Stretching has long been used in many physical activities to increase range of motion (ROM)
around a joint. Stretching also has other acute effects on the neuromuscular system. For …

Background Foam rolling (FR) has been demonstrated to acutely enhance joint range of
motion (ROM). However, data syntheses pooling the effect sizes across studies are scarce. It …

The use of dynamic stretching as a replacement for static stretching in the warm-up is
widespread based on the reports of static stretching-induced performance impairments …

Purpose Stretching and foam rolling are common warm-up exercises and can acutely
increase the range of motion (ROM) of a joint. However, possible differences in the …

We aimed to compare the effects between non-vibration foam rolling (NVFR) and vibration
foam rolling (VFR) on visual analogic scale (VAS), pressure pain threshold (PPT), oxygen …

Abstract Background Foam Rolling (FR) is currently used by athletes at all levels. It is not
known whether FR is more effective being used as a warm up to aid performance or more …

Warm-up is an essential component for optimizing performance before an exercise session.
This study investigated that the immediate effects of vibration rolling (VR), nonvibration …

Purpose Supporting post-exercise recovery requires choosing not only the right treatment
but also the equipment, in which the impact is not always clear. The study aimed to …

Dynamic stretching (DS) is performed to increase sports performance and is also used
primarily for transiently increasing range of motion (ROM). Recently, vibration foam rolling …

Foam rolling and stretching with its various techniques are frequently used as a warm-up
routine to increase the range of motion of a joint. While the magnitude of the changes in …
