With the AFL and NRL seasons well under way, the hamstring testing kit is the perfect kit to predict and monitor injuries and recovery time by measuring the hamstring strain. This allows for a comparable database to be created enabling athletes to monitor their performance over time. Predicting the hamstring strain as well as monitoring the athlete’s performance is essential because it reduces the loss time as well as the high recurrence rates.

The hamstring testing kit, distributed by Applied Measurement Australia Pty Ltd and endorsed by the Australian Institute of Sport (AIS) is a compact, easy to use kit providing “real time” highly accurate measurements for athletes in elite sports such as the AFL and NRL to name a few. The hamstring kit was used by both AFL and NRL premiership champions in 2016 during their historic wins and most importantly, was employed by the AIS in their white paper aimed at investigating performance of elite youth football players.
