Abstract

The main objective of this study was to investigate isokinetic knee muscle strength, hamstring to quadriceps (H/Q) strength ratio, and bilateral strength deficit in professional futsal, soccer and beach soccer players. We hypothesized that athletes of different soccer modalities have a specific isokinetic profile due to physiological, playing surface and biomechanical demands and specificities.
