I found a new way of stretching after running – Static stretching.
The best place that static stretches will be at the end of my run as part of the cool-down, not at the beginning of a running session. Static exercises help bring our body back toward a state of rest and recovery and allow us to relax and lengthen the muscles that we have put under stress during my run.
Placing static stretches at the beginning of a training session, on the other hand, tends to interrupt the natural flow of an optimal warm-up and fails to prepare you fully for the dynamic movements that follow.
Dynamic Mobility exercises warm you up, stretch you out and keep you moving as you make the transition from resting to highenergy activity. You’ll feel a sense of warmth and relaxation in your muscles – and perspire lightly by the end of your five- to seven-minute warm-up period.
Dynamic Mobility exercises work on joints from your neck to your toes – and if you’re wondering why you should attempt to expand the mobility of your neck and shoulders when the ‘prime movers’ during your workout are probably your legs, wonder no more.
Since I do my run solo with no running body, it’s good to be aware of this new technique to prevent injury- this is called Sport Science.
I am very happy na hindi umulan kanina that is why I got this new running route early in the morning at started running at 4:00am. weeeeh!
