Database for Study: Kinematic and electromyographic analysis of variations in Nordic hamstring exercise.

This is a dataset from a study that aimed to biomechanically evaluate several variations of<br> the Nordic hamstring exercise (NHE), achieved by altering the slope of the lower leg support<br> and by maintaining different hip flexion positions throughout exercise. Electromyographic<br> and 2D kinematic measurements were performed during 6 variations of the NHE on a sample<br> of 18 young adults with previous experience in resistance training. Our results show that<br> it is reasonable to use the presented variations of the NHE in the context of optimizing<br> individual fitted training programs for strength training aiming at hamstring injury prevention<br> and rehabilitation.
