To investigate the change in passive hamstring stiffness and knee joint range of motion (ROM) following a single bout of passive hamstring stretching with or without active movement post-stretch.
To investigate dynamic knee joint range of motion (ROM) and jump performance following a single bout of passive hamstring stretching, hamstring vibration or a combination of both.
This study examined whether passive hamstring tissue stiffness and/or stretch tolerance explain the relationship between sex and hamstring extensibility.
Other evidence using a prone knee flexion/extension perturbation model reported lower active and passive hamstring stiffness in women [ 18, 19].
In contrast increased passive hamstring stiffness, quantified as the slope of the torque-angular position curve during passive hip flexion, was observed to significantly predict decreased extensibility in both healthy individuals and patients with chronic LBP [ 5].

Subjects were randomly divided into 2 groups; Group A received Mulligan's Bent Leg Raise (BLR) technique followed by Two Leg Rotation technique (TLRT) to improve neural tissue mobility and Group B received passive hamstrings stretching to improve hamstrings muscle extensibility.
In our clinical experience, the ceiling effect will happen with several patients with PFPS who may completely extend the knee before starting to feel the passive hamstrings resistance during the popliteal angle test.
The results of this study suggest that stretch tolerance and not passive stiffness explains hamstring extensibility, but this relationship is only manifest in men.
33 Passive knee extension (Hamstrings length): The participant will be positioned supine on a plinth.
The purposes of this study were: 1) to compare measures of hamstring extensibility, passive stiffness, and stretch tolerance between men and women, 2) to examine the relationship between passive stiffness and stretch tolerance with hamstring extensibility within each sex.
This pilot study aimed to explore preliminary data of effectiveness of two techniques on longitudinal load (extensibility and passive resistance) in the hamstring MTU.

Since I tried Ludwig back in 2017, I have been constantly using it in both editing and translation. Ever since, I suggest it to my translators at ProSciEditing.
