How to stretch after exercise

Sitting in front of the computer every day will feel very tired, and you can’t sleep well at night. Even if you sleep deeply for one night, you still feel weak after waking up the next day. Many people will feel this. In fact, if you can develop some simple exercise habits, your mental state will be better. For example, simple warm-up and stretching activities should be carried out for the body before and after the exercise every day. In fact, even if you do not participate in the exercise, it is also good for the body to do more stretching at ordinary times. Stretching is a very important part of the exercise process and can never be ignored. How do you stretch after exercise?

How to stretch after exercise

Habitual stretching exercise can effectively make the blood of the body warm and the muscles warm, and even the bones and joints will become sufficiently lubricated. If there are sports arrangements in the follow-up, sports injuries can be avoided through simple stretching, including stretching the body after the end of the exercise to avoid muscle pain. I recommend several common stretching actions, and hope you can learn them.

1. Relax the muscles on the back of the thigh: when the body stands, the left leg steps forward, the toe is pointed, the heel is placed on the ground, the right knee is bent, and the two legs are parallel. At this time, the weight of the body is basically on the right leg, the hands are supported on the left knee, and then the weight of the body is pressed down until the muscles on the back of the left leg feel stretched. After adjusting the breathing for several seconds, repeat the action on the other leg.

2. Stretch the muscles in the front of the thigh: This is an important muscle group in the leg. Doing a good job in stretching is good for managing the leg lines and relaxing the leg muscles. When the body is standing, the left and right feet are separated and parallel, the same width as the hips, and then the hind feet are lifted back and pressed into the hips as much as possible. The body remains neutral, and the thighs are in a state of relying on each other at this time, so that the muscles in the front of the thighs can be stretched slightly.

3. Relax the muscles of the small legs: it’s the same to stand. It’s better to have a place where you can hold the armrest. One leg steps backward and stretches straight, and the other leg bends slightly in front. It’s like squatting. The upper body is slightly forward, but it’s necessary to ensure that the upper body is in a straight line, basically in line with the leg stepped backward. At this time, you can feel the stretch of the muscles of the rear leg. Please note that the treading action of the heel of the back leg is very important in this action. The wall is only for support. Do not use all the force on the arm.

The above content explains how to stretch after exercise. Although these actions are simple, if you can stretch after exercise every day or even if you don’t participate in the exercise, your body will be extremely comfortable. The above three small actions are only for the stretching of legs. In fact, there are also chest, arm and back. You can find relevant materials to learn.
