Try this simple 8 min routine after your next ride!
- Stretch 5-7 days a week for maximum benefit or minimum after each training session.
- Hold each stretch for 15-30 seconds. Stretches can be repeated 1-2 x’s
- Use slow controlled movement, never jerky or sudden. This could cause injury.
- NEVER stretch a cold muscle!!! EVER!!!! It’s like putting a rubber band in the freezer and taking it out and stretching it, snaps easy because it is not pliable cold. Same with your muscles. so stretch after a warm-up, workout but never cold stretch a muscle.
- Never stretch to the point of pain. should feel the muscle elongating but never pain.
