Short summary
Dynamic stretching (DS) slightly improved performance (+1.3%) immediately after stretching, while static (SS) and PNF stretching decreased it (-3.7% and -4.4%, respectively), likely due to reduced muscle activation. Longer SS durations (≥60s) caused greater performance deficits (-4.6%).
