The Efficacy of Dynamic Contract-Relax Stretching on Delayed-Onset Muscle Soreness Among Healthy Individuals: A Randomized Clinical Trial
Conclusions:
The effect of DS on relieving DOMS in the calf muscle is insignificant in this study. Further evidence is needed to prove the efficacy of DS on DOMS.
Clinical Relevance:
Stretching is commonly recommended before and after exercise; however, this study showed no significant impact of DS or SS in treating DOMS.
