Some bleeding is normal, especially with the first bowel movement after surgery. For a few days after surgery, drink liquids and eat a bland diet (plain rice, bananas, dry toast or crackers, applesauce). Then you can return to regular foods and gradually increase the amount of fiber in your diet.
Ballistic Stretching. Ballistic stretching is a type of stretching that involves rapid and bouncing movements in a repetitive way and aims at moving the engaged muscles and joints beyond their normal range of motion so as to gradually improve the performing personâs flexibility.
It is similar to the hold-relax technique except that a dynamic or ballistic stretch is employed in place of the final passive stretch. Notice that in the hold-relax-contract, there is no final passive stretch. It is replaced by the antagonist-contraction which, via reciprocal inhibition (see section Reciprocal Inhibition), serves to relax and further stretch the muscle that was subjected to the initial passive stretch.
