Static stretches are a fast and effective method to improve flexibility and maximize range of motion before a fixture. Some of these exercises include stretches for the hamstrings, quadriceps, and calves.

1. Hamstrings - sit with your legs extended and reach towards your toes.

2. Quadriceps - stand and pull your foot towards your buttocks, maintaining a straight posture.

3. Calves - place your hands against a wall with one leg back and heel on the ground.

   Aim to hold each stretch for 30 seconds and look to push your flexibility on each attempt.
