Answer:

In recent years, research has been conducted to understand the anatomical causes for reduced hamstring muscle extensibility and its relation to both altered lumbopelvic movements and hamstring muscle injury. Muscle shortness refers to the length of the individual sarcomeres and their lengthening capacity. Muscle stiffness refers to the force required to effect the length of the connective tissue. These concepts focus directly on the structure of the muscle tissue and not on the neuro-mechano-sensitivity of the neural tissues for which muscles provide a dynamic container.
