Cool case & It happens more often than we think…. In fact some references would quote the hamstring re-injury rate between 5-60% depending on injury severity and location/tissue affected @SportsmithHQ. Can we afford to go blind through the hamstring rehab? #kisoinmotion

⚡️Hamstring EMG during posterior chain exercises! 🔋

🧐Your rehabbing a player, who has progressed well , hit key markers (strength/volume/speed) and is preparing to return to play.

But your EMG during various double and single leg hamstring exercises suggest low long head activation.

Does it matter?

This morning I have been writing for my mentees on hamstrings return to play, nordics and why they fail to solve many hamstring issues. It got me thinking about the wave of uncomfortable people @BooSchex has made recently.

It also reminded me of an old Pfaffism (quote from @PfaffSC)

“Hamstring injuries happen because they fire too early, too late or too long”

The research is clear on what Nordics do , what muscles and functions they support and the areas they do not support.

Soon we will run a workshop to illustrate this and more. Looking forward to more debate, discussion and myth busting in Ireland!

I am joining @EatSleepTrain_ in @sscsportsmed in April for a rehab day!! Only taking a small group to make it relevant & highly interactive!! Book now to avoid disappointment. This is a must-CPD day for those who want to learn more about rehab & Jonas’ speed framework!!!

Jonas Dodoo @EatSleepTrain_ Feb 3, 2025

Acceleration and Lumbo-pelvic control!

What should it look like?

What does it feel like?

What can you do, to coach it?

What can you to train and transfer it to performance?

Join me at West Ham Academy and in Dublin with @edumias @SSCSantry to find out more!

I have received a few questions about sEMG (not to confuse with EMS or electro-muscle stimulation). I have attached a couple of images which will hopefully explain the point behind what we called optimised rehabilitation with sEMG. 1/5

"Post-ACL reconstruction, one of the biggest challenges is the significant quadriceps inhibition. With sEMG, we could measure how much muscle activation we were getting from certain exercises versus others; this was very valuable"

Thank you @SportsmithHQ for encouraging me to write up what initially was another player journey through the rehab and turned into a massive dive and discovery of the possibilities of AI and sEMG in the sports medicine rehabilitation area. These 2 technologies...
