Summary

Frequent sports events causing more injuries in athletes causing decline in their performance. Injuries around knee joint are common. Strength training of hamstring and quadriceps are effective tool in rehabilitation. The multi-speeds and multi-angles strength training plans were used to see the effects on symptoms and performance in athletes.

Conditions

  • Knee Injuries

Interventions

OTHER

isometric strength training and isokinetic strength training

Isokinetic strength program included strength training at 5 different velocities from slow to fast. Participants were trained on speed of 30°/sec, 90°/sec, 150°/sec, 210°/sec and 270°/sec. Flexion and extension movements were completed with 5 repetitions at each speed. Participants of isometric strength training group performed isometric contractions at 30°, 45° and 60° of knee flexion with five repetitions at each angle for both hamstring and quadriceps.
