It's usually very
common in soccer to add it as part of the training program because of the high instance of
hamstring injuries and the effectiveness of preventing those injuries with these
exercises.
This two -
exercise combination hits the
hamstrings as the
common denominator.
Few studies have directly compared
hamstrings EMG amplitude across a range of
common rehabilitation
exercises (Cook et al. 1992; Graham et al. 1993; Ayotte et al. 2007; Begalle et al. 2012; Orishimo et al. 2015; Youdas et al. 2015; Tsaklis et al. 2015).
Several studies have found that the medial and lateral
hamstrings display differences in EMG amplitude in response to
common resistance training
exercises (Fiebert et al. 2001; Escamilla et al. 2002; Lynn & Costigan, 2009; Simenz et al. 2012; Jakobsen et al. 2012; Zebis et al. 2013; McAllister et al. 2014).
