Acute impact of static and dynamic stretching on muscle strength
Abstract
Warming up can directly influence physical performance, and strategies such as static and dynamic stretching have been described in the literature. However, it is suggested that static stretching can reduce the percentage of muscle strength before exercise and, on the other hand, dynamic stretching can increase muscle strength, in addition to improving the vascularization of muscle tissue used in exercise and increasing the production of synovial fluid. Thus, the present study aimed to verify the acute impact of static and dynamic stretching on muscle strength. Twenty men were selected and divided into 2 groups, group with static stretching (GAE) and group with dynamic stretching (GAD) where in each group the horizontal bench press exercise was applied, using the 1RM test to verify the dynamic strength maximum. At first, the 1RM test was performed, being repeated 48 hours later, and in this second moment the GAE did the static stretching before the test and the GAD warmed up by doing 15 repetitions with 50% of 1RM in the bench press. With the results, we observed that both warming strategies had a negative impact on muscle strength, being more pronounced for GAE, where individuals in the GAE group had a 10.77% reduction (p=0.003) and the GAD 3 group, 47% (p=0.047). Thus, we found that dynamic stretching is more effective as a method of warming up than static stretching, leads to better preparation of the body for exercise and provides less harm in reducing dynamic strength.
