Our class came up with an interesting question for the ESB Science Blast
Does stretching improve your athletic performance?
Our class wanted to find out if stretching improved our athletic performance. So we invited another class in our school to come down to the PE hall to do five different activities they did them with and without stretching and the class did better after stretching in 4 of the 5 activities. This help us prove that stretching improves your athletic performance.
Cathal Lally from the ESB came in the 6th of April to listen to a presentation of our project. He was very impressed and gave us a trophy for such a good project.
Take a look at the video of the classes doing their warm up, stretches and speed bounce.
We believe that we proved that stretching definitely improves athletic performance.
