Stretching is one thing that I personally neglect and I have put it on my personal goals for bootcamp these next two weeks. When you stretch you are improving or increasing your muscle elasticity and gaining a greater range of motion, thus helping prevent injuries to tendons, ligaments, and muscles.
One reason I decided to start my new stretching routine is I realized I can’t touch my toes.
Stretching increases blood supply to the muscles and joints which allow for greater nutrient transportation and improves the circulation of blood through the entire body. I struggle with stretching, always making excuses or just forgetting about it even when I know I need to make it a priority.
I personally find that including a cool down in my workout is much more important than stretching, but I love to stretch, so I usually include it all the same!
My favorite are hamstring stretches…they also get my lower back a little too, which feels great.
