Key Points The meta-analysis on joint range of motion (ROM) increases revealed a small
effect size in favor of an acute bout of stretching compared to the control condition. Subgroup
analysis revealed a significant increase in ROM with sit and reach, hamstrings, and triceps
surae tests, but no improvement with the hip adductor tests. Whereas all moderating
variables presented significant increases in ROM, further subgroup analyses revealed no
significant difference in ROM gains with the stretch intensity, trained state of the participants …
Key Points
  • The meta-analysis on joint range of motion (ROM) increases revealed a small effect size in favor of an acute bout of stretching compared to the control condition.
  • Subgroup analysis revealed a significant increase in ROM with sit and reach, hamstrings, and triceps surae tests, but no improvement with the hip adductor tests. Whereas all moderating variables presented significant increases in ROM, further subgroup analyses revealed no significant difference in ROM gains with the stretch intensity, trained state of the participants, stretching techniques, and sex.
  • A meta-regression showed no relationship between the effect sizes to age and stretch duration, respectively.
