Explanation:

7. injuries prevention is key for improvemnt of general health

9. true if done carefully but general warm up is always good before anything else

10. ballistic stretching could cause strains to your muscles if they are not warm enough

11. ballistic stretching is when we bounce on a stretched position

12. dynamic stretching is the best technique to warm up your muscle before physical activities - you can also use some static stretches depending on the needs of what comes next in your training but avoid ballistic stretches

13. this is a good amount of time to get every muscle group ready for exercise

14. if the movement is hold for about 10 second in a static position, there must not be bounces or oscillations otherwise it becomes ballistic

15. because the purpose of a warm up is to speed up heart rate and breathing so that the oxygenated blood can be pumped to each muscle group
