The Effect of Static Stretching on Proprioception, Pennation Angle, and Muscle Power Production [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
With widespread use of pre-exercise stretching methods across sport and exercise, recent studies have questioned the effectiveness of such methods (Kay & Blazevich 2012; Cramer et al., 2005; Curry, Chengkalath, Crouch, Romance, & Manns, 2009).

The effects of static stretching programs on muscle strength and muscle architecture of the medial gastrocnemius.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
IntroductionStatic stretching (SS) program are widely used in clinical and athletic settings. Many previous studies investigate the effect of SS program on muscle strength and muscle architecture (muscle thickness, and pennation angleh).

Predictability of in vivo changes in pennation angle of human tibialis anterior muscle from rest to maximum isometric dorsiflexion

open access: yes, 1999
The aim of this study was to assess the predictability of in vivo, ultrasound-based changes in human tibialis anterior (TA) pennation angle from rest to maximum isometric dorsiflexion (MVC) using a planimetric model assuming constant thickness between ...
