Answer 1

pulling

Step-by-step explanation:

When stretching, the right way to stretch is to stretch until one feels the tension pull in the muscle. This pull is then held and sustained for a period of about 15 to 60 seconds. This considered the safest way to stretch, and it gives the muscles and connective tissue time to “reset” the stretch reflex.
