Stretch-Shortening Cycle
The
Stretch-Shortening Cycle
(SSC) is a
natural muscle function
during
dynamic movements
where muscles undergo an
initial stretch
(eccentric action) followed by a shortening (
concentric action
), enhancing
force production
and efficiency. This cycle leverages the
elastic properties of muscle
and tendon, as well as
neuromuscular reflexes
, to improve
performance in activities
like jumping, sprinting, and throwing.
