Sex differences in stretch-induced hypertrophy, maximal strength and flexibility gains

Sex differences in stretch-induced hypertrophy, maximal strength and flexibility gains

Introduction: If the aim is to increase maximal strength (MSt) and muscle mass, resistance training (RT) is primarily used to achieve these outcomes. However, research indicates that long-duration stretching sessions of up to 2 h per day can also provide sufficient stimuli to induce muscle growth. I...
