(HealthDay News) — Flexibility helps prevent injury. Young athletes should stretch muscles before and after playing a sport, says the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons.
After warming up with a brisk walk, the AAOS suggests these stretches:

    • Forward and side lunges.
    • Standing quad pull.
    • Seated straddle.
    • Knees to chest.
