The Importance of Dynamic Streching

Dear Reader,

If you play sports you know how important stretching is, it can prevent injuries and increase your athletic performance. The are many types of stretching one can do such as dynamic,static, and ballistic. Out of these three I prefer dynaimc stretching which involves constant movement of the muscles you are going to use. For example before I play a football game I make sure to do A Skips, B skips, and soldiers to warm up my legs. I also do lunges and punches to get my nervous system ready to expend extreme amounts of force. I have never like static stretching before a game I feel it doesn't get my blood moving and ready to play.I find static stretching more useful for relaxing purposes. So next time you play a sport make sure to dynamic warm ups.

Sincerely,
Boblack
