STRETCHING TABATA Flashcards
is a physical exercise that requires putting a body part in a certain position that’ll serve in the lengthening and elongation of the muscle or muscle group and thus enhance its flexibility and elasticity.
STRETCHING
This involves holding a stretch for a certain period of time, usually around 15-60 seconds. Static stretching is often performed after a workout or physical activity to help relax and elongate muscles. It can improve flexibility and gradually increase the muscle’s length over time. Examples of static stretches include touching your toes while seated or holding a quad stretch by pulling your foot towards your buttocks.
Static Stretching
stretching involves active movements that take your muscles through their full range of motion. It is commonly used as part of a warm-up routine before engaging in more intense physical activity. Dynamic stretching helps increase blood flow to muscles, improves coordination, and prepares the body for movement. Examples include leg swings, arm circles, and walking lunges.

In a traditional Tabata workout, there is 20 seconds of going all out and then 10 seconds of rest. This repeats 8 times for a total of four minutes. If you’re running, for example, you would sprint for 20 seconds and then walk or stop for 10 seconds. Similar to other types of HIIT workouts, Tabata focuses on going fast and then slow. This approach gives your body time to perform at an all-time high and then recover.
