Filter by:Acutely, during different bouts of passive stretching (PS), blood flow (Q ̇) and shear rate ( ) in the feeding artery of the stretched muscles increases during the first two elongations and then it reduces during the following bouts. This hyperemic response during the first two elongations is mediated by the local release of vasoactive molecules (e.g. nitric oxide, NO). This phenomenon disappears during the following elongations due to the NO and other vasoactive molecule depletion. The relaxation phase between stretching bouts, instead, is always characterized by hyperemia as results of stretch-induced peripheral resistances decrease. Whether chronic PS administration may influence vascular function is still a matter of investigation. The hypothesis is that repetitive PS-induced Q ̇ and changes may be an enough stimulus to provoke increments in NO bioavailability, thus improving vasomotor response.
This research shows the effect of stretching exercises on dynamic balance. football players divided into 2 groups do different stretching exercises, dynamic and static. The control group does not do stretching exercises. The study should show which stretching exercises have a greater effect on the Y balance test than the dynamic balance test.
This study evaluates the effect to a muscle stretching program combined with physical exercise versus a physical exercise program in patients with fibromyalgia.
