Your muscles need the blood to supply them with nutrients to help the be in the best condition, and oxygen so that they can create energy to work. So by the body sending blood to the right areas it will get things to the muscle that they need. Because your blood is warn sending it to the muscles during sport will help warm them up, this is a advantage for performers as it helps prevent injuries. This system is good for most sports other than short ones like sprinting as its only last a very small period of time so it's good for mainly aerobic sports like football or hockey. This is because it takes a time to get the blood flowing in a different direction so if the event is only going to last 10 seconds it's not needed that much.

Blood supplies muscle tissues (just as does all other tissues of the body), with oxygen, nutrients, vitamins, minerals, enzymes, hormones, etc. Restriction of this supply affects the function of those cells, tissues, organs. Depending on the location of the muscles the result could be very serious, for example heart attack in case of blood flow restriction to the heart muscles. Additionally, efficient blood supply to the skeletal muscle can affect the insulin uptake, as well. Decreased insulin sensivity might be traced to insufficient blood supply to skeletal muscle tissue.

Splanchnic pooling refers to the physiological process where blood is redirected to the abdominal organs (splanchnic circulation) during exercise or stress. This can lead to a decrease in blood flow to other areas of the body, such as the muscles, which may impact exercise performance.
Stretching immediately after eating can potentially lead to discomfort or cramps because blood flow is redirected to the muscles being stretched instead of aiding in digestion. This can cause digestive issues and discomfort.
Hypnotizine is the active ingredient in pork, which widens arteries providing blood flow to the muscles and encourages growth, as hogs never stop growing.

No. Valves in the arteries are responsible for preventing back-flow of blood, not smooth muscles.
When running, the muscles in the legs and arms require increased blood flow to supply them with oxygen and nutrients. Additionally, the heart pumps more blood to deliver oxygen to these active muscles and remove waste products like carbon dioxide.
There are no muscles in arteries. Arterioles have muscles which can close them, but which has no normal flow control. (Used is stress/shock conditions only) Capillaries have a muscle which can stop all flow through it - it responds to oxygen pressure and is the ultimate control of blood flow.

The heat causes the circulatory system to "open up", increasing blood flow to the warmed muscles. The increased blood flow helps bring nutrients to the muscles and helps remove waste.
the sympathetic nervous system redirects blood flow from organs to the muscles and then the blood vessels of the organs constricts to prevent blood returning.
During exercise the trained body learns to redistribute blood from less active tissues like the digestive organs & kidneys to the heart & skeletal muscles.
