Answer:

  • Stretch each muscle group slowly until a feeling of slight discomfort is felt.
  • Hold the position for 20 seconds.
  • Repeat a stretch at least three times.

Step-by-step explanation:

Stretching involves extending the body or a part of it to its full length, usually to tighten the muscles. Thus, when stretching it is important to keep the position slowly for about 20 seconds until there is a little unpleasantness. Repetition improves the fullness of the straightening.
