Muscle Architecture Adaptations to Static Stretching Training: A Systematic Review with Meta-Analysis

Muscle Architecture Adaptations to Static Stretching Training: A Systematic Review with Meta-Analysis

Abstract Background Long-term stretching of human skeletal muscles increases joint range of motion through altered stretch perception and decreased resistance to stretch. There is also some evidence that stretching induces changes in muscle morphology. However, research is limited and inconclusive....
