7. Which of the following statements about stretching is FALSE? • Stretching is important to improve flexibility.
• You should stretch at the end of every workout session.
• When your muscles are warm they are more pliable, so there is less risk of injury when stretching.
• When the stretch becomes painful, try to reach farther.

DEFINITELY when the stretch becomes painful, try to reach farther

Explanation:

You can tear and seriously damage muscles and ligaments doing this. It's better to stretch in smaller incriments and to not do this.

no, because those are both different running competitions. while distance runners train their legs and their lungs to run long amounts of time, the sprinters are training their legs and their lungs to give all they have in the little amount of area they need to cover. the brain also plays a huge part in all of this.

the brain is the only thing in your body that sends messages to your body telling you to run. if you are a long distance runner and you have the mind set of a sprinter, you will not get anywhere. if you have a long distance mind set and you have to run 200m in 20 seconds then you will not make it in time.
