1 Sports Medicine Department, School of Medicine, Ankara University, Ankara, Turkey. 2 Gençlerbirliği Sport Club, Ankara, Turkey Aim: Static stretching (SS) is commonly performed by athletes prior to exercise and athletic events for many years. Its possible benefits are based on increases in joint Range of Motion (ROM) and/or decreases in muscle-tendon unit stiffness. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of static stretching on concentric, isokinetic leg extension peak torque (PT) at 60 and 300°·s−1 and hip range of motion (ROM) in sedentary people and professional soccer players.
