Acute effects of passive muscle stretching on sprint performance.
The results of previous research have shown that passive muscle stretching can diminish the peak force output of subsequent maximal isometric, concentric and stretch-shortening contractions. The aim of this study was to establish whether the deleterious effects of passive stretching seen in laboratory settings would be manifest in a performance setting. Sixteen members (11 males, 5 females) of ...
متن کاملEffect of passive stretching on the immobilized soleus muscle fiber morphology.
The aim of the present study was to determine the effect of stretching applied every 3 days to the soleus muscle immobilized in the shortened position on muscle fiber morphology. Eighteen 16-week-old Wistar rats were used and divided into three groups of 6 animals each: a) the left soleus muscle was immobilized in the shortened position for 3 weeks; b) during immobilization, the soleus was stre...
متن کاملEffects of passive stretching on muscle injury and HSP expression during recovery after immobilization in rats.
OBJECTIVE Stretching exercise is known to induce muscle hypertrophy and is implicated in the modulation of muscle fiber behavior. We aim to determine whether stretching exercise is protective against reloading-induced muscle damage in immobilized rat soleus muscle. METHODS Rat hindlimbs in 54 eight-week-old male Wistar rats were immobilized by cast for 4 weeks, followed by reloading alone thr...
متن کاملEffect of Active Dynamic Versus Passive Static Stretching on Hamstring Muscle Tightness in Healthy Female Students: A Randomized Trial Study
Background: For decades, static stretching has been the standard benchmark for training programs, because it has been shown to increase flexibility compared with other methods of stretching. Objective: The current study investigated and compared the effects of active dynamic stretching and passive static stretching on hamstring tightness. Me...
