As a coach, AT, and PT, it is always important to keep learning and reinforcing methodologies and bases. In this case, we wanted to share with you this interesting article about the inertial flywheel knee and hip-dominant hamstring strength exercises in professional soccer players and how it affects muscle use and velocity-based eccentric overload.

This study had two objectives in mind:

• Analyze mechanical responses during intertial knee-and hip-dominant hamstring strengthening exercises
• Measure and compare regional muscle use using functional magnetic resonance imaging.

This is a study that physiotherapists and strength and conditioning coaches should consider when optimizing the training and recovery process for hamstring muscles, especially after an injury.

Accordingly to the article, it is important for prescribing a strengthening program for preventing hamstring injuries in soccer players. In addition, these findings could be crucial in reducing or eliminating residual atrophy of the BFl and hypertrophy of the BFs in previously injured muscle and
probably minimizing the risk of re-injury. The reason for this could be that in training
with this exercise, the impact is mainly focused on the proximal and medial region of the atrophied BFl, with no influence on hypertrophied BFs.

This is an interesting article to learn some of the benefits of the inertial flywheel equipment and its effects on soccer players.
