In 2021 I wrote my master thesis, where I compared the effects of stretching and strength training on ROM and tried to uncover if there were any differences in the adaptations that lead to the increase in ROM, after stretching and strength training. It’s a subject...

I still see some people argue, that the effects of static stretching on range of motion are purely neural – however, this is simply not true. Chronic streching makes several structures in the body adapt, but in regards to flexibility and our usable range of motion,...

I find this question interesting because we often, myself included, assume a person is less flexible, if they happen to have a bigger build – however, it’s not always the case. This is even though several studied have found a correlation between increased muscle mass...

When it comes to determining what adaptations lead to increased flexibility, two main theories have been proposed: The sensory theory, and the mechanical theory (Weppler and Magnusson 2010). To understand the difference, we’ll first need to discuss passive resistance...

Fleksibilitetstræning og styrketræning, bliver ofte set som to modsætninger. Det er imidlertid ikke sandt, det er faktisk i høj grad muligt at kombinere fleksibilitet og styrketræning. Det kan endda have visse fordele hvis man gerne vil være mere fleksibel,...
