The basic muscle function is defined as the stretch-shortening cycle (SSC), where the preactivated muscle is first stretched (eccentric action) and then followed by the shortening (concentric) action. As the SSC taxes the skeletal muscles very strongly mechanically, its influence on the reflex ...

Objective The purpose of this study was to review both the acute and chronic effects of stretching on performances involving the stretch-shortening cycle (SSC). Methods A systematic search for literature was undertaken (January 2006–December 2012) in which only randomized controlled trials (RCTs) ...
But, if you believe anything you read about it, overstretch sounds more dangerous than frayed-bungie-cord jumping. Ballistic stretching is a notorious old-school type of dynamic stretching that is widely believed to be useless and risky — a belief that is rich with irony. In a world that...
Most studied human actions are isolated isometric, concentric or eccentric muscle actions, but natural human movements frequently include muscle stretch shortening cycle (SSC), namely in gait, running and jumping, as a specific and independent form of muscle action controlled by the neuromuscular system...

The examination of stretch shortening cycle (SSC) in children became an interesting topic for research during the past years as it provides an important insight into the functioning of the neuromuscular system. This paper presents several studies related to children and their ability to jump. The ...
