What are the general parameters for stretching mentioned?

  1. Stretch until pain occurs

  2. Stretch all body parts in each session

  3. Stretch regions focused on in a training session

  4. Avoid dynamic stretches

The correct answer is: Stretch regions focused on in a training session

Stretching until pain occurs (option A) can lead to injury and should be avoided. It is important to listen to your body and stop when you feel discomfort, but not actual pain. Stretching all body parts in each session (option B) may not be necessary or suited for every individual, as different activities and training sessions may require different areas of focus for stretching. This option could also lead to overstretching and potential injury. Avoiding dynamic stretches (option D) is not a general parameter for stretching. Dynamic stretches can be beneficial in certain situations, such as before a workout, to help warm up the body and prepare it for movement. The general parameters for stretching (option C) mention focusing on specific regions that will be used in a training session. This means tailoring your stretches to the particular muscles or areas of the body that will be utilized during your workout or activity.
