Previous studies showed decrease of strenght expression after stretching protocols, while others states that there aren’t significative diference. Thus, the purpose of this study was to verify if the PNF stretching affect the lower limb explosive force and muscle endurance. Eight university basketball athletes underwent two PNF protocols : a) 4 repetitions with 5-second maximal voluntary isometric contraction and 30 seconds of passive stretch and b) 4 repetitions with 5-second maximal voluntary isometric contraction and 60 seconds of passive stretch. The lower limb explosive force and muscle endurance were assessed through vertical jump. T test was used to compare the jump height between the conditions before and after stretching. There were no difference in the jump heights (p>0,05) after both stretching protocols. The results of this study show that these PNF protocols don’t affect the lower limbs explosive force and muscle endurance.
