Hamstring strains are one of the most common injuries in change of direction field sports, and result in a large cumulative amount of lost playing and training time for athletes. One of the main reasons for hamstring injuries is a lack of exposure to the type of force (a braking force as the leg moves out in front at high speeds) that causes these injuries. Research suggests that more regular exposure to high speed sprinting can be protective against these types of injuries.

Just following on from a post that I did last month regarding the relevance of overtraining to different populations where I mentioned that overtraining can be relevant even if you don't consider yourself relatively fit.
