    Area of Science:

    • Biomechanics
    • Sports Science
    • Athletic Performance

    Background:

    • Sprint kinematics are critical for both athletic performance and hamstring injury risk.
    • Understanding how to modify these kinematics is essential for athlete development and injury prevention.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the effects of a 6-week multimodal intervention on sprint kinematics and performance.
    • To determine if combining lumbopelvic control and running technique exercises alters pelvis and lower-limb movement patterns at maximal speed.

    Main Methods:

    • Healthy amateur athletes were divided into a control and an intervention group (IG).
    • A 6-week program for the IG included integrated coaching, strength and conditioning, and physical therapy.
    • Sprint tests with 3D kinematic analysis were conducted before and after the intervention period.

    Main Results:

    • The intervention group (IG) demonstrated significant improvements in sprint performance (split times).
    • Key kinematic changes in the IG included altered pelvic tilt and obliquity, higher knee position, increased thigh angular and retraction velocity, and reduced ground contact time.
    • Significant differences in kinematic variables were observed between the intervention and control groups post-intervention.

    Conclusions:

    • A 6-week multimodal training program effectively modified pelvic and lower-limb kinematics during maximal speed sprinting.
    • These kinematic alterations are associated with enhanced sprint performance and may contribute to a reduced risk of hamstring muscle strain.
