Summary

The aim of this research is to study the role of hip flexor strength in the act of particular movement tasks generally required in cricket. In young cricket players, hip flexor training protocol may be productive in improving the acceleration time of sprint and shuttle run.

It was a Randomized Controlled Trial conducted in National Cricket Academy Lahore, Lahore zonal Cricket Academy, Multan High Performance Cricket Centre during 6 months. 30 participants were selected through Non Probability Convenience Sampling Technique with inclusion criteria Female cricket players involved in their training programs aged 17-25 years and Participants should be bodily active before the start of trial for minimum 30 minutes a day for 5 days of week.

OTHER

Hip flexor resistance protocol

Warm up prior to training The loop bands (Resistance-band©) that were used are in several colors-Red, black, yellow, blue and green extended from strongest type to weakest. Athletes executed 3 training sessions of 3 sets per week for 6 weeks. The relative load was: Week 1----15 RM Week 2-4----10 RM Week 5-6----8 RM The Therapist has ensured a concentric contraction of 3-s, an isometric contraction of 2-s, eccentric contraction of 3-s, rest for 2-s prior to the next repetition and rest for 2-min prior the next set.
