As we know, the dynamic stretching is very useful and secure for any kind of sport, and in this post I am going to explain you this type of stretching for the lower body muscles.

But this time, like in the previous post, I am going to talk about this stretching in a PDF document, so… here you are!!

I hope you really enjoy the post and learn about it. See you!!

UPPER BODY STATIC STRETCHING

In the static stretching, the movement and elongation of the muscular tissues occur very slowly, based on a maintained position, which means a greater safeguard for the soft tissues (M. D. Sánchez, B. de la Cruz , J. Algaba, 2012).

Several authors have pointed out the importance of the static stretching as part of sports training and sport medicine indicating that it is the most common and simple stretching method to increase the flexibility of a muscle or group of muscles (M. D. Sánchez , B. de la Cruz , J. Algaba, 2012).

The static stretching must have a duration of 15 seconds (Thomas, Bianco, Paoli, & Palma, 2018) and the best stretching exercises for the upper body are included in the following video (Arredondo-Saldaña, n.d.), (Grave, 2011), (Runner et al., n.d.):
