Abstract
Context: Exercise-associated muscle cramps are a common clinical problem for athletes.
Objective: To determine whether acute passive static stretching altered cramp threshold frequency (CTF) of electrically induced muscle cramps.
Design: Crossover study.
Setting: Laboratory.
Patients or Other Participants: Seventeen healthy college-aged individuals.
Intervention(s): Stretching or no stretching.
Main Outcome Measure(s): The independent variable was the static stretch versus the no-stretch condition, and the dependent variable was the CTF.
Results: The CTF increased in both the control (pretest: 18.12 ± 6.46 Hz, posttest: 19.65 ± 7.25 Hz; P = .033) and stretching (pretest: 18.94 ± 5.96 Hz, posttest: 20.47 ± 7.12 Hz; P = .049) groups. No difference between the groups was found (t15 = 0.035, P = .97).
Conclusions: Acute passive static stretching did not seem to increase the CTF.
