Brief Summary

To find out the better treatment options from active and passive static stretching in delayed onset of muscle soreness in recreational body players.

Conditions

Sports Physical Therapy

Keywords

Active Stretching; PassiveStretching; Recreational body players

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

• Numerical Pain Rating Scale

  Assesses the subjective intensity of pain; ages 18 and above

  8 weeks

• Goniometer

  A goniometer is an instrument which measures the available range of motion at a joint. Range of measurements flexion extension, abduction adduction, internal and external rotation, elbow flexion and extension wrist flexion and extension and radial and ulner deviation

  8 weeks

• Likert muscle Soreness Scale

  Scale Description 0 An absence of soreness 1. A light pain felt only when touched / a vague ache 2. A moderate pain felt only when touched / a slight persistent pain 3. A light pain when walking up or down stairs 4. A light pain when walking on a flat surface / painful 5. A moderate pain, stiffness or weakness when walking / very painful 6. A severe pain that limits my ability to move

  8 weeks

Study Arms (2)

Passive static stretching exercise

EXPERIMENTAL

Group 1 will receive passive static stretching. All subjects will be assessed before the intervention through likert muscle soreness scale, Numeric Rating Pain Scale and range of motion for Shoulder, elbow, and wrist by a Goniometer. After that all subjects will perform eccentric exhaust weight exercises in the gym of all mentioned joints, three sets at each joint. Before giving the intervention they will assess of all mentioned parameters.

Other: Active and passive static stretching exercises

Active static stretching

EXPERIMENTAL

Group 2 will receive active static stretching. All subjects will be assessed before the intervention through likert muscle soreness scale, Numeric Rating Pain Scale and range of motion for Shoulder, elbow, and wrist by a Goniometer. After that all subjects will perform eccentric exhaust weight exercises in the gym of all mentioned joints, three sets at each joint. Before giving the intervention they will assess of all mentioned parameters.

Other: Active and passive static stretching exercises

Interventions

Active and passive static stretching exercises OTHER

Different group of muscles will be stretched one by one, tricep brachii, bicep brachii, wrist exentsor etc

Active static stretching; Passive static stretching exercise
