Question

which definition best describes flexibility?
○ the ability to move the muscles and joints through a full range of motion
○ the ability of the muscles to extend beyond one’s natural range of motion
○ the ability of the muscles to stretch in response to outside force
○ the ability of the joints and muscles to expand during exertion

Explanation:

Flexibility is defined as the ability to move muscles and joints through their full range of motion. The second option (extending beyond natural range) can be harmful. The third option (stretching only in response to outside force) is too limited. The fourth option (expanding during exertion) is not the standard definition.

Answer:

the ability to move the muscles and joints through a full range of motion
