there are multiple debates on this. my thoughts are that you stretch the muscle before an athletic event for 30 seconds
Stretch it gently and hold the position, repeat as often as needed.
no when you bounce, you do not get a proper stretch at all. hold you stretch for 10 to 20 seconds without bouncing.
Downwards.
Stretch each muscle group slowly until a feeling of slight discomfort is felt. Hold the position for 20 seconds. Repeat a stretch at least three times.

Sit on the floor and stretch out your legs, and push your feet together. Then draw your legs back into bended position while keeping the two soles of your feet together. Hold your feet together with hands, and bring your head or chest to your feet.
It's easy. All you need to do is shatter the bones in your knee, then stretch the leg a little with braces, and hold it in that position until it has healed back. Then repeat.
In the muscle that is being streached...point to it then have the client take a deep breath and tell them they should feel the streach here ( point to the location of the muscle being streached.) Hold it for no more the 20 sec.
while jogging you primarily use your leg muscles so before going jogging you should stretch your quadriceps and hamstrings. stretch your quads by lifting your leg up behind your back and hold the podition for 10 seconds.

Static stretching Guidelines: - Hold each static stretch for 10-30 seconds each and repeat on each side 3 to 4 times - Total stretching time generally around 10 minutes minimum on each exercise day - Do not bounce or jerk back and forth - Warm up for 5-10 minutes before stretching when the muscles are at their warmest or stretch after aerobic exercise - never stretch cold muscles - Move slowly into a static stretch position - Stretch to a point of gentle tension, but not pain. - Inhale before start of stretch, exhale during stretch, and breathe evenly while holding the stretch at its end position Stop immediately if you feel pain that is more than a mere discomfort
