We are a group of students from Universidad de Alicante who are studying a degree in Physical Activity and Sports Sciences. This blog is made in order to help people to keep fit and improve their sport performance at home.
Good evening everyone!! Now it is time for other group of muscles to be stretched by the PNF technique.

Good morning everyone!! Today I woke up with enthusiasm of talking to you about this matter, the lower body dynamic stretching!

Hello
partners! In the previous post, we saw the upper body static stretching, but
this time we are going to talk about this kind of stretching in the lower body.
As
we know, the static stretching consists in an elongation of a particular muscle
or group of muscles to the maximum point that they can and keep it in that
position during a number of seconds. In this type of stretching, the speed which
the movement is going to be carried out with is not the most important thing. (Arredondo-Saldaña,
n.d.)
In particular, the lower body static stretching is very important to prevent muscular injuries in calf, quadriceps, hip, hamstrings, ankle, etc.
As we learnt in the previous post, the static stretching must have a duration of 15 seconds (Thomas, Bianco, Paoli, & Palma, 2018). In the following video, we are able to see the best exercises for lower body static stretching.
