Flexibility

Statistic stretching is when you stretch as far as you can, and hold it for at least 30 seconds.
Ballistic stretching is when you stretch.....but in a bouncing motion. So kinda like jumping jacks. Yeah. Just like jumping jacks. Or doing lunges. It's a stretch that never really allows the muscle to get warmed up, it just goes straight to pushing the muscle into that range of motion even though it's not ready.

Honestly, I like ballistic stretching more. Statistic stretching is boring to me. I'd rather be moving and stretching than just sitting there and stretching. Statistic stretching hurts more for me too.

thanks for reading.
