Dynamic Stretching
A dynamic stretch is a stretch where motion is involved. The end position is not held. Ballistic stretching is a form of dynamic stretching that uses even more effort to force the muscle beyond it's limits (more intensive & more likely to lead to an injury). A dynamic stretch is not necessarily a kick like shown here. Walking flat stances or lunges also stretch your muscles dynamically. Exercises like the one shown above can also be ballistic stretches.
