What does Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF) involve?

  1. Rapid, bouncy movements

  2. Contracting a muscle before stretching it

  3. Only static stretches

  4. Dynamic stretching only

The correct answer is: Contracting a muscle before stretching it

PNF (Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation) involves contracting a muscle before stretching it. Option A is incorrect because rapid or bouncy movements are associated with ballistic stretching, not PNF. Option C is incorrect because PNF includes not only static stretches, but also dynamic and isometric stretching. Option D is incorrect because PNF involves not only dynamic stretching, but also other types of stretching.
