In this lesson, we will discuss the British Athletics Muscle Injury Classification, also known as BAMIC, and its
application to hamstring muscle injuries.

We will briefly examine the historical evolution of muscle injury grading and classification systems,
compare BAMIC with the other evaluation scales most commonly used in recent years, and analyze its
features in detail.

In addition, we will explore how to calibrate recovery timelines and rehabilitation programs based on this
classification. Finally, we will take an in-depth look at a specific type of injury involving the intramuscular
tendon and seek to understand the main differences compared to the free tendon, both from an
anatomopathological and a functional perspective.
