Prolonged static stretching increases the magnitude and decreases the complexity of knee extensor muscle force fluctuations
Fig 4
(A) Change in ApEn during contractions at 25% MVC after each of the static stretch conditions. (B) Change in ApEn during contractions at 50% MVC after each of the static stretch conditions. (C) Change in ApEn during contractions at 75% MVC after each of the static stretch conditions. * = significant difference (P < 0.05) compared to the pre-stretch value.
