Abstract
BACKGROUND: The person’s ability to move without any difficulty is mainly depends upon flexibility. Hamstrings are related to such a muscle group which has ability that their flexibility can be reduced due to many factors. Prolonged sitting position which is adopted in many work places, educational institutions and sedentary daily lives are related to hamstring muscle tightness. After a long period of sitting or inactivity, people develop tight hamstrings because of negative biomechanical and physiological effects, as Static forces absorb more energy than dynamic movements to maintain the body immobile while resisting gravity. Presently there is a limited literature on hamstring tightness among college going students and there is a paucity of literature on the effectiveness of non ballistic active knee extension on hamstring muscles tightness. So the study aimed to find out the effect of non ballistic active knee extension on improving hamstring flexibility among college going students METHODS: Quasi experimental study design. Hamstring tightness prevalence study was conducted through active knee extension test among college going students. The participants of the study include 120 students with average age of 21 with hamstring tightness and they received non ballistic active knee extension for 6 weeks intervention total 30 sessions and 6 weeks follow up. The outcome measure of this intervention was an active knee extension test to test the popliteal angle. RESULTS: Anova test was used to assess the statistical significance difference within the pre- test , post - test and follow up. Statistical analysis of the data revealed that there was a significant difference within pre - test, post - test and follow up which results non ballistic active knee extension showed an improvement in hamstring flexibility among college going students. CONCLUSION: The present study concluded that non ballistic active knee extension was effective in improving hamstring flexibility among college going students and it was not effective in maintaining the long-term effects.
