The purpose of this study was to compare static and dynamic stretching techniques to determine their effects on explosive power. In order to investigate the effect of these stretches on an individual's power, a vertical jump test was administered. Prior research has primarily focused on male subjects, so this study included 18 female participants to address this gap in the literature. Each participant completed two jump trials under each condition, with the order of the conditions randomized across participants to control for order effects. Jump height was recorded using a Vertec device, and the highest of the two trials was used as the dependent variable in statistical analysis. Statistical analysis revealed a significant difference in the jump trial averages between the three conditions (no stretching, static stretching, and dynamic stretching) (p < 0.05). Specifically, subjects who performed dynamic stretches showed the highest levels of power output compared to those who did not stretch or performed only static stretches. These findings suggest that incorporating dynamic stretching into pre-exercise routines may lead to improved athletic performance, particularly in activities requiring explosive power. Further research is needed to explore the generalizability of these findings to other populations and forms of exercise.
