Effects of Static Stretching for 30 Seconds and Dynamic Stretching on Leg Extension Power

Title Effects of Static Stretching for 30 Seconds and Dynamic Stretching on Leg Extension Power Effect of Stretching on Muscular Performance

Acute effect of static stretching on power output during concentric dynamic constant external resistance leg extension.

The purpose of the present study was to clarify the effect of static stretching on muscular performance during concentric isotonic (dynamic constant external resistance [DCER]) muscle actions under various loads. Concentric DCER leg extension power outputs were assessed in 12 healthy male subjects after 2 types of pretreatment. The pretreatments included (a) static stretching treatment performi...

Acute effects of dynamic stretching, static stretching, and light aerobic activity on muscular performance in women.

The purpose of this study was to compare three warm-up protocols--static stretching, dynamic stretching, and light aerobic activity--on selected measures of range of motion and power in untrained females and to investigate the sustained effects at 5 and 30 minutes after warm-up. A total of 24 healthy females (ages 23-29 years) attended one familiarization session and three test sessions on nonc...

Acute Effect of Static and Dynamic Stretching

Amiri-Khorasani, M, Abu Osman, NA, and Yusof, A. Acute effect of static and dynamic stretching on hip dynamic range of motion during instep kicking in professional soccer players. J Strength Cond Res 25(6): 1647–1652, 2011—The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of static and dynamic stretching within a pre-exercise warm-up on hip dynamic range of motion (DROM) during instep kickin...

The Acute Effects of Static Stretching on Leg Extension Power:Quadriceps Torque Production After a 30-Second Static Stretch Versus No Stretch

Introduction: Traditionally, static passive stretching has been used by coaches and athletes as a warm-up technique in an attempt to promote better performances. However, the results of recent research have shown that passive muscle stretching can diminish the peak force output of subsequent maximal concentric contractions of the quadriceps. Aside from clinicians’ benefits, athletes competing i...
