On Fitness Friday, stretch to feel the release of that early morning tension in the muscles and stiffness in the joints. Itβs so important for range of motion, flexibility, increased blood flow to the muscles and of course for the prevention of injury.
All this will help you function with ease - movements like lifting, pulling, bending, reaching, and twisting are paramount to mobility in our everyday lives. How much do you need to stretch? Twice daily would be the ideal - a gentle yoga stretch early morning and a more purposeful one during that afternoon slump will do amazing things for your energy levels too.
You donβt have to spend hours doing this - even a few minutes twice a day will yield delicious benefits. Post-workout stretches are a must, of course. The photos show a quadriceps stretch; perfect after a run, a brisk walk, a heavy leg session, or after being seated for long periods π
