Variables measured during the constant-speed tests with or without previous static stretching.
Figure 2.
Variables measured with and without previous static stretching treatment.
A and B panels show the running speed and rating of perceived exertion during a 3-km running time-trial, respectively. C and D panels show the drop jump and sit-and-reach tests performed prior to and immediately after static stretching treatment. * Significantly different from control situation (p≤0.05). #Significant difference over time in each condition (p≤0.05).
