When doing thigh stretches with a partner, which practice is especially important to help avoid injury?
Stretching at a slow, steady pace
True or False? The sooner you attend to swelling after an injury the better, and the best approach is to apply cold directly to the injuryed area right away.
TRUE
Icing should be stopped?
When the skin begins to feel numb
True or False? New evidence suggests that stretching immediately before exercise does not prevent overuse or acute injuries.
TRUE
T/F? Stretches must be held to obtain maximum range of motion because muscles are purely elastic.
False (viscoelastic)
T/F? Passive warming of a muscle before stretching or icing during the stretch can be used to increase the range of motion but will not prevent injury.
TRUE
The effectiveness of active warm-up to decrease stiffness appears to be related to the: (3 elements)
Type of warm-up, muscle tested, order of warm-up

To reduce skin impedance when applying electrical stimulation ______.
Wash the body part with soap and water.
Which of the following electrodes will stimulate more with direct current: a small positive electrode, a large negative electrode,d a small negative electrode, the electrodes produce equal stimulation, the disperse pad
