Résumé
Improvements in hamstring injury risk management strategies are necessary, especially in sports requiring ‘sprinting’ (ie, maximal acceleration and/or velocity). Sprinting represents about two-thirds of hamstring injury mechanisms.1 Several sprinting-related parameters are associated with hamstring injuries.Thus, this editorial aims to (1) emphasise the importance of sprinting and (2) provide general principles for practical implementation of sprinting interventions as a component of hamstring injury risk management in primary and secondary prevention.
