Stretching is something 100% of people probably don’t do enough of. It’s SOO much better when someone else does it for you!

I have never been flexible and can’t even come to close to touching my toes but after just 25 minutes I was able to. Of course this is temporary but can’t wait to go back to continue to work on it!

Flexibility is an important yet often overlooked component of a well-rounded fitness routine, especially for those who tend to gravitate to strength-based workouts. In addition to enhancing performance in the gym, incorporating movements into one’s workout routine that enhance joint stability and mobility will also address existing muscle imbalance and allow for greater ease and efficiency when performing activities of daily living (ADLs) outside of the gym. The following yoga poses focus on stretching the major muscle groups typically used when performing ADLs (calves, thighs, hip flexors, back, chest and shoulders) while enhancing mobility in the hips, ankles, shoulders and thoracic spine.
1. Downward facing dog (Pike Position)
Begin in hands-and-knees position with knees below hips and hands positioned slightly forward of shoulders. As you inhale, spread fingers wide, rooting both palms firmly into the mat while simultaneously tucking toes under. As you exhale, begin to extend legs, drawing hips and tailbone toward t ceiling, creating an inverted V-shape with the body as the heels move toward floor. The head and neck should be positioned between the upper arms with feet situated hip-width distance apart. Focus on maintaining length in the spine in this pose, releasing shoulders away from the ears and keeping knees as softly or deeply bent as needed, while continuing to root firmly and equally through both hands and feet.
2. Upward facing dog (Cobra position)
Lie on stomach with legs fully extended along the mat, with the tops of feet on floor. Place palms on the mat directly alongside the ribs, keeping elbows bent. As you inhale, press palms into the floor, extending arms while simultaneously lifting the torso and thighs off the mat. Allow hips to soften slightly toward the ground while at the same time lifting through the sternum. Soften shoulders away from the ears and maintain neutral alignment in the neck. If accessible, look upward only with the eyes.
Good Morning ☺️☕️ do you suffer with Tight Hamstrings? Try these 3 top exercises every day to help!!! 1- Deep squat to hamstring stretch- try to keep a upright posture with chest open and shoulders back. Hold onto your toes and then extend your legs. Hold for 3 seconds then repeat 5-10 times
2- Lying Hamstring stretch- One leg into chest, other one flat on the floor. Pull knee into chest grasping behind hamstring. Whilst flexing your ankle try to straighten your leg. Again hold for 3-5 seconds then relax and go again
3- Foam roll- One leg at a time or one stacked on top of another if your a little more hardcore! Ps foam rollers are very cheap to buy and a great tool to have at home!
Enjoy

Flexi Fridays ☺️
Did you know that stretching also activate muscle protein synthesis aka hypertrophy aka muscle growth? Yes, yes you can build muscle through active AND passive stretching!
Good news for those who love flexibility training.
For those who want to get henched but skip the stretch post workout: time to get your flex on?
