Bouncing the body while performing a stretch is not a key point of stretching. Ballistic stretching is when you are bouncing while you stretch. This is harmful and should not be advisable because in this form of stretching, your muscles can stretch too far and too fast which can result to a pulled muscle.

The first alternative is correct (A).

Stretching is a way to stimulate the muscles and ligaments of the human body to improve posture, breathing and pre-disposition of people. Several activities are part of stretching, such as correct breath control, the time each session should last, and the natural discomfort. However, bounceing the body is not part of stretching practices, it is part of some aerobic activities.
