Interventions/Control_1

In RF group: Five repetitions (1 min each) of static stretching were performed with 45 sec of rest between each stretch. Two minutes of radiofrequncy is applied before the start of stretching and during the rest period between each stretching set.

Interventions/Control_2

Control group received only SS along with sham RF
