Stretching protocol design is the process of creating a customized plan for stretching exercises aimed at improving flexibility, range of motion, and preventing injuries. A well-designed stretching protocol takes into account the individual’s specific needs, including age, flexibility, activity level, and any existing injuries or conditions.

Stretching protocols typically include dynamic stretches for warming up, static stretches for improving flexibility, and techniques for increasing joint mobility. The goal is to enhance muscle function, improve posture, and reduce the risk of strain or injury.

Designing an effective stretching protocol is essential for improving physical performance, maintaining mobility, and supporting long-term health, especially for athletes or individuals with specific rehabilitation needs.
