STRETCHING DOES A BODY GOOD

by Carlene Murray

Stretching your body is one of the most important parts of working out. It is a key component to building strength and flexibility. That’s why Board30 Naples incorporates stretching into all of our routines and classes. We know how important it is to stretch your body.

THE IMPORTANCE OF STRETCHING

A good stretch before, during, and after a workout can make all the difference. Stretching can help relieve pain, increase flexibility, improve circulation, and even help you relax. Our muscles shorten and tighten as we age, but a good stretch can help them remain flexible and lengthened. This also helps increase the blood flow to the muscles and flush out any byproducts or waste that may be hiding out. Flexible, loose muscles often experience fewer injuries and soreness. This means less pain after a workout and a more enjoyable lifestyle. We encourage our clients to stretch before and after each workout to maintain a healthy and safe lifestyle.
