Episode 91: For this second Research Unpacked style episode Alistair McKenzie chats to Dr Andras Hegyi a post-doctoral researcher at the University of Nantes, France. For part two Alistair and Andras continue discussing his hamstring muscle research.
Part two topics discussed:
- Regional differences in a various of hamstring exercises typically used in rehab and strength and conditioning
- Overall muscle activity vs between muscle activation vs within-muscle differences
- Perspectives on hamstring training for sprint performance and injury rehab – what are we trying to achieve?
- The affect if velocity on muscle activity
- Clinical implications and from both studies and how they may influence decision making when prescribing exercises
- Future research
