Comparison of massage, static stretching and combination of massage and stretching methods in lower limb muscle on flexibility, anaerobic power and agility tests performance in soccer players
Introduction: The purpose of the study was comparing the three methods including massage, static stretching and combination of massage and stretching in lower limb muscle on flexibility, power and agility tests performance in soccer players. Methods: 45 soccer players contributed in this semi-experimental study. The players were randomly assign in three groups massage (15 cases), stretchi...
متن کامل3D curvature of muscle fascicles in triceps surae.
Muscle fascicles curve along their length, with the curvatures occurring around regions of high intramuscular pressure, and are necessary for mechanical stability. Fascicles are typically considered to lie in fascicle planes that are the planes visualized during dissection or two-dimensional (2D) ultrasound scans. However, it has previously been predicted that fascicles must curve in three-dime...
متن کاملComparative Triceps Surae Morphology in Primates: A Review
Primate locomotor evolution, particularly the evolution of bipedalism, is often examined through morphological studies. Many of these studies have examined the uniqueness of the primate forelimb, and others have examined the primate hip and thigh. Few data exist, however, regarding the myology and function of the leg muscles, even though the ankle plantar flexors are highly important during hum...
متن کاملEffect of modified hold-relax stretching and static stretching on hamstring muscle flexibility
[Purpose] The aim of present study was to compare the effectiveness of modified hold-relax stretching and static stretching in improving the hamstring muscle flexibility. [Subjects and Methods] Forty-five male subjects with hamstring tightness were included in this study. The subjects were randomly placed into three groups: the modified hold-relax stretching, static stretching and control group...
متن کاملMuscle activation and its distribution within human triceps surae muscles.
The purposes of this study were 1) to quantify the volume of activated parts within a whole muscle and 2) to examine activated area distributions along the length of muscle. Seven male subjects performed five sets of 10 repetitions of a single-leg calf-raise exercise with the knee fully extended. Transverse relaxation time (T2)-weighted spin echo images were acquired before and immediately afte...
