  • Muscular Endurance: Indicates the ability of muscles to sustain repeated contractions over time, important in endurance sports like swimming and cross-country skiing.
  • Flexibility: The capacity of a joint to move through its full range of motion, enhanced through practices like static and dynamic stretching.
  • Body Composition: Describes the proportion of fat to lean muscle mass in the body, influencing overall health and fitness levels.

Types of Stretching

  • Static Stretching: Involves holding a stretch position for a period of time without movement, examples include the hurdler stretch and the butterfly stretch.
  • Dynamic Stretching: Involves controlled, smooth movements that increase range of motion in joints, examples include high knees and butt kicks.
