Popis: The Nordic hamstring exercise (NHE) reduces hamstring injury incidence. Compliance to large exercise volumes of the NHE is poor, with exercise related soreness often seen as a contributing factor. We investigated the dose–response of NHE exposure with delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) and non-DOMS pain. Forty males were randomized to a 6-week intervention of four different NHE dosages: Group 1: very low volume; Group 2: low volume; Group 3: initial high to low volume; Group 4: low to high volume. Group 4 experienced more DOMS (p
