These are the bench marks we use with our players @Temple_FB to track their hamstring strength. We break our development groups into high needs, moderate needs, imbalance, body weight ratio and history groups. @VALDPerformance @the_NordBord

For some reason people tend to overlook sprintings role in the development of the hamstrings.
Strength work matters. Eccentrics matter. Hip extension work matters.
They build capacity, tolerance and robustness.
But sprinting is what exposes the hamstrings to
the highest

Braking demands for change of direction angles.
Not all CODs are created equal - make sure you train accordingly.
@DHMov explains how different angles create different demands in the context of deceleration.

Resisted sprints are important for two reasons:
1️⃣ Development of physical attributes
2️⃣ Development of a technical base

Context matters when reviewing GPS data. Two activities may show same numbers, but can induce different stressors centrally and/or peripherally. Collecting qualitative information about the nature of the work w/ observational notes can help tell the full story.

Resistance➡️very little to no effect on sprint mechanics⚠️when measured @ same running speed✅
Finally a well-designed study on the topic, i.e. not comparing mechanics under different loads...at different speeds (🍏&🍊)

"At high velocity (>7m/s or >26km/h), a 30% increase in running velocity leads to a 100% increase in hamstring muscle requirements"
