HOW CAN FLEXIBILITY BE IMPROVED IN THE 3 STAGES OF A
WORKOUT?
1. WARM UP
2. ACTIVITY/WORKOUT
3. COOL DOWN
![Page 7: FLEXIBILITY. TERM Flexibility- The ability to move a joint through the full range of motion.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e585503460f94b51634/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
WARM-UPWarm-Up
– Joint Rotation– Aerobic activity
Purpose: Increase core temperature and get muscles ready to be stretched
![Page 8: FLEXIBILITY. TERM Flexibility- The ability to move a joint through the full range of motion.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e585503460f94b51634/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
ACTIVITY/WORKOUT
– Dynamic Stretching- Any activity that includes controlled leg and arm movements through a full range of motion can improve flexibility
– Example- lifting weights, running, throwing, bounding

Cool DownSlow body down
– walking, light jogging
Static stretching– Stretch to point of slight discomfort
– Hold 10 to 30 seconds
![Page 10: FLEXIBILITY. TERM Flexibility- The ability to move a joint through the full range of motion.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e585503460f94b51634/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
TYPES OF STRETCHING
Static
Dynamic
Ballistic
![Page 11: FLEXIBILITY. TERM Flexibility- The ability to move a joint through the full range of motion.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e585503460f94b51634/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
MUSCLES THAT NEED THE MOST STRETCHING
Pectorals (Chest muscles) Deltoids (Front of shoulder) Hip Flexors (Front of Hip
Joint) Hamstrings (Back of Thigh) Adductors (Inside of Thigh) Gastrocnemius (Calf
Muscles) Erector Spinae (Lower back)

JOINT LAXITY
When a joint allows bones to move in ways not intended (looseness)

INTENSITY
Stretch to slight discomfort, not to pain.
![Page 19: FLEXIBILITY. TERM Flexibility- The ability to move a joint through the full range of motion.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e585503460f94b51634/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
TIME
Each stretch is done for 10 to 30 seconds. Rest 10 seconds and repeat.
![Page 20: FLEXIBILITY. TERM Flexibility- The ability to move a joint through the full range of motion.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e585503460f94b51634/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
TYPE
Stretch all body parts starting from one end of your body and working to the other end. Be sure to stretch muscles you will be using in the activity.

FLEXIBILITY PRINCIPLES
![Page 22: FLEXIBILITY. TERM Flexibility- The ability to move a joint through the full range of motion.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e585503460f94b51634/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
OVERLOAD
Stretching muscles further than normal
![Page 23: FLEXIBILITY. TERM Flexibility- The ability to move a joint through the full range of motion.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e585503460f94b51634/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
PROGRESSION
As flexibility improves, increase time, stretch further, and more frequently
![Page 24: FLEXIBILITY. TERM Flexibility- The ability to move a joint through the full range of motion.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e585503460f94b51634/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
SPECIFICITY
Flexibility only improves in the joints you stretch
![Page 25: FLEXIBILITY. TERM Flexibility- The ability to move a joint through the full range of motion.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e585503460f94b51634/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
MAINTAINING FLEXIBILITY
Must continue to stretch or gains will be lost
![Page 26: FLEXIBILITY. TERM Flexibility- The ability to move a joint through the full range of motion.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e585503460f94b51634/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
CONCLUSION
Why is Flexibility the most ignored component of fitness?
How will ignoring flexibility effect your long-term health?
