In the majority of exercise programs, flexibility training consists of a sequence of stretches that will gently extend the muscles to allow for a greater range of mobility. There are a number of different types of stretches that can be used in the program for maximum benefit. The first is the static stretch, which involves moving slowly into a stretch and then holding it for a short period of time. Ballistic stretching is used to force a limb beyond the normal range of motion, using the momentum of movement. Dynamic stretching is the process of using swinging motions to bring the limbs to a full range of motion. Flexibility training can use a single type of stretch that will slowly work all of the major joints and muscles of the body, or it can use a combination of stretching techniques in a single workout.
