[en] Hamstring muscles (HM) strength testing is commonly used in practice to help better prevent/rehabilitate any strength’s weakness but : no insight into the participation of medial (MH) and lateral (LH) hamstring muscle groups to the strength results itself.
Imbalance between HMgroups = lower performance + higher injury risk,
Underestimation of an abnormal stength or activation deficit (compensation),
Tibial rotations is helpful to target more specifically the MH/LH groups : No reference during a dynamic strength assessment of the knee flexion strength and the muscular activity of MH/LH groups
