What to Expect?
Stretching should create a feeling of tension in the muscle being stretched…and should not be painful.
- Each stretch should be held for at least 30 seconds. You should not bounce or stretch ballistically
- You can repeat each stretch 3-5 times. As you repeat stretches the amount of muscle tension felt will ease
- During stretching sessions you should relax and breathe normally
- Your complete stretching routine can take as little as 10 minutes or last as long as 1 hour. It is best to perform your flexibility routine as a separate exercise session and after either some light form of activity ie after your muscles are warm or at the end of the day
- If you have been inactive, had recent injury or surgery or wish to have a personal flexibility program designed you should consult your physio
