Strategic Stretching: The Effects of Stretching on Strength and Range of Motion
| Division: | Life Sciences / None | | Category: | Senior | | Region: | Vancouver Island | | City: | Victoria, BC | | School: | Esquimalt Community School | | Abstract: | A goniometer and dynamometer were developed to measure quadriceps range of motion (ROM) and strength before and after a 20 stretch. Measurements on 36 participants showed no significantly change in strength, while most showed an increased ROM. The increased ROM may decrease risk of injury in physical activity, while not decreasing performance. |
