It is easy to forget about stretching or choose to skip stretching as a way to shorten workout time. Skipping your stretching might save you time in the short term, but it leads to a higher chance of pulled muscles or other injuries that could hinder you from training or exercising. Taking shortcuts at the expense of stretching is not the road you want to take.If you’re looking for a generic stretching regiment to loosen up tight muscles be sure to check out just a few of the ways you can stretch out on the BOSU® Balance Trainer. Be sure to educate yourself or talk with a trainer about stretching that is right for you and your training routines. Or, if you already know, don’t give into the temptation of skipping your sessions.
Happy stretching. May the power of flexibility be ever on your side.
