Razor hamstring curl and Nordic hamstring exercise architectural adaptations: Impact of exercise selection and intensity.

NHEweighted interventions induce large BFlh fascicle lengthening responses and these adaptations decay after just 1 week of detraining. NHEbodyweight training has a moderate impact on BFlh architecture while the RHCweighted group has the least. Weighted NHE and RHC training promoted exercise-specific increases in strength. These findings suggest that exercise selection and intensity should be considered when prescribing exercises aiming to increase eccentric strength and BFlh fascicle length.
