36. Following are the stretching ways for flexibility development:
Active stretching is where you are taking the muscle beyond its normal range of motion with assistance (PNF or with the
help of a partner)
Passive stretching allows the muscles and tendons to stretch naturally without the use of additional forces acting on the
muscle/tendon. The flexibility gains are not as great with passive stretching as it is with active stretching.
1. Static stretching is a technique where the muscle is slowly stretched and then held in the stretched position for several
seconds. This type of stretching allows the muscle to be relaxed so that a greater length can be achieved. It is the most
frequently.
2. Used and most recommended type of stretching. There is a low risk of injury with this technique.
3. PNF stretching is much longer stretching session when compared to the other types. It requires a partner‘s help to
utilize this technique. The use of a partner is so that there can be a contraction and relaxation phase. This type of
stretching is actually the most effective form of stretching, but it is also considered the most painful type of stretching,
4. Dynamic stretching is a technique that many athletes should be accustomed to. This type of stretching can be in the
form of leg swing walks or carioca just to name a few. This is a great way for teens to work on their flexibility in a fun

way. It allows them to be active and it can be done with groups and teas. This type of stretching goes for more than two
seconds and is done without stopping the movement.
5. Ballistic stretching is a type of stretching, but it is not recommended for improving flexibility. This type of stretching
could lead to muscle soreness and injury because it is possible that this technique could cause small tears in soft tissue
due to the bouncing movements that force the muscle to lengthen. Ballistic stretching due to the bouncing, could stretch
ligaments too far if the movement is not controlled.
37. Games and sports are essential for the all- round development of personality.
