Abstract:

Flexibility is an important basic component in sports activities, which supports the achievement of the maximum performance of an athlete. Exercises are needed for stretching proper this study aimed to determine: (1) the effect of passive static stretching on shoulder flexibility, (2) the effect of Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF) stretching on shoulder flexibility (3) determine which exercise is better on shoulder flexibility between stretching and PNF. the method used is experimental with pretest and post-test design. The research sample was 16 students of the Sport Coaching E

Abstract:

The problem in this study was to test and find out flexibility in students before and after carrying out the Dynamic stretching and PNF tests, so this study aimed to determine the effect of Dynamic stretching and PNF exercises on flexibility in students. This research was an experimental data analysis technique from Dynamic stretching exercises and PNF. The research instrument used the Sit and Reach tool. The samples in the study were from Tanjungpura University PKO students, class of 2022. The research instrument used was the Sit and Reached tool to find out flexibility which will be tested.

Abstract:

The researchers aimed at designing a rehabilitation program using stretching exercises and proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF). The researchers used the experimental methods on (9) young volleyball players to conclude that stretching exercises have a good effect on PNF rehabilitation in rotator cuff injury according to the anthropometric measurement for volleyball players as well as stretching exercises that develop proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) have a positive effect on rehabilitating rotator cuff injury in muscle, tendons according to anthropometric measurement.

Objective: to investigate the effect of proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation stretching on force-time curve and EMG Parameters in competitive aerobics athletes. Methods: we take 36 competitive aerobics athletes as participants, and they were tested after bicycle exercise and bicycle exercise/PNF stretching protocol,then the data were compared and analyzed.Conclusion: PNF stretching for lower extremity will not cause the maximum muscular strength and force - time curve parameters (MVC,F100,IRF,and TMVC) significantly decreased in competitive aerobics athletes, however,EMG voltage of rectus

Aim: This study aimed to compare the immediate and long-term effect of proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) contract–relax–antagonist–contract (CRAC) exercises versus static stretching on proprioception and flexibility in males with hamstring shortness. Patients & methods: Knee extension angle test was used to measure flexibility and isokinetic dynamometer to evaluate proprioception. Assessments were evaluated at baseline, after first exercise and eighth week. The hamstring stretching was applied 3 days a week for 8 weeks. Results: Flexibility and position sense were similar in

Abstract:

Background: Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common joint disorder, predominantly affecting diarthrodial joints, with knee osteoarthritis (KOA) being the most studied and impactful. Aging, obesity, mechanical stress, and muscle weakness are key contributing factors. Traditional management strategies for KOA include pharmacological treatments, lifestyle modifications, and physiotherapy interventions. PNF stretching techniques, such as Contract-Relax and Hold-Relax, work by enhancing flexibility, muscle strength, and joint stability through a combination of passive and isometric contractions. Unl

Abstract:

Study Purpose. Poor hamstring muscle flexibility is one of the most common risk factors for hamstring injuries. This is due to tension in the musculotendinus structures which reduces the ability of the muscles to extend rapidly without injury. Therefore, this study aims to prove the effect of using PNF stretching and Static stretching exercises on the level of flexibility of the hamstring muscles in athletes. Materials and Methods. Researchers used Quasi Experimental Design research procedures. This form of design is a development of true experimental design. After being divided into two, the

Abstract:

Osteoarthritis (OA) knee is a long-term chronic disease characterized by the destruction of articular cartilage and underlying bone. Pain, limitation of motion and functional impairment are common clinical features. Poor hamstring flexibility is a major problem for patients with OA knee. The stretching of the hamstring is a necessary intervention in the management of the OA knee. This study is therefore intended to compare the effectiveness of static stretching vs PNF stretching for pain, hamstring flexibility and functional mobility in OA Knee patients. 30 patients were randomly divided into

Abstract:

Introduction: Many athletes perform stretching exercises as part of a warm-up prior to physical activity in order to prevent injuries and enhance their performance by an increase in flexibility. The significance of this study was that it may provide information about the better stretching method between dynamic and PNF stretching immediately before the sports events which may help to enhance the strength of knee extensor, thereby helping in improving performance and injury prevention.Method: An experimental design was used in the study. 51 subjects were randomly divided and statistically analy

Background and Study Aim. Strength, power and flexibility are among the features that provide advantage against the opponent in kick boxers. There are many factors that can affect the development of these parameters in a positive and negative way before the competition. These factors may differ according to the type and intensity of warm-up and stretching exercises, depending on psychological and physiological conditions. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) stretching, massage, PNF+massage on flexibility, vertical jump and hand gr
