Chronic effects of stretching on range of motion with consideration of potential moderating variables: A systematic review with meta-analysis

What this work gives Aellic

77 studies, 186 effect sizes: stretch training for two weeks or more increased joint range of motion with a large effect versus controls (ES about 1.0). Static stretching and PNF outperformed ballistic or dynamic stretching; volume, intensity and frequency were not significant moderators. Range of motion only; it says nothing about injury or pain.
