Training and Detraining Effects Following a Static Stretching Program on Medial Gastrocnemius Passive Properties

Training and Detraining Effects Following a Static Stretching Program on Medial Gastrocnemius Passive Properties

A stretching intervention program is performed to maintain and improve range of motion (ROM) in sports and rehabilitation settings. However, there is no consensus on the effects of stretching programs on muscle stiffness, likely due to short stretching durations used in each session. Therefore, a lo...
