The effect of a rehabilitation program on the efficiency of the quadriceps muscles in athletes with simple ruptures

Abstract

Nutrition is the foundation that supports athletic performance. If the foundation is weak, performance will suffer and the athlete will end up sustaining several sports injuries. Malnutrition also increases the risk of sports injuries. When muscles are excessively damaged, they stimulate inflammatory hormones that help destroy tissue and prevent the production of new tissue. These inflammatory responses depend on total muscle mass and can be affected by nutrition and nutritional supplements, including isoprotein. Here lies the importance of the researchers choosing, after consulting nutrition experts, that this type of supplement be in addition to rehabilitative exercises in rehabilitating athletes who suffer from torn anterior thigh muscles. The research problem was through answering some questions: Is it possible to prepare a rehabilitation program accompanied by a nutritional supplement to rehabilitate the injury of a simple tear of the thigh muscles? The aim of the research is to prepare a rehabilitation program accompanying the nutritional supplement iso-protein and apply it to athletes with a simple tear of the thigh muscles. The research sample represented the clubs of Al-Muthanna Governorate, Al-Markaz, who were exposed to a torn anterior thigh muscle injury, and they numbered (4).
