The purpose of this study was to determine how three different warm-up conditions prior to exercise influence active range of motion (AROM) and peak and average isokinetic muscle torque at two speeds. Nineteen males completed three warm-up conditions: jogging only (JO), jogging + stretching (JS), and jogging + stretching + 15-minute rest period (JSR). Nine dependent variables were measured: concentric peak and average torque, eccentric peak and average torque, and AROM. A two-way MANOVA was used to analyze data. AROM data was also assessed using a repeated measures (2x3) ANOVA to detect significant changes over time. Muscular torque data was not significantly different among warm-up conditions (p>0.05). AROM increased after all warm-up conditions (p<0.05). Results demonstrated that a warm-up which includes a minimum of 5 minutes of jogging was sufficient to promote increases in AROM, and these effects lasted for at least 15 minutes after warm-up was completed.
