1)To identify the potential physical, psychological, anthropometric and functional risk factors for hamstring strains in runners. Timepoint: Total duration of study is 1 year. in first 3 months, 50 athletes will be assessed to determine the risk factors associated with hamstring injury. Will be assessed SIC physiotherapy department to determine the risk factors of hamstring injury.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1)To develop an equation for prediction of hamstring strain in runners. 2) To identify and compare peak torque in previously injured hamstring with uninjured hamstring.Timepoint: In 3 months, statistical analysis will be done, based on which equation will be derived to predict the risk of hamstring injury. Further peak torque of injured and non injured players will be analysed to identify the strength deficit
