The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate whether single limb neurodynamic mobilizations increase active knee extension (AKE) range of motion (ROM) of the contralateral limb. 20 healthy participants (10 females and 10 males, age; 20.8+1.7 years, height; 1.7+ 0.1m, weight; 76.7+ 15.4kg). AKE was measured pre- and post- intervention and control. The main question it aims to answer are: It is hypothesized that contralateral neurodynamic mobilization will significantly increase AKE ROM in asymptomatic individuals. Participants were allocated sequentially in an alternating order to study groups. This method aims to balance group sizes while simplifying the assignment. AKE was measured immediately before and after the allocated condition. One week later, at the same time of day, participants returned to complete the opposing condition following a standardized washout period to minimize carryover effects between conditions. * Completed a neurodynamic mobilisation on the contralateral limb 6x30seconds, 10 second rest between sets. * When acting as the control sat quietly for 4 minutes to match the duration of the intervention condition.
