An example of ballistic stretching is the sitting toe touch. It can also be performed as a static stretch. The individual sits on the ground with upper body perpendicular to the legs, knees extended and legs together. The person then reaches the arms toward the ankles and bounces back to the starting position. Every reach after that should be aimed toward the end position being further away than it was in the previous repetition.
Another example is an individual standing up and bending over to touch the toes with the knees straight and bouncing back up. Almost any stretch involving bouncing-type movements is most likely a ballistic stretch.

Ballistic stretching is considered unsafe. Ballistic stretching is stretching with fast jerky movements, snapping the muscle to its limits very quickly instead of slowly and gently stretching it.

There are several types of flexibility exercises, including static stretching, dynamic stretching, ballistic stretching, and PNF (proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation) stretching. Static stretching involves holding a stretch for an extended period to improve overall flexibility. Dynamic stretching incorporates movement and is often used as a warm-up to enhance range of motion. Ballistic stretching utilizes bouncing motions to push muscles beyond their normal range, while PNF stretching combines stretching and contracting of the muscle for increased flexibility.
Stretching techniques can be categorized into static, dynamic, and ballistic stretching. Static stretching involves holding a muscle in a lengthened position, promoting flexibility and relaxation. Dynamic stretching incorporates movement and is often used as a warm-up to prepare muscles for activity. Ballistic stretching involves bouncing movements to push the body beyond its normal range of motion, but it carries a higher risk of injury if not performed correctly.
Ballistic stretches involve the lengthening of muscles during movement. They are used for warming up for training and competing in sports. These exercises are also known as dynamic stretches. The opposite of the ballistic stretch is the passive or static stretch where the stretch position is held in pace for approximately 30 seconds.
The different types of stretching techniques include static stretching, dynamic stretching, ballistic stretching, and proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) stretching. Each technique has its own benefits and is used for different purposes in improving flexibility and preventing injury.
