The effect of 4 different durations of static hamstring stretching on passive knee-extension range of motion
Article Abstract:
The effect of 4 durations of static hamstring stretching on knee-extension passive range of motion (KE-PROM) is studied. The results showed that static stretching was effective in increasing KE-PROM regardless of stretch duration and though a significant improvement was identified in mean passive range of motion (PROM) for each stretching group, no difference existed among 4 stretch-duration groups.

Intersession reliability of the Omnikinetic closed-chain dynamometer
Article Abstract:
Healthy and physically active adults are examined to establish intersession reliability of several kinetic variables during different load and speed conditions over a four-week period. The reliability observed in most measurements of the ankle and knee was moderate while that in hip showed increased variability.
