|
|
Activates both the neuromuscular systems and improves their co-ordination resulting in more fluent/biomechanically efficient movements
|
|
|
Best replicates the actions likely to be performed shortly there after (more specific) to reduces likelihood of unexpected movements and joint pressures
|
|
|
Has an associated increase in resp. & heart rates, blood flow, oxygen uptake, etc. thus better preparing the whole body and not just the joint for performance
|
|
|
All of the above

Detailed explanation-1: -This form of stretching improves speed, agility and acceleration. It involves the active tightening of your muscles and moving your joints through their full range of motion throughout the stretch.
Detailed explanation-2: -"Dynamic stretches will stimulate reflexes in your tendons and muscles, and can also help your body recognize, through movement, its position in space, rather than relying purely on visual cues.” Prior to exercise, static stretching can be effective when paired with light activity that gets the heart pumping.
Detailed explanation-3: -Dynamic stretches are active movements where joints and muscles go through a full range of motion. They can be used to help warm up your body before exercising. Dynamic stretches can be functional and mimic the movement of the activity or sport you’re about to perform.
Detailed explanation-4: -Research has shown that dynamic stretching is effective for increasing flexibility, maximal muscle strength, sprint and vertical jump performance.
