Purpose: The aim of this study is to suggest the basic materials for proposing effective and efficient methods when stretching by measuring isokinetic muscular strength according to static, dynamic and PNF stretching.
Methods: This study was conducted on 45 healthy persons (male and female) in their twenties who are attending universities. The subjects are randomly divided into three (3) groups, and static stretching is applied in group 1, dynamic stretching is applied in group 2 and PNF stretching is applied in group 3. After carrying out static, dynamic and PNF stretching, peak torque was measured using isokinetic muscular strength measurement.
Results: According to the results, at 60°/sec and 180°/sec isokinetic peak torque of the knee joint according to types of stretching, the largest changes were shown in Group 2 extension and flexion, and the least changes were shown in Group 1. There were significant differences among the three groups (p<0.05), and the result of after?analysis by LSD showed that there were significant differences between Groups 1 and 2, and Groups 1 and 3 (p<0.05).
Conclusion: The intention of this study was to determine the peak torque using Cybex after applying three stretching methods to hamstring muscles, and the case of dynamic and PNF stretching was found to be more significant in both the 60°/sec and 180°/sec angular speeds than that of static stretching. Using the results of such studies, if dynamic and PNF stretching are applied together with warming?up before performing sports, the risk of suffering wounds would reduce and the exactness of sports would increase.
