Stretching can enhance fitness by lengthening, strengthening and lubricating muscles. Also, stretching can delay muscle soreness and increase physical and mental relaxation!
To get started;
- Stretch after your muscles are warmed up (warm up by doing a short 5-minute walk or jog)
- Hold each stretch for about 20 seconds
- 3-5 repetitions for each stretch with 15 seconds of rest in between
- Slow relaxed breathing, inhaling through the nose and exhaling through the mouth
Go HERE for some simple stretches you can at home or in the office.
