BACKGROUND: Nowadays, more and more people regard the isokinetic training as a method for strength training and rehabilitation of muscle injuries of athletes. But it is rare in study of rehabilitation following joint injury via isokinetic training. OBJECTIVE: To explore the advantage of isokinetic training in rehabilitation, further more, to provide the scientific basis to rehabilitation of muscle injuries. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: The contrast observation was performed at the Laboratory of Institute of Physical Education, Hebei Normal University between March and May 2008. PARTICIPANTS: Two female college basketball athletes whose knee joints were injured. METHODS: The Kinitech isokinetic testing system (Kylingk, Australia) was used to test the flexion and extension muscles of knee joint of 2 athletes and contrasted the values of flexion and extension muscle after rehabilitation training, damage side and healthy side. All data were analyzed to observe the effects of strength training. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Peak torque (PT) values of flexor and extensor in knee joints. RESULTS: After 8 weeks isokinetic training, the strength index of two subjects had increased in certain degree both at the 60 (?)/s and 240 (?)/s. The PT values showed that the increasing range of flexor was greater than that of extensor in the 1st subject, but the circumstance was opposite in the 2nd subject. The index of BP, STW, and AP was greatly increased, as well as work fatigue. CONCLUSION: It is helpful to increase the muscle strength and promote the rehabilitation via isokinetic training system. The isokinetic strength training has the positive effects on rehabilitation of muscle injuries.
