Abstract

Stretching is one of the warming methods used by most athletes, because you think would produce, on the one hand, positive effects on athletic performance and, on the other hand, a decrease in the risk of injury. However, despite this wide spread and its enormous application in most sports, stretching is now the subject of numerous controversies of interpretation that are questioning both the effectiveness, the actual usefulness. In fact, the results of scientific studies and sports practice has shown that static stretching would have a negative effect on performance and no reduction in the risk of trauma. Used, instead, for the training of joint mobility can produce significant results as regards the increase in the amplitude articular.
