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 …

Recently, there has been a shift from static stretching (SS) or proprioceptive neuromuscular
facilitation (PNF) stretching within a warm-up to a greater emphasis on dynamic stretching …

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 …

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 …

The purpose of this study was to compare the acute effects of three different stretching
protocols on balance, agility, reaction time and movement time of the upper limbs …

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 …

The purpose of the study was to determine the effects of static and dynamic stretching
protocols within general and activity specific warm-ups. Nine male and ten female subjects …

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 …

The practices of strength and conditioning (S&C) coaches have been reported in various
professional sports. This study aims to comprehensively assess this available evidence to …
