As part of this masterclass episode focusing on hamstring injuries, I am speaking to Dave Opar, Anthony Shield, Lachlan Wilmot, Ben Ashworth and Matt Taberner. After the great success of the sprint masterclass episode, velocity based training masterclass episode and the training load masterclass episode I decided to continue with the structure and pick out some of the best bits around the topic of hamstring injuries. It was great to listen to these guys again, talking about Nordics, Nordics and Nordics as well as return to play post injury, alternatives to Nordics and injury prevention strategies in the field. Enjoy.
