Means and standard deviations of the participant’s flexibility and soreness level.
Overall (N=57) | PNF (n=19) | Static (n=20) | Control (n=18) | |
---|---|---|---|---|
Pre-exercise SS (cm) | 6.3 ± 9.8 | 5.2 ± 10.2 | 6.0 ± 9.7 | 7.9 ± 9.7 |
Post-exercise SS (cm) | 7.9 ± 9.7 | 6.2 ± 10.3 | 8.5 ± 9.7 | 9.0 ± 9.4 |
24 hour PE-PS | 2.1 ± 0.9 | 2.2 ± 0.8 | 2.3 ± 1.1 | 1.9 ± 0.9 |
48 hour PE-PS | 1.8 ± 1.0 | 1.6 ± 1.0 | 2.0 ± 1.1 | 1.7 ± 0.9 |
Pre-Post FC (cm) | 1.6 ± 1.8 | 1.1 ± 1.4 | 2.5 ± 1.4 | 1.0 ± 2.1 |
24 to 48h PSC | 0.4 ± 0.9 | 0.6 ± 0.9 | 0.3 ± 1.0 | 0.2 ± 0.8 |
Values represent Means ± standard deviation. SS= static stretch, PE-PS= post-exercise pain score, FC= flexibility change, PSC= pain score change
