    The BEST video I’ve seen on the subject. Had a grade 2 tear last Friday, and this is just the rehab protocolo I was looking for! Thank you!

      Hey man, I recently just had a grade 2 tear myself. I wanted to know based on you following this video how long it took you to fully recover and return back to full running?

    • @paladinsamuel
      @paladinsamuel ปีที่แล้ว +7

      @@zkcfactory4840 Glad to say it did only take 4 weeks… to get back to 90-95%. Recovering the remaining 5% has been more mentally challenging. The soft tissue would probably hold… but now I feel that, before I try it again, achieving full ROM in the nordic curl is a “prerequisite”. Such a standard is great for injury prevention (check out Ben Patrick), and would grant me the extra confidence to rectify my 100%.
      Also worth noting that I took it easy after 8 weeks. So I assume a more continued approach would yield better results.
      This is an excellent protocol. I ran less than specified due to my recovery rate, but still made huge progress in just a month.
      I wish you a full and wise recovery, friend! And when in doubt, rest some more 👌🏽

    Strained my hamstring about 2 weeks ago (grade 1-2) Starting to run around 50%-65% and strengthen carefully. This video has AMAZING stuff, not generic .. hits a wide spectrum of rehab capabilities. Love the mobility and lengthening focus vs just strength. I am a very strong athlete and I believe my injury was due to lack of mobility. I need to be more mobile and strong in my specific sprinting positions to avoid re-injury.

    • @justusadams6837
      @justusadams6837 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I pulled it many times, but what I learned looking back at my track career was that I was too heavy. I was around 190lbs sprinting over hurdles. I was already lean but had a lot of muscle (I love the gym lol). But it is not worth it for sprinting. If you can loose safely 5-10lbs and maintain same strength this will allow your hamstring to be less taxed. @@reaperthe6503

    • @justusadams6837
      @justusadams6837 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Your situation may be different, but half the battle is mental. It is important to keep your head up and do not be afraid to test the hamstring here and there with exercises in the gym (physio ball kicks, nordic hamstring, etcs) You definitely want to do exercises that carry over to the track. Icing on the cake would be practice mobility and hydrate well! Do hamstring exercises OFTEN, but don't over do it to where it affects your running. Eventually your body adjusts to frequency and once you establish good strength you can slowly back off on the volume and prioritize it just a couple times a week. Hope something out of this helps, best of luck!@@reaperthe6503

    • @justusadams6837
      @justusadams6837 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      One last thing... you want to push yourself hard on hamstring exercises in the gym so then it transfer over to the track. If you go hard and get lactic in the gym with your hamstring fatiguing you will worry less once you spike up on the track. Mental fortitude! @@reaperthe6503

    Hey, im about 3 weeks post injury. Do you have any advice if everything is pain free except for the hip extension exercises (nordic curl)? Every other exercise I can advance to the weighted variation without any pain but even the simplest variation of the nordic curl is giving pain right at the top of my hamstring. Would you maintain the weighted variation of every other exercise and just stick to level 1 for the nordic curl until it doesnt give pain?

    I'm struggling with my lateral (high) hamstring when i'm sprinting. More specifically during late swing phase, it's not really pain but more a 'stretch' sensation. I did all these exercises without pain but it's not really coming together when sprinting. The only exercise when I feel the recognizable sensation is when i'm lying in the doorpost with my leg extended and elevated or doing hip flexion in combination with knee extension on a skateboard. Could it be beneficial do to isometrics in these positions? Or is this just too much stretch? Thank you!
