Answer:

Causes contraction of the muscles

Step-by-step explanation:

Ballistic stretching utilizes the energy of a moving body or an appendage trying to constrain it past its typical scope of movement. This is extending, or "heating up", by skipping into (or out of) an extended position, utilizing the extended muscles as a spring which hauls you out of the extended position.

This stretching is not usually recommended as the chances of injury in this stretching are at higher risk.
