LOWER BODY STRETCH COMBO
Let’s face it, we’re all guilty of skipping out on stretching pre/post workout.
Having danced from a young age, stretching has always been a priority for me. But the benefits go far beyond helping with your grande battements.
Irregardless of your sport/training goals, stretching can help with the following:
• To increase range of motion
• To increase blood flow
• Can help to reduce muscle soreness/stiffness
• Help to lengthen muscles which increases elasticity
So next time you train, try to put aside an extra 10mins and have a real good stretch out, listening to your body and what it needs.
Here’s a little combo I like to do to help stretch out my legs and work on flexibility.
Spend around 30 secs in each position, breathing into the muscles and of course repeat everything on the other side!
