What should clients do if they experience movement restrictions during an exercise?

  1. Continue with the exercise

  2. Only stretch after finishing the exercise

  3. Stop and dynamically stretch the restricted regions

  4. Apply heat to the area

The correct answer is: Stop and dynamically stretch the restricted regions

Clients should stop and dynamically stretch the restricted regions if they experience movement restrictions during an exercise. Continuing the exercise may further aggravate the restricted area and could lead to potential injury. Only stretching after finishing the exercise may not provide immediate relief or address the restriction at its source. Applying heat to the area may temporarily alleviate discomfort, but it is not a solution for addressing a restriction. By stopping and dynamically stretching, clients can target the specific area that is restricted and work towards increasing mobility and range of motion. It is important to not push through the restriction as it could cause further strain and damage.
