A final difference between static and ballistic stretching stems from overall approaches. The approach of static stretching is gentle, moderate and relaxing. You breathe deeply while gently holding a stretch. On the other hand, the approach of ballistic stretching is forceful, extreme and tension-inducing.
Hemoglobin is a protein in red blood cells that transports oxygen throughout the body. A hemoglobin test is used to determine how much hemoglobin is in the blood. The hemoglobin test may be performed as part of a routine health exam or during a time of illness, but it's often done as part of a complete blood count (CBC).
The total hemoglobin test estimates the amount of hemoglobin in the blood, and gives an idea of the bloodâs ability to carry oxygen. (Though not part of a CBC, a laboratory technique called electrophoresis may be used to detect the presence of abnormal hemoglobins, which often do not work as well as normal ones.)
