Answer
A
Ballistic stretching exercises never involve bouncing.
B
You should always stretch before warming up.
C
Ballistic stretching exercises can be harmful if done incorrectly.
D
Not all ballistic stretches require supervision.

Explanation

Ballistic stretching uses bouncing or jerking movements to push a stretch farther. If performed incorrectly, those movements can strain or injure muscles, so the true statement is that ballistic stretching exercises can be harmful if done incorrectly. Warming up before stretching is generally recommended, not stretching before warming up.
