Abstract in brief

  • The review discusses how static and dynamic stretching affect athletic performance, noting that static stretching has traditionally been linked to performance impairments but may not always be detrimental depending on factors like stretch duration, intensity, and individual athlete levels.
  • Dynamic stretching generally has little to no negative impact and can even improve performance, especially with longer or more intense routines, making it beneficial as part of a warmup.
  • For optimal performance, warmups should include light aerobic activity, followed by dynamic stretching, and sports-specific movements, with static stretching used separately or in moderation for flexibility and health benefits.]

O Treinamento da flexibilidade envolve a execução dos alongamentos estáticos, dinâmicos ou balísticos e a facilitação neuro-proprioceptiva (FNP). Segue trabalhos sobre o assunto https://t.co/PPsHuNgdO3 https://t.co/8PRjhUFMwt https://t.co/m4A2FRt4Jv

ダイナミックストレッチングでは、長時間ストレッチングにて筋力向上を認めている。 90秒以上で7.3%、90秒以下で0.5%と有意であった。 https://t.co/ybiSzEq7nW

ملاحظة : الأمر لا يتعلق بالتمدد لأن التمدد الساكن يقلل القوة وإنتاج الطاقة والتمدد الديناميكي ليس له تأثير كبير على الأداء https://t.co/YHubk7G8n9

@NathanTurley4 #NT #PT582 I think in part this is influenced by Pt preference and/or their activities! Do they have an activity where they need to hold a static stretch? Studies I'm seeing show static and PNF stretching both have a role. DOI: 10.1007/s00421-011-1879-2

@runnerd97 @NAUPT582 That is a great point! I briefly looked into this, and I found an article that suggests a warm-up should be composed of submaximal aerobic activity followed by dynamic stretching and sport-specific dynamic activities. #PT582 #SN https://t.co/2IAhm8k4gh
