The purpose of this study was to identify if using a foam roller on the hamstring muscles
would have positive effects and in tum increase hamstring flexibility. Hamstring injuries are …

Foam rolling (FR) is a method of self-myofascial release (SMR) implemented to reduce
tension in underlying soft tissue, leading to increased range of motion (ROM). The hip …

Bakgrund: Foam rolling innebär att en individ rullar på en cylinderformad skumrulle över
musklerna, detta för att kunna öka rörelseomfånget i en led och användas för att patienten …

Background Foam rolling (FR) is a common intervention utilized for the purpose of acutely
increasing range-of-motion without subsequent decreases in performance. FR is …

Abstract Siebert, T, Donath, L, Borsdorf, M, and Stutzig, N. Effect of static stretching, dynamic
stretching, and myofascial foam rolling on range of motion during hip flexion: A randomized …

Background: the use of stretching techniques in the sports world is frequent and common
thanks to their many effects. One of the main benefits of stretching is an increased range of …

MAJOR PROFESSOR: Dr. M. Daniel Becque The purpose of this study was to investigate
the acute effects of foam rolling on quadriceps isokinetic and isometric force production as …

Foam rolling (FR) and vibration foam rolling (VFR) interventions have received attention as
pre-exercise warm-ups because they maintain performance and increase range of motion …

Increases in joint range of motion may be beneficial in both improving performance and
reducing the risk of injury. The purpose of this study was to investigate short-term changes in …

Previous studies investigated the effects of foam rolling (FR) on measurements of strength
and power. However, the acute effect of FR on muscle thickness (MT) and pressure pain …
