Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The terminal swing phase of running is when the hamstrings are most vulnerable to injury due to the high eccentric demands of the muscle. During this phase, the hamstrings act to slow down the swinging leg before foot strike, which requires them to lengthen while under tension. This combination of lengthening and tension puts the hamstrings at risk for strain or tear injuries.
