The objective of this study is to determine the acute effects of static stretching (SS) on the range of motion (ROM) levels of the shoulder girdle and on 10 repetition maximum (10-RM) on the bench press exercise in two joint angles. Eleven male subjects were randomly assigned to a control (CC -- no stretching) and experimental (two sets of 30 s of passive static stretching for the chest and the triceps) conditions. The shoulder girdle ROM during horizontal abduction of the shoulder was analyzed measure with photogrammetry and analyzed using an angular dimension tool from CorelDRAW. The 10-RM was performed in a free bar bench press in two different joint angles (total range of motion or 90 degrees of elbow flexion). The reliability of shoulder girdle ROM and 10-RM at 90 degrees and total range were high. A two-way ANOVA with repeated measures for both factors with post-hoc Bonferroni test showed a significant interaction with increase in ROM after SS.
