What is the appropriate technique for stretch intensity?

  1. Stretching until pain is felt

  2. Using two fingers to extend until slight discomfort

  3. Pushing into extension until just before pain

  4. Avoiding any sensation of discomfort

The correct answer is: Pushing into extension until just before pain

Stretch intensity refers to the amount of tension or force applied during a stretch. Option A is not recommended as it can cause injury. Stretch intensity should be increased gradually without causing pain. Option B does not specify how much tension should be applied, making it difficult to measure intensity. Option C is the appropriate technique as it suggests stretching until just before pain is felt, indicating a safe and appropriate level of intensity. Option D does not provide any guidance on how to achieve the desired intensity.
