Study description+157 characters
StretchingFoam techniques used in athletes are frequently and widely used due to many effects such as changing range of motion, comfortable movement maintenance, and removal. There is no consensus in the literature on which of the static, dynamic,rolling and proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation stretching techniquesare is most effective, as opposed to the types of stretching for flexibility. There is no clear benefit of different stretching techniques to muscle performance. Accordingly, in the literature, it is seen that proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation stretching techniques show [...] [...]

Original filing
This randomized, assessor-blinded, parallel-group comparative trial investigated the acute effects of foam rolling (FR) and proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) stretching used as warm-up strategies in amateur athletes. Following a standardized 5-minute aerobic cycling warm-up, participants were randomly allocated to either a foam rolling group or a PNF stretching group. Hamstring flexibility was the prespecified primary outcome. Isometric knee flexion strength, vertical jump performance, pressure pain threshold, and intervention-related perceived exertion were assessed as secondary outcomes. All performance outcomes were assessed before and immediately after the assigned intervention.
