After a workout our muscles get tight and our bodies can feel a little stiff, but good and strong. Incorporating stretching into your daily routine, whether it be when you wake up, or when you go to bed at night. It's good to stretch before your workout and after.
It keeps you limber to help decrease chances of injury if you fall, and keeps your body healthy and strong. Plus, it even helps you workout even harder.
Things to remember:
**When you stretch, don't bounce up and down, just carefully let your body relax into the stretch and take deep breaths.
**Hold each stretch for at least 30 seconds. It get's easier as you go. If it's too hard the first time, hold for 10 seconds, release, switch sides and then repeat for a longer period of time.
**Stretch daily, spend at least 10 or more minutes on a good period of time to wake up and stretch your body out.
