Objectives

Narrative objectives1

The purpose of this study will be to investigate if hamstring stretching with maintenance of lumbar lordosis increases relative flexibility of hamstring to the back better than jack-knife hamstring stretching for those with reduction of relative flexibility of hamstring to the back.

Assessment

Primary outcomes

Relative flexibility of hamstring to the back will be assessed with the degree of lumbar lordosis when a knee is fully extended in sitting. The prevalence of low back pain will be assessed with a self-reporting questionnaire. Evaluation will be performed at the time of participant's inclusion and 5 weeks after the intervention.

Interventions/Control_1

Participants in the jack-knife hamstring stretching group will do jack-knife hamstring stretching for 5 weeks (15 seconds x 4 repetitions/set x 3 sets/day) at home.

Interventions/Control_2

Participants in the hamstring stretching with maintenance of lumbar lordosis group will do hamstring stretching by active right knee extension while maintenance of lumbar lordosis for 5 weeks (15 seconds x 4 repetitions/set x 3 sets/day) at home.
