More and more people are picking up running as an exercise.
However, don’t forget the importance of proper stretching!
Stretching increases flexibility and may help to prevent
injuries and strains, as well as to reduce post-training
soreness. When stretching, go slowly and gradually, avoiding
bouncing movements; Hold stretches for at least twenty seconds
and up to sixty seconds. While not a problem in the summer,
stretching when muscles are cold may strain muscles. Most of
these tips are common sense but many people get injured because
they take shortcuts. So, stay on course and take care of your
body and you’ll get the most out of your running routine!
