    Chapter 2: Dynamic Stretching

    Summary

    Dynamic stretching involves moving while stretching to prevent muscle weakness and decrease the risk of injury. Brad Kearns demonstrates four gentle dynamic stretches: knee to chest, pull quad, open hips, and side to side. These stretches target common areas of tightness and aim to improve range of motion. Kearns recommends performing these stretches before every workout, but cautions against overstretching the delicate hamstring muscles.
