AB [EN] The  range  of  motion  of  a  joint  is  extremely  important  in  combat  sports,  especially  when  there  is  a  need  to  execute a certain motor gesture with maximum range of movement, as in throwing techniques such as uchi-mata  in  judo,  certain  types  of  guards  in  Brazilian  jiu-jitsu  or  the  high  kicks  common  in  a  variety  of  striking  combat  sports.  Therefore,  in  this  chapter,  we  will  discuss  the  elements  related  to  flexibility  response  during  training  sessions  or  combat  sports  competitions,  flexibility  tests  commonly  used  for  these  athletes,  and  the  monitoring and control of the evolution of flexibility in athletes. We will also present the means and methods used  for  the  development  of  flexibility  and  longitudinal  studies  on  the  development  of  flexibility  in  combat  sports  athletes.  Finally,  this  chapter  supports  based  on  the  evidence  the  inclusion  of  flexibility  development  within training sessions is an important consideration to maximize performance and other physical capabilitiesthat may be affected both acutely or in the long-term by flexibility.
