Objective: To determine the effectiveness of moderate pre-exercise warm-up, static stretching, or a combination of both on muscular force production and hamstring extensibility of the lower extremity. Design and Setting: This experiment was a counterbalanced repeated measures design of four treatment conditions. Subjects participated in warm-up, static stretching, combined warm-up...
The purpose of this study was to characterize glenohumeral joint laxity and
stiffness using instrumented arthrometry. To evaluate the validity of an instrumented
measurement system we compared cutaneous and bone-pinned measures of laxity and
stiffness that replicate previously reported in vivo methodology. Characterization of
capsular laxity was achieved through determination...
