Values are presented as mean ± standard deviation. Significant difference by Bonferroni adjustment (p < 0.05/3). A: Pre-intervention < Floss band, B: Pre-intervention < Active exercise, C: Active exercise < Floss band, D: Floss band < Pre-intervention, E: Active exercise < Pre-intervention. ROM, range of motion; DF, dorsi flexion; PF, plantar flexion; OLT, one leg test; ANT, anterior; PL, posterior-lateral; PM, posterior-medial; CS, composite score. *p < 0.05.
