Comparison of Two Techniques for Maintaining Range of Motion

"SSubjects will be refrained from maximum-effort or new routines for exercise the day before each treatment.Static stretching of hamstring on whole body vibration will include Pre- and post-test active and passive ROM for the both legs, with subjects first undergoing a 5-minute warm-up on a stationary bicycle. The traditional static stretch consisted of a supine active knee extension on whole body vibration (WBV) at 30 Hz at the high amplitude setting will be performed. The stretch will be held at the point of the onset of discomfort 3 times each for 30 seconds, with a 20-second rest period between each stretch. Participants will stretch for 4 days per week for 4 weeks. Active hamstring ROM will be measured via active knee extension using a goniometer with the leg in 90° of hip flexion, with the opposite leg extended. Passive ROM will be measured via clinician-assist ted knee extension with the leg in 90° of hip flexion."

In second group, strength training will be done for 4 days per week for 4 days. Subjects will have 5 minutes warm up. In 1st week, the protocol will be Nordic hamstring curl (NHC) with bend (3 sets of 8 reps), Prone hamstrings curl (4 sets of 12 reps/leg), Physio-ball leg curl (3 sets of 8 reps), Glute bridge (2 sets of 50 s/leg). In 2nd to 4th week, the protocol will be NHC with bend (3 sets of 12 reps) Prone hamstrings curl (3 sets of 14 reps/leg) Physio-ball leg curl (3 sets of 10 reps) Glute bridge (2 sets of 50 s/leg). There will be 30 seconds rest between each set and 1 minute rest between each exercise . Pre and post AROM and PROM will be measured. Active hamstring ROM will be measured via active knee extension using a goniometer with the leg in 90° of hip flexion, with the opposite leg extended. Passive ROM will be measured via clinician-assisted knee extension with the leg in 90° of hip flexion.
