What action is recommended when a client no longer gains desired range of motion from a specific stretch?

  1. Increase the intensity of the stretch

  2. Keep the stretch in the program for consistency

  3. Decrease the frequency or remove the stretch

  4. Switch to only dynamic stretches

The correct answer is: Decrease the frequency or remove the stretch

When a client is no longer gaining desired range of motion from a specific stretch, it is recommended to decrease the frequency of the stretch or remove it from the program altogether. This is because continuing to perform the stretch may lead to overstretching or injury, and switching to only dynamic stretches may not effectively target the specific muscle group or range of motion that the client needs. Increasing the intensity of the stretch may also lead to injury if the client's muscles are already at their limit for that particular stretch. Therefore, decreasing the frequency or removing the stretch would be the safest and most effective course of action in this situation.
