Hamstring rehab is more than just getting back to running. 🏃‍♂️
Recently, at one of our in-house education sessions our whole clinical team discussed recent research in hamstring rehabilitation.
After a hamstring strain, flexibility and range of motion often return within 3–7 weeks — but strength deficits can remain well after an athlete is cleared to play.

A recent study compared 7 common rehab exercises based on:
✔️ Hamstring stretch demands
✔️ Hamstring force demands
…and compared them to the loads experienced during running and sprinting.

Key findings 👇
🔹 Hip Thrusts
Low force + low stretch
➡️ Great option in early-stage rehab

🔹 Nordic Hamstring Exercises & Eccentric Sliders
Higher force with minimal stretch
➡️ Useful during mid-stage progression

🔹 Romanian Deadlifts (RDLs) & Hamstring Bridges
Highest force + highest stretch
➡️ Can exceed sprinting demands and help prepare athletes for high-speed return to play

Learnings
Progressive loading matters. Resistance training exercises can provide valuable benchmarks alongside jogging, running and sprinting milestones during return-to-play rehabilitation. Well-planned rehab should gradually expose the hamstrings to increasing force and muscle length demands - not just running speed.

Winter sport is here, get ahead early and build a strength buffer with some targeted & individualised prehab!

This was kind of both Hafiz & Aaron to think of us while busy winning cricket tournaments - we look forward to seeing Aaron when he next comes to Albany!

"Australia all-rounder Aaron Hardie starred with bat and ball as Peshawar Zalmi beat Hyderabad Kingsmen to win their second Pakistan Super League title.

Hardie took 4-27 as Kingsmen were bowled out for 129, then top-scored with an unbeaten 56 as Peshawar chased down 130 with 28 balls to spare."

Our physiotherapist Hafiz has been away for a while, working he says, but by the look of his photos from the Pakistan Premier League Cricket competition there are some social engagements too! His team Peshawar Zalmi are top of the table currently, no doubt partly due to his wealth of physiotherapy experience. He will be back seeing clients here in Albany from 11 May.
