STRETCHING
Stretching is a physical exercise that requires putting a body part
in a certain position that'll serve in the lengthening and elongation
of the muscle or muscle group and thus enhance its flexibility and
elasticity.
Stretching exercises have traditionally been included as part of the
trainingand recovery program. It's important to note that, maximal
strength, number of repetitions and total volume is different for each
type of stretching.
The three different types of stretching are:
Static stretch (SS)
Dynamic stretch (DS)
Pre-contraction stretching:
Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation stretching (PNFS)

HOW TO
STRETCH
Stretching correctly will increase your flexibility and reduce the risk of
you getting injured when exercising or going about your daily life. Start
with some very basic stretches if you're a beginner. Work on stretches when
your muscles are warmed up, such as after you've been exercising or at least
walking around a bit. You can do these stretches every day for increased
flexibility or just 3-4 times a week. If you're more advanced, try stretches
that target individual muscles and areas of your body.
