How many times has someone told you don’t forget to stretch? Well in today’s day and age what does that exactly mean? Static stretching, dynamic stretching, rolling, self-myofacial release? It’s not just what’s appropriate but it all depends on whether it’s before, during or after your exercise routine that makes a big difference. While the verdict is still out on whether or not stretching can really aid in preventing injury, there is quite a bit of evidence that’s been gathered to comfortably argue that it can be highly beneficial from flexibility to maximizing peak performance in subsequent workouts.
While I could go on and on about the benefits of each of the terms I mentioned above I’ll spare you of my lecture now LOL I’ll provide you in class handouts so you have all the tools necessary to stretch properly and help increase your chances of staying injury free and maximizing your workouts!
