Abstract

Flexibility is one key of physical fitness components, it is quite important to support daily activity and sport performances. This study aims to identify what type of physical exercises induce muscle damage, to evaluate changes in flexibility (ROM), and to identify potential flexibility training. Original studies which no longer than ten years were considered in this study (secondary data), and other significant references also acceptable to support the storylines. The first step was codifying, followed by analysis and synthesis, and last step was conclusion drawing. It must be done sequentially to reveal the reasonable answers. Eccentric muscle contraction, exessive volume, and prolonged duration are factors of training which lead muscle injuries. ROM is decreased due to muscle damage, it last longer in untrained men. Stretching, foam rolling, sport massage, Propioceptive Neuromuschular Facilitation (PNF) are potential flexibility trainings might
