Stretch Tolerance

Stretch Tolerance is a physiological construct representing the individual's neuromuscular capacity to endure discomfort during passive elongation of musculotendinous structures, distinguishing it from other flexibility-related attributes by emphasizing the perceptual and neural adaptation to stretching stress rather than range of motion or tissue extensibility alone.
