Table 1. SS protocol
Front deltoid and pectoral stretch. From a
standing position subjects positioned the arm
horizontally abducted with the palm flat
against a wall. To begin the stretch, they
turned their body away from the arm on the
wall, and kept a slight bend in their elbow
throughout the stretch.
Side deltoid stretch. From a standing position
subjects held the left arm horizontally across
the chest, grasped the elbow with the right
hand and pushed it toward chest.
Triceps and side-bend stretch. From a standing position, subjects brought the right arm
overhead with the elbow bent. Then with
their left hand they grasped the right elbow
and gently pulled as they bent slightly toward
the left side.
Adductor stretch. Subjects stood with their
feet as wide apart as is comfortable. Relying
with their hands on the floor they flexed the
left knee keeping the right leg straight.
Modified hurdlers stretch. From a seated
position subjects extended their left leg
straight and placed the right leg on the inside
of the straight leg. Then they bent forward
with the back flat.
