Background Although it is known that resistance training can be as effective as stretch
training to increase joint range of motion, to date no comprehensive meta-analysis has …

A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis Next Article in Journal Three-Dimensional …

Background A single foam-rolling exercise can acutely increase the range of motion (ROM)
of a joint. However, to date the adaptational effects of foam-rolling training over several …

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 …

Key Points The meta-analysis on joint range of motion (ROM) increases revealed a small
effect size in favor of an acute bout of stretching compared to the control condition. Subgroup …

Background Long-term stretching of human skeletal muscles increases joint range of motion
through altered stretch perception and decreased resistance to stretch. There is also some …

Background It is well known that stretch training can induce prolonged increases in joint
range of motion (ROM). However, to date more information is needed regarding which …

Although it is well known that both stretching and foam rolling can acutely increase the
range of motion (ROM) and affect performance, the effects of a combined treatment (foam …

Foam rolling (FR) is a new and popular technique for increasing range of motion. While
there are a few studies that demonstrate increased performance measures after an acute …
