ResumoSummary The aim was to investigate and compare the effects of proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation ( PNF ) and static stretching ( SS ) on maximal voluntary contraction ( MVC ) and muscle activation in indoor soccer players. Thirty‐three young adult men were divided into two groups: (i) sedentary and (ii) trained. Each group completed three different experimental trials: SS , PNF and no stretching ( NS ). The MVC of knee extension was evaluated before and immediately after each condition along with electromyography from the vastus lateralis ( VL ) and rectus femoris ( RF ) muscles of the dominant leg. PNF or SS techniques induced no decrease on MVC and muscle electromyographical activity in indoor soccer players ( P >0·05). The electromyography of the RF and VL was lower after SS only in the sedentary group ( P ≤0·05). Short‐duration PNF or SS has no effect on isometric MVC and muscle activity in indoor soccer players.
