The thesis investigates the effects of Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF) stretching techniques on the agility of high school athletes. Conducted with 30 participants from Burgettstown High School, the study compares two PNF methods—Hold-Relax and Contract-Relax—against a control group with no stretching. Results indicate no significant differences in agility test times among the groups, suggesting that the specific PNF protocol used may not be effective for improving agility. The findings highlight a need for further research using longer stretching durations to assess potential benefits.

We have answers to the most popular questions from our customers. If you can't find an answer to your question, please contact us.

Does stretching make you more agile?

However, research has shown that stretching can help improve flexibility, and, as a result, the range of motion of your joints. Better flexibility may: Improve your performance in physical activities. Decrease your risk of injuries.

What are the effects of PNF?

Our outcomes showed that PNF stretching increased crossing velocity during stepping over obstacles, indicating its effects in decreasing the risk of falls and increasing dynamic stability.

How does stretching improve agility?

This form of stretching improves speed, agility and acceleration. It involves the active tightening of your muscles and moving your joints through their full range of motion throughout the stretch.

What is the major disadvantage of PNF stretching?

However, partner PNF stretching has 2 major drawbacks 1) it requires a partner and 2) has more risk in that your partner must communicate and respond appropriately to ensure that the stretch is performed safely. Self-PNF stretching could eliminate both of those drawbacks.

How does PNF stretching affect performance?

Incorporating PNF stretching techniques, either with the knee extended or flexed, can effectively increase ankle ROM, enhancing joint flexibility and potentially benefiting sports performance and injury prevention.

How does stretching improve athletic performance?

Stretching increases blood circulation to the muscles, which can enhance oxygen delivery and nutrient supply, ultimately improving performance. Improved flexibility can lead to better muscle coordination and balance, which are crucial for many sports and physical activities.

How does flexibility improve agility?

With increased flexibility, athletes can reach further, kick harder, jump higher, and twist faster. Furthermore, having good range of motion can help athletes react quicker and more effectively in response to sudden changes in their environment.

How does exercise improve agility?

Strength training provides muscles with the potential to produce increased force, improves tissue robustness and reduces the risk of injury from high load plyometrics such as drop jumps. Since many agility movements require tolerating high eccentric loads, we can target eccentric strength with resistance training.
