Glossary AB CD EF GH IJ KL MN OP QR ST UV WX YZ Static Stretching A type of stretching where the limb is passively stretched and the stretch is held for a noticeable period of time. Eventually (usually after about 20 seconds), the muscle spindle reflex will relax. This will cause the limb to relax into the stretch and will help to increase the length of the stretched muscles (after many stretching sessions) and the range of motion. |
