The subjects of the CG will receive the same orientations of the other groups in relation to the importance of the routines of stretching activities, but during the study period, they will not be able to perform stretches during their day to day life.
The experimental group 1 will have the sensation of "SENSATION SENSING WITHOUT DESCONFORT" as an intensity for the application of the passive stretch protocol.
The GE2 will have the feeling of "MAXIMUM DISORDER WITHOUT PAIN" as the as an intensity for the application of the passive stretch protocol.
GE3 will have the sensation of "MAXIMUM TOLERABLE PAIN" as the as an intensity for the application of the passive stretch protocol.
