MUSCLE STRAINS
• AKA “Pulled” Muscle
• Common muscle strains associated with running sports include hip flexor, hamstring, and calf strains
• Generally occur when muscles are contracted forcefully during activities such as running, jumping,
kicking
• Proper warm up is essential prior to high level sport activities
