Abstract

.
The text discusses a study on the muscle strength of soccer players, focusing on the hip muscles over a season. It finds that hip abductor muscles become stronger during the season, while hip adductor muscles remain constant. This imbalance may increase the risk of groin injuries. The study emphasizes the need for preventive rehabilitation activities to strengthen adductor muscles and reduce the risk of injuries, particularly in the context of promoting health and well-being in sports.
