Strech like a rubber band!

There are four different types of streaching techniques:

• Static
• Dynamic
• Ballistic
• PNF(proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation)

The most effective way to increace range of motion in your joints, and to prevent injuries, is to combine a mixture of static with dynamic streaching techniques, after your warm up activity, so that your muscles are plyable and relaxed.

Breath slowly and controllably, so that the streach reflex in your muscle don't activate causing your muscles to contract, therefore not achieving a full range of motion.
