Hamstring Strain

Hamstring injuries the Hamstring are a group of muscles located on the back of the thigh. Muscles of the hamstrings are semimembranosus, semitendinosus, biceps femoris, long head and a short head. The proximal end of the hamstring muscle originate from the ischial tuberosity of the pelvis. The Hamstring come out from the ischial of the pelvis and it is closed to static nerve and innervated by the static nerve. Hamstrings Strain a muscle pull so the fibers that makeup one of the 3 hamstring muscles.

Exercises For Recovery : Hamstring Strain

Bent Leg Hamstring Stretch | Global Health

Bent Leg Hamstring Stretch

Step 1 : Lie on your back bend one knee.

Step 2 : Pull the leg over keeping the knee very slightly bent until a gentle stretch is felt at the back of the leg. Perform 3 sets of 10 seconds once or twice a day.

Bridging | Global Health

Bridging

Step 1 : Lie on the ground and bend the knees, placing the feet flat on the floor hip-width apart. Press the feet into the floor, keeping the arms by the sides.

Step 2 : Raise the buttocks off the ground until the body forms a straight line from the shoulders to the knees. Squeeze the buttocks with the shoulders remaining on the floor.

Step 3 : Lower the buttocks to the ground and rest for a few seconds. Repeat 15 times and then rest for 1 minute. Do 3 sets of 15 repetitions.

Dynamic Hamstring Stretch | Global Health

Dynamic Hamstring Stretch

Step 1 : Sit with one leg extended and the other leg folded behind with your foot towards your glutes.

Step 2 : Fold over at the waist and reach for the shin or the foot.

Step 3 : Roll back up to the seated position. Repeat with the other leg.

Hamstring Catches | Global Health

Hamstring Catches

Step 1 : Stay relaxed as your leg falls under the influence of gravity.

Step 2 : Only contract the hamstring muscles to prevent the foot landing. Again begin with 1 set of 10 reps and build up each day to 3 sets of 15 reps.

Standing Hamstring Stretch | Global Health

Standing Hamstring Stretch

Step 1 : Place your right foot on an elevated surface at or below your hip level. This could be a chair, ottoman, or step on a staircase. Flex your foot so your toes and leg are straight. If your knee tends to hyperextend, keep a slight bend in it.

Step 2 : Bend your body forward slightly toward your foot. The further you go, the deeper the stretch. Don’t push so far that you feel pain.

Step 3 : Release the hip of your raised leg downward as opposed to lifting it up. If you need help easing your hip down, loop a yoga strap or long exercise band over your right thigh and under your left foot. Hold for at least 30 seconds, then repeat on the other side.

Recommendation and Precautions for Hamstring Strain

Recommendation and Precautions for Hamstring Strain

  • Typically to prevent injuries do stretching.
  • Run and jog to get the blood circulating throughout the muscles get on muscle warm, then actually stretch the muscle and the benefits from that are much better.
