The Effects of a Soccer-Specific Fitness Test on Eccentric Knee Flexor Strength.

CONCLUSIONS: The results of this study indicate that the YYIR1 does not induce eccentric knee flexor fatigue and as such is not a valid assessment method to assess the effects of fatigue on hamstring function. However, results do suggest that the NordBord may be considered a viable and more accessible alternative to detect pre-post fitness test/fatigue protocol differences in eccentric knee flexor peak strength while working in the field.
