Watch on YouTube

YouTube instructional clip (hosted by Matt of Magnum Fitness) introducing and explaining ballistic stretching: a technique that uses momentum to push a limb beyond its normal range of motion (described as "dancing into" a stretch and using the stretched muscle as a spring), with a toe-touch example. The segment is a brief, single-speaker explanation and demonstration.

Hey, guys. Matt here from Magnum Fitness. We are going to talk about ballistic stretching. Ballistic stretching uses the momentum of a moving body or a limb in an attempt to force it beyond its normal range of motion. This is stretching by dancing into a stretched position, using this stretched muscle as a spring, which then pulls you out of a stretched position. So, for example, when you're trying to touch your toes, you would literally force them to touch their toes by using momentum. So very interesting way to do stretching. More advanced, but very handy.
