Stretches you should be doing after your run!


5 STRETCHES YOU SHOULD BE DOING AFTER YOUR RUN ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿผโ€โ™€๏ธ

1. Quadriceps 
2. Psoas 
3. Soleus 
4. Hamstrings
5. Gastrocnemius 

Hold for 5 deep breaths, repeat 3 times.
1st set easy
2nd set medium 
3rd set your maximum stretch

No stretching = tight muscles = your running stride will shorten

When you strengthen a muscle you should also work to increase the flexibility to create a functional, balanced body that is less prone to injury. This is why I suggest doing more than one set.

Stretching is essential to training!

โ€œWhatever you strengthen you must lengthenโ€
