Means and (SD) of outcome parameters and patient characteristics for the medial hamstrings (MEHs) and rectus femoris (REF) – comparison within each muscle between activation patterns.

Abbreviations: ADDs, adductors; GAS, gastrocnemius; MEHs, medial hamstrings; REF, rectus femoris; MHVD, mixed, high velocity-dependent; HVD, high velocity-dependent; MLVD, mixed, low velocity-dependent; VMAX, maximum angular velocity; low, low velocity stretches; high, high velocity stretches; ROM, range of motion; EMG, electromyography; P1, position zone 1; P2, position zone 2; P3, position zone 3; DSRTs, dynamic stretch reflex thresholds; TSRT, tonic stretch reflex threshold.
*Significant difference: p<0.05 (ANOVA/Freeman Holton).
