stretching exercises
Warming up muscles
Stretching exercises are movements designed to lengthen muscles and increase flexibility.
They typically involve extending a limb or body part and holding the position: I do stretching exercises before my morning run.
The phrase often appears in fitness contexts alongside strength training and cardio, forming a basic triad of physical conditioning.
