Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study will compare the short-term effects of static and dynamic stretching on the physical performance of undergraduate students who are not involved in athletic activities. It will be observed if a significant difference lies between these stretchings.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The individual participant will be assessed at baseline and then stretching will be performed after that. Group A will perform static stretching and group B will perform dynamic stretching. Immediate assessment will be done after 5 minutes, a second assessment will be done after 6 hours and a third one will be done after 24 hours to measure the short-term effects.

After that, a gap of 3 days will be given and stretching will be performed again. Now, group A will perform dynamic stretching and group B will perform static stretching. A similar assessment will be repeated after 5 minutes then 6 hours and then after 24 hours to determine the difference.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Static Stretching

Participants will perform static stretching on day 1 and dynamic stretching after the switching.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Static Stretching

Intervention Type OTHER

Static stretches are those in which you stand, sit or lie still and hold a single position for a period of time.

dynamic stretching

Participants will perform dynamic stretching on day 1 and static stretching after the switching.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

dynamic stretching

Intervention Type OTHER

Dynamic stretching involves making active movements that stretch the muscles to their full range of motion.
