What should you pay attention to when stretching?
In order to achieve success in stretching exercises, there are a few things you should keep in mind. On the one hand, you should do the training regularly, otherwise the success will not be achieved. It should always be possible to do the exercises without any complaints.
If pain occurs, you should consult a doctor urgently and stop the stretching exercises. Stretching exercises should never be performed with cold muscles. Before each stretching programme, a small warm-up programme should be carried out to prepare the body.
It is also important to start, perform and finish the individual exercises in a calm and controlled manner. Jerky and hasty movements can lead to injuries of the ligaments and muscles. Calm breathing supports the relaxing and releasing character of the stretching exercises.
You should always take enough time for your stretching program. Stretching exercises carried out under pressure may have been performed incorrectly and therefore not have the desired effect. In addition, incorrect positions can creep in. Therefore you should always make sure that you do the exercises correctly and do not make any evasive movements.
