Sažetak
The word "flexibility" comes from Latin flectere or flexibilis which means to bend, bending. According to Milanovis [1], it is the ability to perform a motion by a large range of motion, and the most common measure of flexibility is a maximum range of motion of body parts in individual joint systems. Kinesiology operators, depending on intensity and duration, are a way of influencing on the muscle tone levels and improving the ability of the locomotor system in performing the maximum range of motion in one joint or series of joints, and nervous-muscular regulation of organism. Tasks of the part of the lesson in function of flexibility improvements are: determine which topological body regions we want to develop, establish the selection of exercises and stretching methods, and determine number of series, time intervals and breaks. All those tasks are conducted in accordance with objectives of the lesson. It can be a lifelong improving experience in different materials and space conditions and has a very wide range of application in real life, as well as in higher education institutions. At the University of Applied sciences of Slavonski Brod it is applied in every physical teaching activity, in the introductory, preparatory, primary and final part of the lesson. Improvement of flexibility is a significant characteristic in health focused way of life and should represent an important aim in physical exercising and education. The reason for writing this paper is that, due to the lack of habit and knowledge on proper performing of stretching technique, the risk of injury increases and optimal transformation and student development during exercising decreases. It is extremely important to educate, direct and motivate students to perform the flexibility exercises correctly for the purposes of achieving maximum functionality during exercising and health prevention.
