Definition

Dynamic stretching moves joints actively through a chosen range rather than holding one end position. Exercise, range, speed and repetitions determine the stimulus, so it is not one uniform intervention.

Evidence and use

Systematic-review findings on immediate performance depend on protocol and outcome. Dynamic stretching can be part of a warm-up, but evidence does not establish one exact duration for everyone or guarantee injury prevention, faster sprinting, greater strength or HYROX® performance.
