  6. What did I Research? • The proper technique and form of stretching for pre-activity and after static • Targeted only the most common types of physical injuries (there are many other injuries as well, etc.) • Neck/Head • Arms/Upper Back • Lower Back • Legs • Feet

  7. The Process • I basically shadowed Dana around at different games • Observed stretching techniques on athletes to conduct in my video • Watched Dana 1st hand deal with athletic injuries
