For improving limb movement range. Some general params:

5 minutes per group
5 times per week (minimum)
30 secs of stretching per group seems optimal
Light warm up beforehand reduces injury risk

Translating this to actionable series:

Warm up
Do from 2 to 4 30s repetitions per group per session
Rest 60s in between repetitions [1]

#TODO: Add a warm up entry #TODO: add muscle group and stretch examples entry

[1]: There is no definitive research around this topic, but doubling the time you keep stretching seems reasonable
