Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The best choice would be to hold the stretch for 15 seconds and perform four repetitions, three days per week. This allows for a longer duration of stretching and a higher frequency of training, which is important for improving flexibility. A single repetition or only once per week would not provide enough stimulus for improvement, and holding the stretch for only 6 or 10 seconds may not be enough to elicit a significant improvement in flexibility.
