Which of the following is NOT a T in the 3 T's of stretching?

• A. Torque
• B. Time
• C. Temperature
• D. Tension

Answer: (A)

Torque is not part of the three T's used to describe stretching. The three T's are Temperature, Time, and Tension. Temperature refers to warming up the muscles so they’re more pliable; Time is how long you hold or perform the stretch; Tension is the amount of stretch or force you apply. Torque, which is a turning or rotational force, doesn't describe the stretching factors you control during a stretch, so it doesn’t belong in this framework.
