Stretching is the most overlooked aspect of fitness programs but it’s a problem that’s easily corrected. All it takes is five minutes at the end of your training session and you’ll start to reap the rewards. Stretching helps to improve flexibility, speeds up recovery, helps to improve circulation and aids in stress relief. It can also help to decrease lower back pain as a key culprit is tight hamstrings! Although stretching is built into your personal training sessions here at the studio, don’t forget to include some stretches after your strength and cardio session at home. Some key points to remember: hold your stretches for anywhere from 10-60 seconds, make sure you’re in a pain free range, don’t bounce at the end of the movement and remember to breath. Happy Stretching!
