Key takes

  • Hold static stretches for 15-30 seconds and do 2-4 repetitions for maximum ROM (range of motion) gains, and repeat for at least 2 - 3 times per week
  • Static stretching prior to exercise reduces muscle strength and performance in running and jumping
  • Contraction of a muscle performed immediately before it is stretched is effective at increasing ROM
  • Stretching is effective for rehabilitation from various injuries
  • Static stretching -> flexibility involving sports, dynamic stretching -> jumping and running
  • Stretching has not been shown to be effective at reducing the incidence of overall injuries
