The point is to put stress and load on the muscles (approximately 15 to 20 seconds) without going through a range of motion. The stretch should be held at a comfortable position, putting just enough tension to stretch, but should not to be painful.
Be careful not to bounce as this could cause injury to the muscle. It is recommended to do 2 to 3 sets of each exercise.
Several of the most common exercises include:
Spinal twist
Hamstring stretch
Calf stretch
Chest stretch
