Stretching

rdfs:comment

Stretching is a very important, but often overlooked, aspect of Parkour, Freerunning, and tricking. It consists of stretching muscles, either to increase their range of motion or prevent cohesion. Caution: Monsters' elemental/neutral damage is modified by their statistics, which are in majority unknown. Stretching is the most common method employed for improving flexibility. The forces responsible for stretching a muscle can broadly be categorized into active stretching and passive stretching. Active stretching refers to when an agonist muscle moves a body part through the range of motion, and the force provided by the active contraction stretches the opposing muscles. Passive stretching refers to when outside forces assist in the stretching process; these extra forces contribute to muscular and fascial elongation. Examples include gravity, momentum, force applied by another person, or force applied by the indivdual, as in pulling on the feet to get a deeper hamstring stretch. Stretching is an important component of any exercise routine, whether it be cycling, running, swimming, or weight lifting. Stretching can improve range of motion and flexibility. While most experts agree that there is insufficient evidence to say that stretching definitely does reduce the risk of injury, most fitness and health professionals do recommend regular stretching. Two primary stretching methods exist: slow static stretching and ballistic stretching. We know that stretching is very important for athletes. Everyone has some experience with sports and stretching. Everyone knows of problems as well. Plus, stretching in the classroom and field is different.

Stretching is a very important, but often overlooked, aspect of Parkour, Freerunning, and tricking. It consists of stretching muscles, either to increase their range of motion or prevent cohesion. We know that stretching is very important for athletes. Everyone has some experience with sports and stretching. Everyone knows of problems as well. Plus, stretching in the classroom and field is different. * Many are making a great deal of money on stretching, an abundantly accepted dogma/tradition. * In Germany, stretching is largely scrutinized. In the US, stretching is largely accepted. Roll the dice, the stakes are yours. * "If the joints of an athlete or anyone are surrounded and supported by stronger muscles, then the chance of any trauma is reduced. If a joint in question becomes more flexible without a corresponding increase in muscular strength, injury probability is increased. * Certain ranges of motion do not necessarily mean less of an incidence of injury. On the contrary, pulling and pushing limbs indiscriminately into positions beyond normal proves nothing regardless of the so called research supporting such. * Peak Performance collection of articles reviewing stretching research Stretching is an important component of any exercise routine, whether it be cycling, running, swimming, or weight lifting. Stretching can improve range of motion and flexibility. While most experts agree that there is insufficient evidence to say that stretching definitely does reduce the risk of injury, most fitness and health professionals do recommend regular stretching. Two primary stretching methods exist: slow static stretching and ballistic stretching. Static stretching uses slow, sustained muscle lengthening to increase range of motion. Ballistic stretching uses jerky, bouncing movements to lengthen the target muscle. Most exercise professionals recommend slow static stretching over ballistic stretching because there is less chance of injury and muscle soreness. Nevertheless, ballistic stretching may be useful for anyone engaging in sports that involve ballistic movements. The following stretching exercises all utilize static stretching techniques. A well-rounded stretching routine includes at least one exercise for each of the major muscle groups of the body, including the legs, hips, lower back, shoulders, and neck. Stretching can be performed before or after exercise. Typically, exercise professionals recommend to stretch after exercise. If stretching is performed prior to exercise, it is recommended to perform a general warm-up before stretching to increase body temperature and to warm the muscles to be stretched. If stretching is performed after exercises, it is recommended to cool-down for 5-10 before stretching to let the heart rate and blood pressure come back down. Caution: Monsters' elemental/neutral damage is modified by their statistics, which are in majority unknown. Stretching is the most common method employed for improving flexibility. The forces responsible for stretching a muscle can broadly be categorized into active stretching and passive stretching. Active stretching refers to when an agonist muscle moves a body part through the range of motion, and the force provided by the active contraction stretches the opposing muscles. Passive stretching refers to when outside forces assist in the stretching process; these extra forces contribute to muscular and fascial elongation. Examples include gravity, momentum, force applied by another person, or force applied by the indivdual, as in pulling on the feet to get a deeper hamstring stretch. There are several types of stretching, to include static, ballistic, isometric, PNF, and dynamic.
