Stretching part 1!
Did you know that when you stretch, your goal is not to stretch muscles or tendons but to RELEASE FASCIAL RESTRICTIONS?
Muscles do not stretch. Restricted fascia is what makes our muscles tight, causing pain and limited range of motion.
I have the stretching discussion with every single client!
Are you stretching?
People don’t stretch for a variety of reasons:
they don’t know what to do
they feel like they don’t have enough time
they feel they are not “flexable enough”
they don’t think it will help
People who do stretch are often not stretching correctly:
not holding a stretch long enough
pushing the stretch too far
bouncing or forcing
Now you ask… how should you be stretching?
