To the Editor

I read carefully the recently published article “What is the most effective eccentric stretching position in lateral elbow tendinopathy?” by Seo et al.1) I found the article interesting and well written. I would like to comment the following. First, the term “eccentric stretching” is incorrect. The correct terms are eccentric loading/contraction/training and static/passive stretching. The authors mentioned correctly the term “passive stretching” in Fig. 1 in the article.1) Second, the optimal time of stretching is not mentioned. Third, physiotherapists apply stretching as experts in exercise therapy. Fourth, a study with lateral elbow tendinopathy patients is needed to confirm the results. Lastly, a similar static stretching exercise protocol was recommended by Stasinopoulos and his colleagues.234) A debate on the above topics is most welcome as existing aspects may contribute to misunderstanding and inappropriate treatment.
